These are vehicle-year records whose recorded OEM ranges overlap this 2009 Ford Fusion. Overlap is not a guarantee that a specific wheel will install. Selected-wheel comparison is in the calculator below.
Evaluated 53 donor years. Listed 24 eligible overlaps (not all evaluated years are compatible). Showing all listed.
Years grouped because recorded compatibility evidence is equivalent. Each year keeps its own page.
Dataset suggestionHub-centric rings ≈ 67.1 → 63.4 mm – not a verified installation requirement.
Hub-centric rings of about 67.1 → 63.4 mm mm may be relevant if the wheel bore is larger than the hub; they cannot enlarge a smaller bore.

Recorded vehicle-side thread for the 2009 Ford Fusion is M12x1.5. This donor year is recorded as 1/2"-20UNF. That is the vehicle stud/nut thread, not an intrinsic thread stamped on the wheel. Hardware must match this vehicle’s studs and the selected wheel’s seat and engagement. Existing hardware may be reusable if it already matches. Seat style is not in this dataset, so products are not a verified fit.

Recorded vehicle-side thread differs (1/2"-20UNF on the donor year vs M12x1.5 on the target vehicle). Hardware must match the target vehicle’s studs and the selected wheel’s seat. Existing hardware may be reusable if it already matches. Seat style is not confirmed in this dataset. Approximate position vs the mid OEM package: outer change 10.85 mm, inner change 1.85 mm. This uses aggregated width/offset ranges, not a specific wheel.

The following specifications are the known OEM fitment values provided for the 2009 Ford Fusion. Fitment can vary by trim, package, brake configuration, and replacement wheel design, so use these figures as a reference and confirm the vehicle information with the door-jamb label, owner’s manual, OEM service information, or the on-page wheel interchange calculator.
| Specification | Known value |
|---|---|
| Bolt pattern | 5x114.3 |
| Center bore | 63.4 mm |
| Thread size | M12 x 1.5 |
| Rim diameter | 16 inches |
| Rim width | 6.5 inches |
| Wheel offset | ET40, or 40 mm |
| Backspacing | 4.82 inches |
| Tire section width | 205 mm |
| Tire aspect ratio | 60 percent |
| Tire rim diameter | R16 |
These values describe the supplied reference fitment of a 16 x 6.5-inch wheel with ET40 offset and a 205/60R16 tire. The information provided does not identify every compatible trim, factory package, brake option, tire load rating, or speed rating. Confirm those details before ordering.
Use the calculator to compare wheels from a donor vehicle with the wheels installed on your 2009 Ford Fusion. Enter the donor vehicle details in the “Wheels from” section and the Fusion details in the “Installed on” section. Compare bolt pattern, center bore, wheel diameter, width, and offset before considering a purchase.
The calculator also allows custom wheel and tire entries. Adjust custom rim diameter, rim width, and offset to evaluate a specific aftermarket wheel. You can separately change tire section width and aspect ratio. When rim diameter changes, the calculator updates the tire diameter in the comparison, helping you evaluate overall diameter differences between setups.
A calculator result is a screening tool, not a substitute for a physical inspection. Confirm brake clearance, spoke clearance, fender clearance, suspension clearance, hub fit, lug engagement, and tire load and speed ratings before installation.
Plus sizing means using a larger wheel diameter with a lower-profile tire while attempting to keep the overall tire diameter close to the original reference. It can change steering response, ride comfort, noise, wheel damage risk, and tire cost. It may also affect speedometer behavior and the available clearance.
Use the calculator’s custom wheel and tire fields to compare a proposed setup with the supplied 16-inch reference. Review overall diameter, section width, wheel width, and offset together rather than evaluating one number in isolation. A wider tire or a more aggressive offset can create rubbing even when the bolt pattern is correct.
Do not assume that every wheel listed for another vehicle with a 5x114.3 pattern will fit. Center bore, brake clearance, lug-seat design, offset, load rating, and spoke shape still need to be checked. Exact compatible vehicle lists are not provided here, so verify any donor wheel through its manufacturer specifications and a physical test fit.
Clean the hub and wheel mounting surfaces before installation. Remove rust, dirt, paint buildup, and debris that could prevent the wheel from seating flat. Do not use excessive grease or anti-seize on the wheel studs or lug threads unless the vehicle or hardware manufacturer specifically permits it, because lubrication can change clamping force.
Install the wheel by hand and start each lug nut carefully to avoid cross-threading. Tighten the lugs in a star or crisscross sequence, then use the vehicle manufacturer’s specified torque value. The correct torque is not provided here and must be confirmed in the owner’s manual or OEM service information.
After installation, rotate each wheel by hand and check for contact with the caliper, suspension, inner wheel well, and fender. Lower the vehicle, recheck the torque with a calibrated torque wrench, and inspect the assembly again after a short drive and according to the wheel manufacturer’s guidance.
Useful supplies include a calibrated torque wrench, properly sized socket, jack and jack stands rated for the vehicle, wheel chocks, a tire pressure gauge, and a wire brush or suitable hub-cleaning tool. Use jack stands on a firm, level surface and follow the vehicle’s approved lifting points.
Choose wheel hardware, hub-centric rings, spacers, and adapters only when their specifications match the wheel and vehicle. Do not use damaged hardware or stack incompatible spacers.
What is the bolt pattern for the 2009 Ford Fusion?
The supplied OEM reference is 5x114.3. Confirm the exact vehicle and wheel application before purchase because bolt pattern alone does not establish complete fitment.
What is the center bore for this Fusion fitment?
The supplied center bore is 63.4 mm. A wheel bore smaller than the hub will not install. A larger bore may need an accurately sized hub-centric ring when appropriate.
What wheel size is listed for the 2009 Ford Fusion?
The supplied reference is a 16 x 6.5-inch wheel with ET40 offset and 4.82-inch backspacing. Trim-specific and package-specific variations are not identified in the provided data, so confirm the original equipment specification for the vehicle.
What tire size is included in the supplied reference?
The supplied reference is a 205/60R16 tire. Tire load and speed ratings were not provided, so verify the required ratings using the vehicle’s tire information label, owner’s manual, or OEM service information.
Can I use any 5x114.3 wheel on a 2009 Ford Fusion?
No. The wheel must also have suitable center bore, offset, width, brake and spoke clearance, lug-seat compatibility, and adequate load rating. Use the calculator for an initial comparison, then confirm the wheel manufacturer’s specifications and perform a careful test fit.
How does the wheel interchange calculator compare custom sizes?
Enter the donor wheel in “Wheels from” and the Fusion in “Installed on.” You can then adjust custom rim diameter, width, and offset, along with tire section width and aspect ratio. Changing rim diameter updates the tire diameter shown in the comparison.
What lug thread size is provided for this fitment?
The supplied thread size is M12 x 1.5. Confirm that the lug nut seat and engagement match the specific wheel. Thread size by itself does not confirm hardware compatibility.
Where can I confirm the correct wheel torque?
The required torque value is not provided in this guide. Confirm it in the 2009 Ford Fusion owner’s manual, OEM service information, or with a qualified technician. Retorque and recheck the installation according to the vehicle and wheel manufacturer’s instructions.
Wheel interchange depends on more than bolt pattern. Where data is available, this site compares recorded OEM values:
A normal wheel spacer does not change bolt pattern. Hub rings cannot enlarge a wheel bore that is smaller than the hub. Brake clearance and tire package fitment still require vehicle-specific checks when not confirmed in the dataset.
