Tires Anyone know wheel bolt pattern?

[LS Tractor Owner]

I am looking for the wheel bolt pattern for the MT125 and the XJ2025 tractors. I know 5 bolt, but can't get a precise spacing... 110mm, 112mm? If anyone has the specific pattern, I would greatly appreciate it.

Looking to get wheel spacers and there are a lot that are very close in size

Well, at least I found that the 2025 is 6 lug.... Hopefully someone has measured the mt125. They don't list the numbers in the manual. Too new to be listed on the net, not that I can find anyway. I'm being lazy, don't want to go pull a wheel off to measure it

That's what I first thought, but briefly just holding a tape measure across the bolts from center to center, they are only 4 1/4" across. Maybe 4 5/16". Converting to mm: 110mm / 112mm. There are spacers that are 108, 110, and 112mm. Very very close tolerances. I have trailer rims that are 5x4.5, and they don't fit. Had tried last summer when I had a tire off, but never actually measured the pattern.

Center hole may be smaller for a trailer rim. My wheel horse rims fit and look 100% the same when I eggedout the holes from not having the lug bolts tight enough. I went to the taper lug studs on all 4 after replacing the rim.

Could be, I'll have to go out and try again tommorow. I actually took my old wheelhouse 14 auto over to the neighbor to give to someone else. I might have to go retrieve it... Been sitting out in the field for about a year now.

What tapered studs did you get to use on the 125? Size /thread, and where did you get them?

7/16 x 20. Standard wheel horse lug studs. Some think its s metric thread, but my Ls dealer looked it up for me and confirmed from LS that it is a 7/16 x 20 thread.
When I tried to chase the threads with the metric tap that is very close. It went in a good hole very hard. 7/16 x 20 was perfect. The original bolts have metric markings on them, but the tread is confirmed 7/16 x 20 from a master machinist friend of mine. Some say that they do not mak3 American bolts with metric markings on them, sorry to tell them that they are wrong, they do make bolts that way and they all come from china. I have seen it many times from harbor freight items. Ls bolts are supplied from china according to my dealer.

Where did you purchase them? I'm not sure if I can get studs from O'reilly's or Auto Zone, they are the only places close to me

Here is a link for measuring bolt patterns. On 5 bolt patterns the measurement is not center to center.

Thanks. Did not know 5 lug were measured that way. Would explain why center to center was only 4.25". I'm going to pull a wheel today and check that way.

Weird. Our XJs are 12 and 16 mm

Tom, how are you liking your wheel spacers? I'm going to order some soon...

 

[tomplum]

I feel better for having them. It looks better too. It is more security for the misses as she is the one that across the side lawn with the ~ 15 degree slope. Scares me, not her. So before you order, take into account the extra hardware. I backed the 2 wheel studs outward on each axle and locked them. Then screwed longer bolts in 50 mm? from the back and put proper tapered lug nuts on. Range Rover, Ebay on the nuts for cheap. You wouldn't need to do it that way I'm sure.

Well, actually won't be 5x4.5. Bought some spacers that pattern and they will not fit. Studs are maybe 1/8" off, larger spacing. Tried them on the jeep and trailer wheels I have and the spacers fit them. I'll just give them to my son for his jeep. Still trying to find the right ones

Here's a thread resurrection. I read all this and got 5x4.5 that is 5x114.3 and those DO NOT fit. I can't find any info and I'm thinking of trying 5x112 next.

Also, could someone recommend a cheap spacers brand / model to buy online?
