    Looking for a set of new wheels for my 2017 TRD Off Road and am interested in the Ballistic Morax off road. But when I look at the options for the bolt size is says "single bolt pattern" or "dual bolt pattern". Not sure what it means as I'm new to wanting wheels for a car lol. Any answers help thanks.

    I’m guessing it’s the faux bolts on the outer lip? But what do I know. :)

    I think perhaps a better fit for a sport vs an offroad. But again, just an outsider’s opinion.

    Then the single bolt pattern is for you.

    "single bolt pattern" or "dual bolt pattern" means absolutely nothing for the actual wheel bolt pattern. The actual pattern will have number of holes (for nuts) and diameter of the center of those holes. (Example 8 on 160). So find a better vendor that lists the actual pattern or go to manufacturer website. If manufacturer says same thing, then buy a different wheel out of principle of the manufacturer being a dumb ass.

    some wheels have multiple bolt pattern, but those are always shit wheels. So if they mean “dual bolt pattern” as they have a pattern to fit multiple vehicles, then they should list both sets of actual patterns, and IMO you should find something different.

    All the things!
    Fairly certain that's what it means.

    OP, I'd HIGLY recommend buying a wheel brand that has a reputable name. The center cap reminds me of Fuel wheels. Maybe check their models and find something similar.

    You also didn't ask, but those would be a hard pass for me, just based on looks.

    Stock AF. My 68 Bronco and 2000 2.5RS get the mods.
    single pattern means one "lugs x spacing", more means more.

    In the subaru realm you could have 5x100 and 5x113.5 (or something, its been a while) so your wheels will have 10 holes for wheel studs.
