===Centerbore===
The centerbore of a wheel is the size of the center hole in the wheel. This hole often is used to center the wheel on the hub or axle. This minimises the radial force variation from misalignment. If the wheels centerbore is less than the hub or axle centerbore, the wheel will not fit despite the bolt pattern being correct. If the wheel centerbore is larger, the wheel might not be aligned as well as it should be.

The centerbore of a wheel is the size of the center hole in the wheel. This hole often is used to center the wheel on the hub or axle. This takes some of the load from the lugs/lug nuts as well. If the wheels centerbore is less than the hub or axle centerbore, the wheel will not fit despite the bolt pattern being correct. If the wheel centerbore is larger, the wheel might not be as well supported as it should.
