Hyundai Santa Fe Wheels and Rims

Hyundai Santa Fe Aftermarket Wheel Fitment

The Hyundai Santa Fe is one of the longest-running midsize crossover nameplates in the Hyundai lineup, in production since 2001 and currently on its 5th generation. Element Wheels measures fitment across five generations: 1st gen SM (2001-2006), 2nd gen CM (2007-2012), 3rd gen DM (2013-2018), 4th gen TM (2019-2023), and the current 5th gen MX5 (2024 and up). The 3rd gen DM era also included the Santa Fe Sport, a shorter 2-row variant sold alongside the standard 3-row Santa Fe; we track Sport fitment as its own line. The bolt pattern has stayed constant across the entire Santa Fe run. Every Santa Fe from 2001 forward runs 5x114.3 with a 67.1mm hub bore, the Hyundai-Kia midsize SUV standard. The Santa Fe also runs square (same width front and rear) in every factory configuration. Find your generation below for the fitment specs that apply to your specific Santa Fe.

Find Your Hyundai Santa Fe Generation

Pick your generation to see wheels and rims that fit your specific Santa Fe. The bolt pattern is 5x114.3 with a 67.1mm hub bore on every Santa Fe from launch through the current MX5. The fitment window changes by generation as the wheel diameter steps up from 16 inch (early SM) to 22 inch (TM and MX5 aftermarket ceiling).

The Hyundai Santa Fe Bolt Pattern

Every Hyundai Santa Fe from the 2001 launch through the current 5th gen MX5 (2024 and up) runs 5x114.3 with a 67.1mm hub bore. That is twenty-five years of unbroken bolt pattern on the Santa Fe. The 5x114.3 pattern is the Hyundai and Kia midsize SUV and crossover standard, used on the Tucson, Palisade, Kona, and most modern Hyundai sedans. The 67.1mm hub bore is also the Hyundai-Kia midsize hub spec, larger than the Toyota 60.1mm hub used on the Camry and the RAV4. 5x114.3 is one of the most common 5-lug patterns in the world, also written 5x4.5 in imperial because 114.3mm equals 4.5 inches. The 5x4.5 nickname refers ONLY to 5x114.3. A wheel listed for 5x115 (the Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger LX pattern) will NOT bolt onto a Santa Fe, even though the two numbers read less than a millimeter apart.

The Santa Fe is also the Hyundai platform sibling of the Kia Sorento on the modern Hyundai-Kia midsize SUV chassis. The two cars share the same 5x114.3 bolt pattern and 67.1mm hub bore by design, so wheels bolt across between the two in pattern and hub. Offset window and brake clearance still need to match the Santa Fe specifically, which is why we measure the two SUVs separately. Compare across the rest of the Hyundai lineup at our Hyundai wheels and rims hub.

Santa Fe vs Santa Fe Sport, and Why It Runs Square

From 2013 through 2018, Hyundai sold the Santa Fe in two body styles on the same 3rd gen DM platform. The standard Santa Fe was the longer 3-row family crossover. The Santa Fe Sport was the shorter 2-row version sold for buyers who wanted a Santa Fe footprint without the third row. Both versions share the same 5x114.3 bolt pattern and 67.1mm hub bore, but the brake package and offset window on the Sport differ slightly from the standard Santa Fe of the same model year. If your car says Santa Fe Sport on the trunk badge, use the Sport fitment page. If your car says Santa Fe, use the standard fitment page. From the 2019 4th gen TM forward, Hyundai split the lineup: the 3-row crossover became the Palisade and the Santa Fe nameplate carried forward as a 2-row crossover only. There is no Santa Fe Sport from 2019 forward; if you have a 2019 or later Santa Fe, the standard Santa Fe fitment page is the right one.

The Santa Fe also runs square (same width front and rear) in every factory configuration we have measured, and the aftermarket sticks to square as well. The Santa Fe is a family SUV where tire rotation between front and rear is part of the maintenance routine, and a square setup keeps that simple. The brake package is matched front to rear across every Santa Fe generation, so there is no front-larger-than-rear constraint on the aftermarket wheel face.

Every wheel we recommend is backed by our Fitment Guarantee. If a wheel does not fit, we pick up the wheels and refund 100 percent. No risk to you.

How We Confirm Fitment on Hyundai Santa Fe Wheels

Element Wheels measures fitment on the platforms we sell wheels for, including every Santa Fe generation from the 2001 SM through the current MX5. For the Santa Fe that means clearance from the wheel to the fender, gap between the back of the wheel and the suspension, brake caliper clearance, hub bore confirmation on the 67.1mm Hyundai-Kia hub, lug seat depth, and turning clearance with the wheel and tire installed. At our fitment facility in Chandler, Arizona, the Element Wheels team measures directly on the physical platforms we support. We don't pull specs from manufacturer sheets the way most retailers do.
