The configuration of lug nut placement on a 2010 Toyota Tundra’s wheel hub is a critical specification for wheel compatibility. This measurement defines the diameter of the circle formed by the lug holes and the number of lug nuts present. An example includes a 5×150 configuration, where 5 indicates five lug nuts and 150 represents a 150-millimeter diameter circle.
This specification ensures proper and safe wheel installation. Using wheels with an incorrect configuration can lead to wheel detachment, causing accidents and vehicle damage. Historically, vehicle manufacturers have employed various configurations, requiring precise matching when replacing or upgrading wheels to maintain safety and performance standards. Understanding it prevents the selection of incompatible components and maintains structural integrity.
