List of Car Wheel PCD and How to Check It, Let's Find Out!
Not everyone is satisfied with the factory design of their cars. Some people buy cars and then modify them to look custom and unique to them. Additionally, another reason people modify their cars is to better align with their identity as car owners.When you are going to modify your car, there are many things you need to pay attention to. A small example is when you want to modify your car's wheels, you need to know the width of the wheels, their diameter, offset, center bore, and PCD.
What is Car Wheel PCD?
When you hear the term PCD, it may sound familiar, but you might not fully understand what it means. PCD stands for Pitch Circle Diameter. This PCD indicates the diameter distance between the wheel and the bolts.
Each brand has different PCD sizes. Even within the same brand but different types, the PCD can also vary. Therefore, before you modify your car's wheels, you need to know what the correct PCD size is for your car.

List of Car Wheel PCD
Here is a list of Daihatsu car wheel PCDs based on the type or model of the car. You can easily find the PCD for your Daihatsu car here.
- Daihatsu Ayla = PCD 4x100
- Daihatsu Sigra = PCD 4x100
- Daihatsu Ceria = PCD 4x100
- Daihatsu Zebra Espass = PCD 4x100
- Daihatsu Xenia/ Xenia New = PCD 4x114.3
- Daihatsu Xenia Attivo = PCD 4x114.3
- Daihatsu Luxio = PCD 5x114.3
- Daihatsu Terios = PCD 5x114.3
- Daihatsu Taruna/ Taruna Oxxy = PCD 5x114.3
- Daihatsu Feroza = PCD 5x139.7
- Daihatsu Taft = PCD 5x139.7
What does the code 4x100 mean? The number 4 represents the number of bolts, while 100 is the distance in diameter between the opposing bolt holes. What if there are 5 bolts? It is almost the same as the 4-bolt configuration, just estimated from the center point of the holes.

How to See and Calculate PCD
Another way to know or calculate PCD without looking at the list of brands and types of cars is to use a ruler.
For example, if you want to guess the PCD code of a car. The first step is to count the number of wheel bolts first. If there are 4, then the PCD is 4x.
Next, measure the distance between the center of one bolt hole and the center of the opposing bolt hole. If you find that the measurement is 10 centimeters, convert this 10 centimeters to millimeters (mm), which becomes 100 mm.
Thus, the PCD code for that car is 4x100. Based on the data prepared earlier, it can be guessed that the car you measured is likely a Daihatsu Ayla, Ceria, Espass, or Sigra.
If you find that the measurement result is slightly more than 11 centimeters, then the closest PCD from the list is 114.3 mm. This PCD size is usually for the Daihatsu Xenia. Similarly, you can apply this for measurements close to 14 cm, which is 139.7 mm.
Isn't it easy to calculate the PCD of car wheels? You can try it on other types of Daihatsu cars.
That is the understanding of PCD, the complete list of Daihatsu car wheel PCDs, and how to calculate it. If you want to get more complete information about car wheel modifications, you can visit Daihatsu's official workshop. There you can also find many good wheel options for your beloved car.
