The 2018 Subaru Outback uses five lug nuts with an M12 x 1.25 thread. The specified wheel fastener torque is 89 lb-ft (120 Nm), and the vehicle uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 56.1 mm center bore. These specifications apply across the listed Outback configurations, including the 2.5i and 3.6i entries.
Thread size is only one part of a complete wheel-hardware check. The supplied facts do not list the lug nut seat type or socket size, so those must be verified against the wheel before installing replacement hardware. A matching bolt pattern alone does not confirm compatibility, and a wheel center bore smaller than the hub cannot be installed.

Frequently asked questions
What lug nut thread does the 2018 Subaru Outback use?
The 2018 Subaru Outback uses lug nuts with an M12 x 1.25 thread. Matching the thread alone does not confirm complete wheel compatibility; the lug nut seat type must also match the wheel. Seat type and socket size are not listed in the supplied facts.
Does the 2018 Subaru Outback use lug nuts or lug bolts?
The specified wheel fastener is a lug nut, not a lug bolt. The vehicle has 5 lug positions and a 5x114.3 bolt pattern.
What is the lug nut torque for a 2018 Subaru Outback?
The specified wheel fastener torque is 89 lb-ft (120 Nm).
How many lug nuts does the 2018 Subaru Outback use?
The 2018 Subaru Outback has 5 lug positions and uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern. A matching bolt pattern by itself does not guarantee wheel compatibility; the center bore and other wheel specifications also matter.
What center bore should be checked when selecting wheels for this Outback?
The listed center bore is 56.1 mm. A wheel with a center bore smaller than the vehicle hub cannot be installed. The supplied facts do not list a hub diameter beyond the 56.1 mm center-bore specification.
Are the seat type and socket size listed for the 2018 Subaru Outback lug nuts?
The supplied facts list the M12 x 1.25 thread, lug nut fastener type, and 89 lb-ft (120 Nm) torque. They do not list the seat type or socket size, so those details require a separate fitment check before using replacement or aftermarket lug nuts.
Thread, torque and fastener type come from the OEM catalog. Seat type and socket size are not listed for this vehicle, so lug nuts that match the thread still need a seat-type check.
