Does a 73.1mm to 66.6mm bore adapter require a bolt pattern spec??

Hey all,
i've got some wheels picked out, and they are 73.1mm bore so require a 73.1mm to 66.6mm bore adapter (standard w123 size, i have gathered).

https://www.amazon.com/Hubcentric-Rings-Pack-Aluminum-Centerbore/dp/B00DIK3R40#customerReviews

I thought i had it all figured out, but looking at that specific item I am now confused about one thing...

There is a spec in the info that says the "Bolt Pattern (Pitch Circle Diameter)... 114.3mm"

Before seeing this, i was under the impression that the bolts had no relation to the bore. The rings appear to just rest in the bore. Why would the bolt spacing be related? Is this a mistake in the listing?

Or do i need to find a hubcentric bore adapter ring that is 73.1 to 66.6 but also the standard 112mm bolt distance of w123?
