It is very important to choose the right right size tires and wheels for the car, because this parameter affects safety, handling and suspension life. If the diameter of the cast rim is large, then you need to install special rubber with a low profile on it. The volume of air in it will be less than in a regular one, and the suspension will be very stiff. With a small casting diameter and a high rubber profile, the car will be very soft, but this will have a negative impact on handling. Therefore, you need to find the perfect balance between comfort and controllability. Let's look at these acceptable tire parameters for Toyota Camry V50, V40 and V 30.
Toyota Camry V50 rim size
The new generation of the Camry V50 business sedan has the same wheel size as the previous SV40.
Which one to choose depends on the driver's preferences. When choosing, you should understand what you need from a car: comfort or appearance. On the R16 the car will behave very softly, but in appearance it will become unremarkable. With the R18 things are different. And if you need an intermediate option, then the R17 is it.
The bad news for those who want to get an R18: cars with these wheels are only made in America, so getting them will be more difficult. In terms of availability, the best option is the R16, because it fits most Camry trim levels. R17 is only available on the most expensive versions.
Another criterion when choosing is the color: with dark varnish or transparent. With dark varnish, casting looks much more impressive, but it is poorly adapted to the climatic conditions in our country: the varnish can crack after just a couple of winters.
Toyota Camry V50 tire size
Depending on the cost of casting, rubber is selected. Below is a table with recommended wheel parameters for the Toyota Camry V50.
Toyota Camry V 40 rim size
The most common type of casting on the Toyota Camry V40 is with a diameter of 16 inches, which is available in most trim levels. More expensive trim levels come with 17-inch ones to enhance the car's appearance. However, if you do not have such rich equipment, then you can install the R17 without any problems. This is not the case in our country, but R18 is also supplied for American Camrys.
If the diameter of the central hole is slightly larger than the hub itself on the Camry 40, you will need to buy special additional rings for the wheel to help fit it. But if the diameter of the hole is smaller than the recommended one, then the disc simply will not fit on the hub: the bolts may fit into the holes, but they will not be able to be fully clamped.
If you are looking for a molding for a tire, then you should use the rule: its width should be 25-30% less than the width of the rubber profile.
Tire sizes for Toyota Camry V40
For a Toyota Camry, its tire size must be selected in a way that fits into the vehicle regulations. It is worth understanding that the tire size depends on the casting parameters. Most cars are equipped with 16-inch.
The most optimal tire size for Toyota Camry is 215/60 R16.
Externally, a car with 215/60 tires does not look very interesting due to the small diameter wheels, but this option is the most practical. If, after all, the owner wants his car to look more interesting, then instead of 60, you can choose 215/55 R17. These two sizes come as standard with the car, but many install 235/45 R18, but for this you need to buy wheels that fit the American versions of this car. This option will look interesting, but you will have to pay for it in comfort.
Toyota Camry V30 tire and wheel sizes
Unlike all subsequent generations of the Camry XV 30, 15-inch products were installed. For those who like to save money, they are perfect because they are the cheapest and take good care of the car’s suspension. The maximum size of the casting that can fit on the Camry V 30 is already 17 inches, which will affect the rigidity of the car.
Below is a table of acceptable wheel sizes for Toyota Camry XV 30
Non-standard disks
If you buy an original casting for a Camry V40, then you should not worry whether it will fit the car, because this is already provided for in advance by the manufacturer, but when buying castings for a V40 car from other manufacturers, you should pay attention to a number of factors:
- Bolt pattern on the hub: 5X114.3 - this means that the fixation is carried out by five bolts, and the bolts themselves form a circle measuring 114.3 mm.
- Maximum diameter: R20.
- The wheel offset should be between 35 and 45 mm.
Popular tires among Toyota Camry owners
- Bridgestone Turanza GR-80. These are not cheap tires, but they make the car very soft and quiet. Is the most the best option for Camry.
- Yokohama A539 is ideal option in terms of price/quality ratio.
- On Toyotas with large engine volumes, owners prefer to install Michelin Energy tires, which perform excellent during aggressive driving.
- Michelin X-ice and Yokohama IG20 are favorites among Camry owners among winter tires.
Conclusion
The sizes of tires and wheels for Toyota Camry need to be selected only those that comply with the regulations. The choice directly affects comfort and handling. The most optimal disc diameter is R16, and which one to choose specifically for your car is everyone’s business, because the regulations provide a choice of three sizes. Each of them can turn a car into either a soft, unremarkable sedan or a hard, eye-catching sedan. All generations of Camry, except V30, have the same wheel parameters, so they can fit from one model to another.

Winter is just the time when you should think about buying rims and tires for the warm season. My car came with standard Toyota R16 alloy wheels and Yokohama tires.
It was decided to use these disks in winter. Additionally, I bought Michelin X-Ice North 3 winter studded tires. As for the noise, it is present when driving, but not at all big. Any tire makes noise. Let me say briefly that the purchase was completely justified, although today it has risen in price by 20 percent from the price at which I bought it in October 2014. The crisis and inflation are doing their dirty work.

Toyota 16R standard wheels
Looking through various thematic forums, I discovered that some Camry owners install as many as 20-inch wheels. There is no doubt that such a car looks very extravagant, but I am one of the drivers who try to stick to the factory parameters. Design decisions are still based on specific tests and accurate calculations, and it is not surprising that the wear life of the suspension and Supplies for cars with disks of increased radius, it is significantly reduced. This is just my opinion, whoever likes it is not prohibited from betting, but it is not recommended either.
Below in the article I will give the factory parameters of wheels and tires. Perhaps it will be useful to someone. I was guided by the purchase of wheels and tires precisely according to these parameters.

There are also standard 18R wheels, but they are produced only for Toyota Camry for use in the United States, and a variant of R19 wheels for tuning. Their parameters are shown in the table below. Of course, there are also various options for wheels and tires, but again, this is all at the discretion of the driver. I have given only those provided by the manufacturer.
| Disk | Radius | Disc Width (inch) | Bolt pattern (number of holes and diameter in which they are located) | Departure (ET) | Center Hole Diameter (DIA) | Original disc number in the catalog | Tires |
| only for Camry USA | R18 | 7.5J | 5 x 114.3 | 45 | 60.1 | 42611-06740 | 225/45 R18 |
| tuning | R19 | 8J | 5 x 114.3 | 40 | 60.1 | absent | 235/40 R19 |
When choosing R17 wheels, preference was given to Silver color. There is no doubt that the presence of black varnish and polishing on alloy wheels gives it additional sophistication and charm, but I decided to refuse to purchase such wheels due to the fact that over time the black varnish and polishing lose their beautiful properties, and also begin to peel off and crack, especially in conditions our climate zone.
For my previous car, I bought just such wheels, with black varnish and polishing - but after the first winter season the wheels lost their presentation - the effects of reagents and salt from the road surface affected them. This option did not suit me. When choosing, I was guided by Replica Toyota wheels. I chose several options, photos of which I posted below. Friends, don't forget. that there are no comrades in taste and color - I chose it for myself, so don’t kick me too much :)
Legeartis Optima TY101 
Legeartis Optima TY136 
Legeartis Optima TY5110 
Legeartis Optima TY109 
Legeartis Optima TY121
In the end, I chose Legeartis Optima TY5110, which I managed to buy for 5,000 rubles each with delivery from the Mosavtoshina online store. The rims came with Toyota emblems for the cap in the center of the rim.

I didn’t change my taste regarding the brand of tires, and for the summer four Michelin Primacy 3 cylinders were purchased. It’s a thankless task to praise too much, those who know will understand - the tires are very decent and of high quality. The price of the issue - a rubber cylinder in February 2015 cost 7,800 “wooden”. We'll see what happens in a couple of months by the beginning of the summer season, but I'm sure prices will still creep up. Of course, if in the future the quality of these tires does not change, then I will constantly buy Michelin tires.
White Camry 40 on huge rims
Factory casting parameters:
Central hole diameter – DIA: 60.1 mm, fastening to the hub – nut, bolt pattern 5×114.3mm, M12 x 1.5 thread
- 16 – 6.5Jx16 ET45
- 17 – 7Jx17 ET45
- 18 – 7.5×18 ET45
Let us explain with help what these letters and numbers mean. The first number is indicated for better understanding. The first number after the dash (6.5, 7, 7.5) is the width, measured in inches; to convert to centimeters, multiply this number by 2.54.
J– informs the design properties of the wheel (disc flange type), is not important for buyers.
X– indicates that the disk is not separate.
16 – landing diameter, corresponds to the diameter of the tire.
ET45– wheel offset, in the presented case, is positive and equal to 45mm.
An important parameter is DIA(the diameter of the central hole in Camry 50 is 60.1 mm), which must correspond seat wheel hub, measured in millimeters. If the DIA is larger than the hub, then use centering seat rings made by disc manufacturers.

- 225/45 R18 91V
White XV50 with great rims
Let's tell you what these numbers mean. The first three-digit number before the slash is the width of the tire profile, measured in millimeters. The two-digit number after the slash is the ratio of the height of the rubber profile to the width, indicated as a percentage. If the profile width is 215 and the profile height is 60, then 215x0.65 = 129 mm the height of the tire profile. The Latin letter R (Radial) means that the tire is of radial type (the radial type of automobile rubber has replaced the archaic diagonal). The two-digit number after R provides information about the tire diameter (rim diameter) and is measured in inches.
The last two-digit number is the tire load index, i.e. what load the tire can withstand within the speed index at the correct pressure. For Toyota tires, the load index is 93 and 94, these numbers indicate that each can withstand 650 and 670 kg, respectively. The last Latin letter is the speed index, the speed limit within which the use of tires is permissible. In the case of Camry, the speed index is indicated by letters from S to V. S – 180 km/h, V – 240 km/h.
The tire pressure should be 2.2 - 2.4 bar.
The smallest tires that will fit are 205/65R16, the maximum tire size is 225/40R19.
When choosing tires for a car, ask the seller or look at the tires yourself for the date of manufacture. Buy rubber no older than three years; after this period, it may begin to crack and lose its properties.
This is the date of manufacture of the tires.
Wheel size V40
Offset (ET45) – the distance between the vertical axis of the wheel and the plane of the attachment point to the hub. The offset can be positive (most often), zero, or negative.
Large and small wheel diameters have pros and cons. This happens because the larger the rim, the thinner the rubber profile. Therefore, when choosing R18 rollers, a car enthusiast gets excellent appearance and handling, but loses in comfort and suspension life. By installing “sneakers” of small diameter on the Camry, it improves the smoothness of the ride and the running time of the chassis, and at the same time deteriorates the impressive appearance and handling.

The tire pressure should be 2.1-2.2 bar, measured in cold tires.
The smallest wheels, which are installed on 40 - 215/60 R16, the largest tire size - 225/40 R19.
When choosing wheels for a Toyota Camry, be guided by the tasks you would like to solve. If the main thing is the car’s appearance, performance and handling, then choose large R19 wheels. But be prepared that the smoothness of the ride will decrease, as will the service life of the suspension elements. If your goal is to drive comfortably, softly and protect the chassis, then R16 wheels are your choice.
Many car owners purchase large wheels and tires for the summer season, while winter tires remain small in diameter.
Camry V30 tire and wheel sizes
Unlike subsequent generations, R15 wheels were installed. They are perfect for car enthusiasts who love a soft, smooth ride and save money; such “rollers” are cheap and protect the suspension.

The minimum tire size that will suit the “thirty” is 205/65 R15, the largest is 215/55 R17.
Non-factory wheels for Camry
When purchasing original wheels for a car, there is no need to worry about whether the new “rollers” will fit the car. The manufacturer has taken into account all the dimensions and tolerances, all that remains is to buy and change the shoes of the car. If you are thinking about purchasing third-party disks, then carefully read and write down the following information.
Original design of Exclusive wheels
Bolt pattern – 5x114.3, i.e. The disk is fixed to the hub with five nuts, and the diameter of the circle passing through the centers of the disk mounting holes is 114.3 mm.
Top tires for Camry
Continental Conti Premium Contact 5 is a tire that has high acoustic comfort, excellent braking and road holding on dry and wet surfaces. Soft, so it wears out quickly.
Continental ContiPremiumContact 5 tires
Nokian Nordman SZ is a choice that adequately responds to low temperatures for summer tires without losing grip properties. They accelerate and brake the car well. The downside is the noise.
Yokohama BluEarth-A AE-50 is the solution if you prioritize price and reliability. Good grip on dry and wet asphalt, wear-resistant. Noisy, does not handle gravel roads well.
Michelin Energy XM2 – quiet, durable, wear-resistant. Excellent performance on asphalt in the rain. It rides poorly on wet gravel and grass.
When choosing winter tires, pay attention to the following models.
Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 are good non-studded tires that provide decent directional stability, cross-country ability in snowy areas, and good braking on ice. Weak deceleration on asphalt.
Goodyear Ultragrip Ice 2 is a non-studded tire. Pros: confident deceleration on ice, cross-country ability on loose snow. The downside is high noise.
