I’m looking at getting aftermarket wheels for my Highlander (already). I was looking at one wheel. I’m planning to keep stock tires & just replace the wheels. So put the spec into the wheel calculator


& see how much it pokes out. It claims tires will poke out 10mm & lip of the wheels will poke out 16mm.


So did quick string & measuring tape to check & I got the clearance:
Tires: 5/8” = 14mm
Wheels: 1” = 25mm



So 20x8.5+20 wheel w same tires will still give me 4mm for tires & 9mm for wheels under the fender… great! Let’s check to see if available. Wait what? Wtf do you mean it won’t fit?!?!?!?!



Did I do the calculation wrong?
