This is a question for those who have the TRD 18" wheels. I've read that the recommended tire sizes are 215/40/18 Front and 225/40/18 rear. Is this correct? A bit confused on the difference in height.

It's a staggered fitment with the front wheels being 18X7 and the rear 18X7.5 with that said that's why Scion has two tire sizes posted.


I've been told you can install the "Rear" 18X7.5 and 225/40/18 tires on all for corners without any rubbing problems but I haven't tested this yet.

Love the look of the TRD wheels. What size are the tires? I ordered the wheels but not sure on the tire size. Trying to get consensus.

If you are running the TRD staggered fitment the front tires are 215/40/18 and the rear tires are 225/40/18.

You can. I ordered the 18x7.5 and 225/40/18 and there is NO RUBBING.

The dealer installed the staggered wheel and staggered tire setup for me at delivery. I went with the recommended tires listed above using the michelin pilot supersports. That along with the rear sway bar has provided many enjoyable long way home rides.

Thanks for the info. Shopping for the tires this week. Probably Pirelli or Sumitomos.
