Toyota RAV4 wheel fitment — I XA10
Toyota RAV4 wheel fitment
Toyota RAV4 wheel fitment comes down to two things: the factory hub spec, and how far the aftermarket width and offset can move from it. Both are here for the Toyota RAV4 (I) XA10 (1994–2000).
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x114.3 |
| Centre bore | 60.1 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M12x1.5 (nuts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 105 Nm |
| Seat type | flat |
| Factory setup | square |
| Tyre pressure | 32Psi |
| Brakes | e6*98/14*0070*..,e6*2001/116*0070*..- mit Radhaus- Verbreiterungen |
| TPMS | none |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 7J–9J | ET8–ET45 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8 to 10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
Overview
The first generation Toyota RAV4 (XA10 series) was introduced in Japan and Europe in May 1994 and launched in North America in January 1996. It was designed to cater to consumers seeking a vehicle that combined the benefits of SUVs, such as increased cargo space and higher visibility, with the maneuverability of mid-size cars. The RAV4 is credited with popularizing compact crossover vehicles. Available in both three-door (hardtop) and five-door configurations, it offered petrol engines ranging from 2.0L to 2.4L capacities, along with a unique electric variant produced between 1997-2003.
