How to verify the exact wheel size on your Corolla
To confirm the precise wheel size for your specific vehicle, follow these steps.
- Check the door jamb placard on the driver's side. It lists the recommended tire size and wheel diameter for your trim and market.
- Inspect the tire sidewall. The size code (for example, 195/65R15) includes the wheel diameter in inches—the number after the “R” indicates the wheel diameter (15, 16, or 17, etc.).
- Consult the owner's manual or Toyota’s official specifications for your region and trim.
- If in doubt, contact a Toyota dealer or use your VIN to pull the exact spec from official sources.
Always rely on the door placard and VIN-specific documentation for the exact wheel size, as factory options and regional differences can apply.
