- Door jamb placard: The wheel size information is printed on the tire and loading placard located on the driver's side door or jamb.
- Owner’s manual or original window sticker: The trim level and package contents typically list the wheel size.
- VIN-based build sheet or dealership records: A service advisor can pull the exact wheel size from the vehicle’s configuration if needed.
- Tire sidewall as a cross-check: If you know the tire size currently mounted, the diameter designation (for example, the final number in 215/45R17) usually corresponds to the wheel diameter in inches.
Note: Exact wheel width and offset can vary by market and production year, so the placard and official documentation are the most reliable sources for your specific car.
