17×8 Wheels on a 2018 Toyota RAV4

Evidence summary

• Documented builds: 9
• Observed range in our build database: ET35 to ET43
• Most frequently documented tire: 245/65R17 (5 builds)
• Axle context: In our build database: 8 documented as square (same size all around); 1 as part of a staggered setup; 9 front-only for this size. Rear-only or front-only counts are not treated as square.

Compared with OEM

OEM baseline used for geometry: 17×6.5 ET45

Width vs OEM: +1.5 in

Outer edge 29 mm farther toward fender (more outward poke)

Inner edge 9 mm closer to suspension (less inner clearance)

Geometry uses the most frequently documented offset when available. It does not mean the wheel “fits” or “will clear.”

Documented offsets

• ET35 — 3 builds
• ET38 — 3 builds
• ET40 — 1 build (evidence only — no dedicated page)
• ET43 — 1 build (evidence only — no dedicated page)
• Unknown — 1 build

Evidence pages for documented offsets

• ET353 builds
• ET383 builds

Counts include only builds where offset is actually recorded. Missing offsets are not treated as ET0. Linked offsets meet the size+offset evidence threshold.

Tire sizes used with 17×8

• 245/65R17 — 5 builds
• 225/65R17 — 3 builds
