Toyota and Lexus 17" / 18" wheels that fit the Highlander

What other model Toyota and Lexus wheels are a direct fit for the Highlander? I know the bolt pattern on most (all?) 5 lug Toyota/Lexus wheels is the same but I don't know about width, offset or load rating. From what I've read Rav4 wheels will work, how about RX330/RX350? Avalon or Camry?

Fit:
Rav-4

Do not fit:
Current (2011) Lexus LS
2nd Gen Sienna (+45 offset would sit too far inside the fender)

Thanks. Any other wheels out there that are known to fit or not fit the 08+ Highlander?

I'm thinking of buying a set of 18" 5-spoke rims from a Lexus RX330/RX350 to use as a winter set. All the research I've done so far indicate that these rims will fit. The OEM highlander rim is 19 x 7.5 or 17 x 7.5 with a 5 x 4.5 inch bolt spacing, 60mm bore and 35mm offset. The Lexus RX is 18 x 7, with 5 x 4.5 inch bolt spacing, 60mm bore, and 35 mm offset. If I go this route, I will be using 245-60-18 tires. Has anyone used the 18" Lexus RX wheels on the Highlander?

I believe these will fit. The downsides are a skinnier wheel and having to buy 18" snow tires. Personally I'd prefer 17s.

2007 Highlander Limited wheels 17x6.5 fit perfectly and allow a narrower tire to be placed which will cut through the snow.

I know someone in Maryland selling a set of four btw

I am using 2010 rx 350 19inch wheels for winter. They are a perfect fit.
I got a new set of take-off's for $680, I could not say no. I am using blizzak DMV-1 for tires using the stock size. I even got a deal on the tires, a firestone dealer in buffalo sold me them for $199 each.

I'd love to see a pic with these wheels on, if you have one. Also, did you use the stock lugs, or did you have to use different lugs?

Stock lugs work perfect. Rx 350 is just a Highlander with a thong. I wont have the wheels on for another week or so. When I do I will post a pic.

Awesome. Now you have me thinking about the Lexus 19" rims as a possibility

Flee bay is good place to find tire shops selling wheels.
Look for ad's with phone numbers so you can contact the seller.
Its amazing how cheap take off Lexus wheels are. I paid less for 4 than one costs in canada. My Rx wheels are stamped toyota on the back, I am sure they are made by the same supplier.

That looks really good! I assume that you used your original stock lugs and center caps with no problems? Also, are they a perfect fit without spacers, etc?
