Yokohama Parada Spec-2 Tires 215/35Z R-18 18x7.5 with lug pattern 4x100 mm/12x1.25 lug nut/HPO/59.10mm bore Does anybody know if this pattern in a 18 inch wheel will fit the XB?

 

Yep, it looks correct to me. Very similar to what I'm running with the TRD wheels.

so the xB's bore is 59.1? might as well get some rings before i get the xB :D

 

too bad the parada's are crappy tires. all show no grip.


rebel what rings? for center bore? un needed.

 

i don't need hubcentric rings for my wheels? how come i need them for the echo then? my wheels bore is 65mm, the taper is 73mm, hub on the echo is 54.06

 

dude you dont need them on any car ever. as long as u tighten the lugs nice n tight. i've never used them on multiple rims on multiple cars over multiple years . never had a problem.

 

Nextwheel told me my lug centric lugs are fine and that I
didn't need the hub adapter.

I figured they were right since I autocrossed with these wheels
and have had no ill effects.

 

They are cheap enough that I would recommend them. The xB is also 54.06 (or 54.1), same as the Echo.

Like they say, a pic is worth 1K words... here's my wheel hanging WITHOUT the hubcentric rings installed. See how the center is offset, do you want you lugnuts to make it jump to the right place or would you rather have a ring hold it there to begin with and then tighten your lugs down? What if you take it somewhere and the guy isn't as careful as you? Do you want it in place or let him slam into into place with his air gun? That's just how I see it...

 

yea, they are definitely cheap enough to have, besides without them the steering wheel will give you parkinsons when doing 60mph+. maybe your WHEELS are lug-centric, my rota's aren't unfortunately
thanks for the pic^^
