The configuration of lug holes on a wheel, specifying their number and the diameter of the circle they form, is a critical measurement for wheel fitment. For a 2011 Toyota Camry, this measurement is 5×114.3mm (or 5×4.5 inches). The ‘5’ indicates the presence of five lug nuts or bolts, while ‘114.3mm’ or ‘4.5 inches’ represents the diameter of the circle on which the centers of these lug holes are situated.
Correct wheel fitment is paramount for vehicle safety and performance. Using wheels with an incompatible configuration can lead to wheel detachment, damaged wheel studs, and compromised handling. The specified configuration for this particular year and model Camry has remained consistent across several model years, establishing a degree of interchangeability for replacement or aftermarket wheel options. Understanding this specification is essential for both maintenance and customization purposes.
