The Short Version
- 5×114.3 with a 60 mm hub bore on every Harrier generation, from the 1997 original to the 2006 hybrid.
- Offset is +35 throughout. Only the wheel size changes.
- 16 inch on the first generation, 17 on the second, 18 on the upper trims. All at +35.
- So trims interchange within and across generations without spacers. This is an unusually simple car.
Sixteen Years, One Fitment
We opened grade pages from the first-generation ACU10W, the second-generation ACU30W and the MHU38W hybrid. All three return PCD 114.3, 5 holes, 60 mm bore, and all three run +35.
What changes is diameter and width, and it tracks the trim rather than the year: base grades on 16×6.5J or 17×6.5J, Premium L, AIRS and hybrid L Package grades on 18×7J.
Because the offset never moves, an 18-inch upper-grade wheel on a base Harrier sits in exactly the same place, just bigger. That makes upgrading trivially simple and makes used takeoffs from higher grades a direct swap. It is a genuinely easy car to shop for.

The Lexus RX Question
The Harrier is the Japanese-market version of the Lexus RX — same vehicle, different badge, and Lexus did not exist as a brand in Japan until 2005, which is why the JDM car wears a Toyota badge for its first eight years.
The Japanese databases carry only the Toyota-badged Harrier. So we can tell you the Harrier’s figures with confidence and we cannot independently confirm the export RX’s from a Japanese source.
Our expectation is that the bolt pattern and bore are identical, because the corner hardware is shared. Offset is the one to check — export-market bumper and arch geometry differed in places, and offset is exactly the sort of thing that gets adjusted for a market.
If you are fitting JDM Harrier wheels to an export RX, the studs will line up. Measure the arch clearance before you commit.
Sizing
+35 on a 7J is a moderate factory figure for a vehicle this size, which means the Harrier takes a bigger wheel without much drama. The usual move is 19×8J to 20×8.5J in the +30 to +40 range.
The 60 mm bore is the standard Toyota figure, so rings are easy and the wheel pool — shared with the Crown, the Estima, the Altezza and the Celsior — is enormous.
Importing
The first-generation Harrier launched in December 1997, so cars built through August 2001 are eligible for US import now, with the rest of the generation following to 2028. The second generation is 2028 and later.
North America had this car as the Lexus RX300 and RX330 throughout, so a JDM Harrier is a right-hand-drive and grade choice rather than a necessity.
What We Could Not Verify
- Hub bore on the second-generation hybrid upper trims specifically. We opened the base MHU38W grade.
- Export-market Lexus RX offsets and wheel sizes, which are outside the Japanese databases.
