The Short Version
- 5×114.3 on a 66 mm bore. Every Y33 and Y34 grade, without exception.
- The taxi and the Gran Turismo share a hub. Only the wheel size and offset change.
- Y33 sits at +40. Y34 upper grades sit at +35.
- No gaps in the data — every row is populated.
The Easy Answer
We read every Y33 and Y34 row on both the Cedric and the Gloria pages — the two are badge twins and the data is identical — and the result is the same every time: 114.3 mm, 5 holes, 66 mm bore.
That covers the 2.0, the 2.5, the 2.8 diesel, the 3.0 and the 3.0 turbo; the Brougham, the Gran Turismo, the Gran Turismo Ultima and the base taxi grades; and the Autech cars. No split, no changeover, no unresearched cells.
After a batch full of vehicles where the chassis plate lies to you, this is a relief.
Factory Specification
| Generation | Chassis | Grade tier | Wheel | Tyre | PCD / Holes / Bore |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Y33 | E-Y33, E-MY33, E-HY33, E-ENY33 | Brougham J, base and taxi | 6J–6.5J×15 +40 | 205/65R15 | 114.3 / 5 / 66 |
| Y33 | E-HY33, E-HBY33 | Gran Turismo, GT Ultima, 3.0 turbo | 7J×16 +40 | 215/55R16 | 114.3 / 5 / 66 |
| Y34 | TA-MY34, GH-ENY34 | 250L, 250AX, taxi | 6J×15 +40 | 205/65R15 | 114.3 / 5 / 66 |
| Y34 | TA-MY34, GH-ENY34 | 250LV, 300LV | 7J×16 +35 | 205/60R16 | 114.3 / 5 / 66 |
| Y34 | TA-HY34, GH-HY34 | 300LX, 300LX-Z S-package, Autech | 7.5J×17 +35 | 215/50R17 to 235/45R17 | 114.3 / 5 / 66 |
The Offset Steps Down as the Wheel Grows
The one pattern worth internalising. On the Y33 everything sits at +40 regardless of grade. On the Y34, the 15-inch base cars stay at +40 and everything from 16 inches up moves to +35.
Five millimetres is not dramatic, but it is the difference between a wheel sitting where the factory put it and sitting slightly proud. If you are fitting Y34 300LX wheels to a Y34 250L, expect them a touch further out than the car came — which is usually what people want.
Going the other way — base 15-inch wheels onto a 300LX — will look tucked and will also mean you have gone from a 17-inch to a 15-inch wheel, which is a bigger visual change than the offset.
Taxi Grades Are Not a Different Car
The Y33 and Y34 were sold in large numbers as taxis and company cars, and those grades appear in the database alongside the luxury ones. They are on the same 5×114.3 / 66 mm hub as the Gran Turismo.
That is worth knowing because ex-taxi cars are the cheap way into one, and because a set of alloys from a scrapped 300LX will bolt straight onto a 250L taxi with no adaptation at all.
If you want the full taxi story, the purpose-built Toyota Crown Comfort is a different vehicle entirely and we cover it separately.
Sizing
66 mm is the Nissan standard, shared with the Y31, the Cima, the Fuga and the whole rear-drive Nissan family. Wheels move freely.
Given the +35 to +40 starting point on a wide body, the usual ground is 18×8J to 18×9J in the +20 to +38 range. VIP-style builds go considerably further and accept the camber and arch work that comes with it.
Do not fit a wheel bored 67 mm for a Mitsubishi or Mazda hub. It will bolt up and it will not be located.
Importing
The Y33 launched in 1995 and is eligible for US import now. The Y34 arrived in 1999 and is eligible now through 2029.
Neither was sold in North America. The Gran Turismo Ultima and the 3.0 turbo are the grades worth the freight, and the Y34’s 300LX-Z S-package is the one with the 17-inch wheels from the factory.
What We Could Not Verify
- A grade explicitly labelled 2.5 turbo. The database labels only the 3.0 as a turbo grade; the 2.5 Gran Turismo grades carry no turbo tag. This does not affect the fitment — every grade returns the same figures — but we could not confirm the labelling.
- Wheel specifications for the Y33 wagon, which we did not open separately.
