The Short Version
- The S150 sedan is 5×114.3 with a 60 mm bore at +50 — the same as the S170 Crown and the Majesta.
- The wagon is not an S150 at all. Toyota never built one, and kept the older S130 wagon body in production alongside.
- That wagon runs +23 against the sedan’s +50. Twenty-seven millimetres apart on the same 15×6 wheel.
- There is no S150 Athlete V turbo. The Athlete V belongs to the S170.
The Wagon Is a Different Car
This is the trap, and it is a big one because both are called Crown and both were on sale at the same time.
Toyota never tooled a wagon version of the S150 shell. Instead it kept the previous-generation S130 wagon body — chassis code JZS130G — in production and sold it alongside the new S150 sedan until 1999.
So a “1997 Crown wagon” is a 1980s-derived body with 1980s-derived geometry. Its factory offset is +23 on a 15×6J. The S150 sedan’s is +50 on 15×6.5J.
That is 27 millimetres. Fit sedan wheels to the wagon and they tuck by more than an inch. Fit wagon wheels to the sedan and they poke by the same. Both bolt on; neither is right.

There Is No S150 Athlete V
Worth correcting because it sends people looking for a car that does not exist in this generation.
The factory database’s dedicated Crown Athlete catalogue — which lists every Athlete grade by year — starts in September 1999 with the GH-JZS171 Athlete V 2.5 turbo. That is the S170.
There is no S150-era Athlete entry anywhere in that list. If you are looking for a turbocharged Crown Athlete, you want the S170, which we cover in a separate guide.
Consistency With the Rest of the Crown Family
The good news is that the sedan’s 5×114.3 on 60 mm matches everything else in the Toyota luxury range of the era: the S170 Crown Athlete, the Majesta, the Celsior and the Progres.
So the Crown line is a stable 5×114.3 / 60 mm family from the S150 through the S170, and wheels cross between them freely on pattern and bore. Offset is what you check.
Sizing
+50 on a 6.5J is deep, and the S150 is a VIP-scene favourite overseas precisely because there is so much room to move. The usual territory is 18×8.5J to 19×9.5J in the +15 to +35 range, often with camber.
The 60 mm bore makes hub rings trivial, and the wheel pool shared with the whole Crown, Celsior and Soarer family is one of the deepest in Japan.
Importing
The S150 ran from 1995 to 1999. The whole generation is past the US 25-year mark, as is the S130 wagon sold alongside it.
The Crown has never been sold new in North America in the modern era, which is why the S150 in particular — cheap, plentiful and rear-drive — has become a common import for VIP builds.
What We Could Not Verify
- Hub bore for the JZS130G wagon. Explicitly marked “under investigation”.
- The GS151 Super Saloon and Super Select five-number variants, whose titles we saw but whose pages we did not open.
