## Methodology
- Calculators use standard tire-geometry math: overall diameter = rim + 2x sidewall; circumference = diameter x pi; revolutions per mile = 63360 / circumference.
- Size changes beyond the industry +/-3% overall-diameter window are flagged.
- Recommendations rank real tire models by fitment risk and never guarantee a physical fit; confirm against the door placard and sidewall.
- Fitment dataset last reviewed 2026-06-24.
- Taco Tires is an independent resource and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Toyota.
