My questions are:

1. Is the 2020 Adventure trim 19"rims fit on my 2022 XLE premium?
2. Do I need to change the wheels lug nuts?
3. Are there any modifications for this 2020 Adventure trim 19" rim that i need to modify?

I assume both are aluminum wheels (no steel wheels) and the tires are the same size.
1. Yes
2. No
3. No.

 

Thank you!

 

There's a ton of 19" rims that are same sizing as OEM. Choose what works best for you.

 

I just want the all black or dark color alloy rims. Thank you sir!

 

Also from Canada. I do not recommend 19” for winter wheels/tires.

We have XLE that came with 17” so we stayed with 17” with 5-spoke Toyota steel wheels also in 17”

Our two Limiteds in 19” are downsized to a minus 2” which is 17” for winter use. Higher sidewall is better

Use www.wheel-size.com and tiresize.com for proper calculations whenever upsizing or downsizing from original OEM wheel size.

The closest size for OEM 19“ in 235/55/19 in 17” is 235/65/17. Keeps your speedometer very accurate and your ABS and other computer aided functions working as it should. I have Toyota Observe GSi-LS in 235/65/17 for winters on those two Rav4s.

A thinner tire has more PSI to the ground, which helps "cut" snow water ice. We cannot snow-shoe the vehicle, environment just not setup for that, so more PSI to the ground is preferable for stability/traction.

 

Bigger contact patch is less PSI to the ground. I was not meaning "PSI" in terms of tire air pressure.

When there's more PSI in that contact patch then the tire has better "grip" and cutting ability in wet snow ice.

When it's hot summer on good dry clean pavement, a bit less PSI in a bigger contact patch (wider tire) is ok.

Just as example, I probably would prefer a P205 on a 7 rim for winter, vs a P235 on 7.5.

 

Yes a thinner tire for deep snow is better but for me I’m in areas that are usually plowed. And there are not any 205 width I could find in 17” that are an acceptable size to keep overall circumference within spec, (preferably within 2%, with negative preferable over positive difference of OEM 19” tire circumference.

I personally try to keep my aftermarket size less than 1% of OEM.

I see what you mean about higher psi in more narrow tire. Bicycles for example are around 70 psi for road hybrids mountain bike and bicycle road/ racing tires around 110 psi

Front winter in 17” at 32 psi

Rear at 29 psi

Below is last winter on our other red Rav4 set to, I believe was 34 psi before learning more about proper psi when using a tire size different from OEM and higher load rated tire and the winter road conditions usually experienced for any given person.

That's not what I mean.

Two contact patches on same vehicle, lets say 20sq.in. and some other tire that is 2x bigger patch at 40sq.in.

Let's say the vehicle weighs 3,000lb with 2,000lb on front wheels and the rear wheels carry the other 1,000lb.
Fronts carry 1,000lb each, rears carry 500lb each.

Contact Patch force to ground
1,000lb/20sq.in = 50PSI
1,000lb/40sq.in = 25PSI

For wet / snow / sandy roads, I would prefer 50PSI to the ground (thinner tire). For hot summer days on good clean pavement I prefer the 25PSI to the ground (wider tire).

 

Sorry for Temu attachment that was posted by me 4 days ago. I don’t know how that happened. I’m a Boomer!

Now I deleted attachment as I cannot find how to delete post all together so now replaced attachment with this explanation 🙄

 

If you get separate set of rims for the winter tire, you might need different lug nut depending on the design of the rim.

 

True. If aftermarket alloys have a flat lug nut mounting surface or conical which if memory is correct, Toyota is 60 degree conical, then your original OEM lugs will work as they have both mating surfaces on. lug nut.

For steelies, the 60 degree conical is usually standard.

 

I thought that the 19 inch RAV rim that has a stock 235 tire width- offers more contact to the snow because of its width compare to the 17 inch stock who has a 225 width. It's like riding a road bike with a skinny tire in a snow compare to riding a mountain bike.

 

Bigger patch means less tire PSI between patch and snow. You start to snow-shoe when the area of patch gets bigger.

 

having more tire sidewall allows the tire to absorb small rocks and bumps and transmit less shock to the suspension. also thete are more all terrain tire options at that size.

lower profile tires like on the 19's are stiffer on the road you can feel when handling

 

Road racing a tall 16" tire will surely roll the tire off the rim. Less so with the 1" sidewall tires.
Certainly more sidewall equates to softer ride. I don't really like the 19" 235-55-19 tires on Rav, on my next set of tires I will likely buy a full set of 18" wheels (rims with tires) to get some extra sidewall. The Rav has rather large space between tire and wheel-well with the 235-55-19, it can use a 235-60-19.

 

in my opinion the 18's look just right on my Hybrid. The 19's are too tall the overall diameter is larger and starts to look gaudy imo. 17's look good with all terrain tires and 18's for street tires.
to make 19's look good you need to lower the wheel gap and tire profile to go for that look

 

There's enough room that you could run a 235/60R19 if you wanted to. To each their own.
I like my Prime on 20"'s and that has a lot to do, with the fact that the design is very "urban" to me. The RAV4 looks very home and contemporary in city on-road conditions, compared to the older models. I don't find the current design to be particularly rugged or aggressive in an off-road kind of way.
