I need 1 x TRD 19" TRD rim.

Want one as a spare instead of the yellow spare i currently have in the boot.

Will be driving a long distance shortly and would like the same wheel spare as what is on the car.

Please let me know if you come accross one or a set!

You do realise that is is not going to fit properly in the spare wheel well. The board that sits on top of the spare wheel will sit 1 inch higher making a bulge in the middle of the boot carpet. Just get a stock Sportivo wheel or something. The car is fine on a standard wheel as a spare so you should be fine while you go on your trip.

Yeah figured it would sit a bit higher.......

Was going to modify the board to sit higher all round.

Whats the go with the spare, says 80km/h max, but its a full size camry sportivo wheel just painted yellow....or is the tyre the issue!

I can't comment. The tire is completely rated to more than what you need in terms of speed rating and the load rating is the same, so there are no worries there. Maybe Toyota in all their wisdom thought that a standard sized Sportivo wheel on one wheel only should be treated like a space saver in terms of limitations. Personally, if you make sure you fit it to the rear, you will be fine for highway speeds. The spare is 2.175% smaller in diameter, but it doesn't affect the handling to the point that you will notice it. It would make a difference if you had to do a defensive driving manoeuvre, but I don't think it is going to make you lose control.

Nice to know....

Ah hell, if there is a rim out there cheap, i'll grab it, but if not....i have nothing to worry about.

Thanks Daryl for the info.
