Picked u a new 2026 Plug in SE december 31st. Drove 2025 WRX TR ( RS) previously and traded it in, as work commute distance has changed massively. This has to be the best decision i have made in a long while. Really loving ho smooth and comfortable this car is. Looking for advice on wheel options for a set of summer tires. current 17" oem wheels have winter tires on them.
I wound up finding some oem 17" wheels w/hubcaps for my winter tires. Hard to find though, for me. edit: So, the car came with winter tires? Interesting.
More likely OP had them installed. my first thought would be to put the stock tires (likely all-season, not summer) back on the the stock rims, and next fall relegate the snow tires to a set of steel rims. Was there a compatible Camry or RAV4 steel rim? my 2 cents: the stock 17” rims and plastic covers are pretty ghetto though.
I suppose. People want to trade their 19" wheels for 17's. I'd stick with 17's. How long do you keep snow tires on in Ontario? I'd say 5 months. Who wants to drive around on crappy looking rims all that time. Sometimes there's no snow, you wash the car, and you've got the crap looking rims. Ugh. Or, he could buy some 16" wheels and be like you! And, I love those hubcaps! I haven't had one fly off yet! And hold in the BS about wheel covers vs hub caps.
