The arrangement of lug nuts on a 2009 Toyota Camry’s wheel hub follows a specific configuration. This configuration, often represented numerically, indicates the number of studs and the diameter of the circle they form. For instance, a “5×114.3” specification denotes five studs positioned on a circle with a diameter of 114.3 millimeters. This measurement is essential for selecting compatible wheels.
This specification is crucial for ensuring proper wheel fitment and vehicle safety. Utilizing wheels with an incorrect specification can lead to vibration, damage to the wheel studs, and potentially, wheel separation from the vehicle. Historically, automotive manufacturers have adhered to standardized specifications, but variations can exist between different models and production years. Adherence to the manufacturer’s recommended specification ensures the safe and efficient operation of the vehicle.
