I am shopping for a winter tires + wheel set for my 350h. Any one knows the specs for 19" wheel? Will a set of 19" from 2015 RX fits?
Seems like there are not many choices for 235/60R19 winter tire. The only thing the local shop/dealer can order is Michelin X-Ice. It says it's suitable for EV. Does that mean the sidewall is much harder and if so how does that affect winter tires performance?
Thank you

But I have always had good luck with https://www.wheel-size.com/ to investigate wheel fitment.
Then, you should determine which tires are close to the same overall diameter and load rating with a site such as this:
http://www.powerdog.com/tiresize.cgi
Alternatively, you could just inquire on an online tire site, such as TireRack.com or DiscountTireDirect.com or SimpleTire.com
These sites also usually have areas where you can SEE how any wheel style they sell looks on your car.
One caution: I have found that many aftermarket wheels are more susceptible to corrosion from road salt, as the clear-coating on them isn't as substantial. YMMV!

China - like most offbrands. https://ovationtirescanada.ca/ I've had Sailun tires from China and they are not half bad.
