Change wheels size??? 2018

Can I put 2018 Corolla LE tires
onto a 2018 Corolla SE??? I want to get rid of my low profile tires.

I would say yes. The se does not have any bigger brake calipers so there should be no clearance issues. Toyota is not going to develop different hubs and all the associated components on the corolla. The only thing I can think of is the speedometer calibration may be different between the two different tires sizes.

I say no. Stock wheels on 2018 LE is 16" while the SE is 17".

True, but with wider sidewalks and bigger diameter.

What exactly is your goal again? Are you swapping out wheels, tires, or both? A 16" LE tire will not fit a 17" SE wheel.

I know that last point lol.
I don’t like the SE low profile tires. Trying to nail down options.

Then you should be able to put in a 16" LE tire/wheel combo into an SE

this is what I was getting at. using the wheel and proper tires size in combo will fit. However if the diameter is not the same it will throw the speedo off as it will be calibrated for the larger wheel and tire size.
Sidewall Radius Diameter Circumference Revs/Mile Difference
205/55-16 4.4in 12.4in 24.9in 78.2in 811 0.0%
215/45-17 3.8in 12.3in 24.6in 77.3in 819 -1.0%
this is minor in comparison so should not be much of a difference

I agree.
