Wheels/rims on the EX

[Ojai00]

Hello all. Building our first KIA. We’re stuck with the EX model because the wife wants the 2nd row bench. Can anyone comment on the wheel size for the GWP? Dealer showed me a picture and it looks like it’s 20” similar to the S model. All of the window stickers I’ve come across say 18” and look like the LX wheels that we’ve seen at the dealers

The website shows a different wheel when selecting GWP but I’ve read another post that says the website shouldn’t be trusted

Hoping someone can post pictures of their EX without any upgrades that show what the wheels look like or can chime in to explain? Thank you!

The standard EX has its own distinct wheels that are 18”. The 20” S-style wheels are what come with the Premium package (and captain’s chairs).

Here is an example of what the 18” wheels look like:

Here's our EX when it was stock and a close up of the wheel.We had the same issue with wanting the bench in the second row.

Thank you! Did you replace them with something else? Wondering why the rim is off

You're welcome... We did. Went with a set of aftermarket 22s.

If you go with EX-P, which has the captains seat then you will get 20inch wheels like the S trim. I have a 2021 EX-P. Sorry I can share any pictures right now.

Thanks. Unfortunately the bench is a requirement so can’t add any upgrades!
