The short version
- The Solara wheel bearing chart hides handed rears: 512206 left, 512207 right, for 2004 to 2008.
- Fronts are press-in balls: 510006 for 1999 to 2003, 510063 for 2004 to 2008.
- The early rears split by ABS instead: 512310 with, 512311 without.
- Everything is Camry and Avalon family hardware under the coupe body.
Toyota’s Camry coupe borrowed its sedan’s wheel ends, including one of the site’s rarer traps: rear hubs that come in a left and a right, and will not swap sides.
The handed rears
The 2004 to 2008 rear Solara wheel bearing is handed: 512206 for the left side, 512207 for the right, agreed by three catalogs.
Name the side that hums before ordering; the boxes are not interchangeable.

Why handed hubs exist
Toyota built the second Solara’s rear hubs side-specific, as it did the Camry and Avalon of the era.
A left hub on the right corner is a wrong part even though it may physically hang there.
The Camry underneath
Every row above serves the sedan family too, covered on the Camry page, which keeps a discontinued coupe’s parts common. The make overview is on the Toyota page.
The pressed fronts
Both generations press their front bearings into the knuckle behind a separate hub, Toyota practice of the era, per the press-in page. The rears bolt on.
Diagnosing a Solara wheel bearing
- Name the side before any late rear order.
- Check for ABS on an early car’s rear.
- Weave at speed and place the hum.
- Rock each wheel at twelve and six.
- Plan press work for a front.
The routine is on the checking page and the tire noise page.
