Just my .02. I learned with my 3rd gen how important a hub-centric balance was compared to a lug-centric balance. Tire shops need a hub-centric adapter to balance Toyota wheels. Of course a Toyota Dealer should know this.
I'm a 5th gen now. Haven't balanced my tires yet so I can say from experience if the hub-centric adapter is required on the 5th gen, I strongly assume it is. FWIW, I have the bridgestone duelers. They ride smooth, no steering wheel shake at all. I don't love the tire but it is smooth with no steering wheel shimmy/shake.
Make sure you're balancing is set up for hub-centric. If your balancer doesn't know what you are talking about find a place that does. The adapter is expensive but required to balance all hub-centric wheels properly.
