The Hybrid Lx and LX1.6T models come with 205/65R16 tires. The SX Limited and Sx models are equipped with 235/45R18 tires. The recommended tire pressure for all versions of the vehicle is 34 psi for both front and rear tires. The wheel sizes range from 16 to 18 inches in diameter and 6.5 to 7.5 inches in width. The wheel bolt pattern for the car is 5x114.3mm, with a thread size of M12 X1.5, a center bore of 67.1mm, and lug torque specifications of 107 to 127 Nm.
Make sure to inspect your tires regularly, especially during cold weather as they can lose air pressure. Add 5 psi of air to each tire in cold weather to prevent underinflation, which can save you money in the long term as underinflated tires lead to increased costs over time.
