Do my Honda vehicle’s tires need to be a certain size?

Why changing your Honda vehicle’s tire size is not a good idea

Do your Honda vehicle’s tires need to be a certain size? Actually, the answer is yes, they should be the given size of tires that your vehicle comes with. Many people choose to modify their vehicles by lifting the body, attaching larger tires, or other feature modifications. What those people probably don’t know is that most vehicle manufacturers, like Honda, do not recommend modifying their vehicle and even state reasons against doing so. The information below, on why changing your Honda vehicle’s tires is not a good idea, comes from Honda itself. 


Do vehicle modifications comply with Honda warranties? 

No, vehicle modifications are not compliant with Honda warranty standards. In order to receive the full benefits of your vehicle’s warranty, you should not modify your vehicle in any way. Depending on the components you change, the warranty for those components may be voided. Thus, since tires affect a good amount of your driving, there is a good chance that a warranty will be voided if you have improper tires. It is better to be safe than sorry in this case. 


Are vehicle modifications safe for Honda vehicles? 

Furthermore, vehicle modifications are sometimes not even safe, for yourself and other drivers on the road. Honda creates vehicles that are compliant with all of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards and every mandate of the Federal Government. You certainly want to keep your vehicle complying with those. 



How do I know what size tire my Honda vehicle should have? 

The correct size tire for your Honda vehicle is the one that it came with, whatever that may be. If you are asking, there is a good chance you bought your Honda second-hand and do not know what the original tires were. Our service team can help you find tires that properly fit your vehicle.
