What size tire goes on a 2011 Honda Accord?

Most 2011 Honda Accord sedans use 215/60R16 or 225/50R17 tires, while the Accord Coupe with the V6 typically uses 235/45R18. The exact size depends on body style (Sedan vs. Coupe) and trim level; the definitive answer for your car is on the tire placard inside the driver’s door jamb and in the owner’s manual.

Factory tire sizes by body style and trim

Sedan (2011 Accord)

The 2011 Accord Sedan came with different wheel diameters by trim, which dictates the factory tire size. Use the list below to match your trim to its OEM tire specification.

• LX, LX-P: 215/60R16 (16-inch wheels)
• SE, EX, EX-L (I4 and V6): 225/50R17 (17-inch wheels)

If your sedan has aftermarket wheels or a dealer-installed package, your current tire size could differ; always defer to the door-jamb placard for the correct size and pressure.

Coupe (2011 Accord)

The 2011 Accord Coupe offered larger wheels on upper trims, changing the tire size accordingly. Refer to the breakdown below to find the original equipment size.

• LX-S, EX, EX-L (I4): 225/50R17 (17-inch wheels)
• EX-L V6: 235/45R18 (18-inch wheels)

While these are the factory specs, confirm your current setup if wheels have been changed, as plus-sizing affects tire dimensions and recommended pressure.

How to confirm your tire size on your specific car

Because trims and wheel packages vary, the most reliable way to verify your Accord’s tire size is to check the vehicle itself. Follow these quick steps.

1. Open the driver’s door and read the Tire and Loading Information placard on the door jamb.
2. Match the listed tire size (e.g., 225/50R17) and the recommended cold inflation pressure.
3. Cross-check the current tire sidewall to ensure it matches the placard (or exceeds the load/speed ratings if different).
4. Consult the owner’s manual for confirmation and additional guidance.

This process ensures you use the correct size, load index, and speed rating for safe handling, braking, and wear.

Tire pressures, load index, and speed rating

Honda’s recommended pressures are shown on the door-jamb placard and may differ by size and load. For most 2011 Accords, pressures are typically around 30–32 psi (cold), but always use the exact placard value. Choose replacement tires that meet or exceed the OEM load index and speed rating (commonly V-rated with LI in the 93–95 range), especially if you carry passengers or highway commute frequently.

Wheel info and common upgrades

If you’re considering replacement wheels or tires, it helps to know the general wheel standards for this model and what upgrades are commonly used.

• Bolt pattern: 5×114.3 mm; hub-centric fitment recommended.
• Common OEM wheel sizes: 16×6.5, 17×7–7.5, and 18×8 (coupe V6).
• Popular upgrades: Moving from 16-inch (215/60R16) to 17-inch (225/50R17) on sedans for sharper handling; the coupe V6 already runs an 18-inch 235/45R18 performance-oriented setup.
• When upsizing, keep overall diameter close to stock to preserve speedometer accuracy and ride quality.

Correct fitment avoids rubbing, maintains proper suspension geometry, and preserves ABS/speedometer calibration.

Summary

A 2011 Honda Accord typically uses 215/60R16 or 225/50R17 tires on sedans and 225/50R17 or 235/45R18 on coupes (V6). Match your exact trim and wheel size to the factory spec via the door-jamb placard, and select tires that meet or exceed the original load and speed ratings, inflated to the recommended cold pressure for safe, efficient driving.

A Honda Accord that is not maintained well has a much higher chance of developing major engine and transmission problems before hitting 100,000 – 200,000 miles.
