The Chevy Blazer EV is General Motors' mid-size electric crossover on the Ultium platform, competing with the Ford Mustang Mach-E, Hyundai Ioniq 5, and Tesla Model Y. It launched for the 2024 model year with a range of trim levels from Work to RS, and curb weights of 4,400 to 4,900 pounds depending on battery pack and AWD configuration. Tire sizes vary significantly by trim level.
Chevy Blazer EV Tire Sizes by Trim
Chevy Blazer EV LT (FWD and AWD): 255/60R19 on 19-inch alloy wheels. A comfortable touring size appropriate for the LT's commuter-focused character.
Chevy Blazer EV 2LT and RS (AWD): 275/45R21 on 21-inch wheels. This sport fitment is used on the RS trim and RS Performance variant.
Chevy Blazer EV SS (performance trim): 275/40R22 on 22-inch wheels — the largest fitment in the lineup.
The Blazer EV's curb weight (4,400 to 4,900 lbs) requires tires with adequate load ratings. Verify the load index matches or exceeds the OEM specification on any replacement.

Frequently asked
What size tires does the Chevy Blazer EV use?
255/60R19 (LT trim), 275/45R21 (RS), 275/40R22 (SS). Verify with your door jamb sticker — Blazer EV sizes vary by trim and configuration.
Do Chevy Blazer EV tires need to be EV-rated?
Not strictly — correct size and load rating is the minimum requirement. EV-rated tires (Goodyear ElectricDrive, Michelin Pilot Sport EV, Bridgestone Turanza EV) are engineered for the Blazer EV's weight and instant torque, and better preserve range.
What are the best tires for the Chevy Blazer EV?
Michelin CrossClimate 2 for all-weather capability. Goodyear ElectricDrive GT for EV-specific performance. Continental CrossContact LX25 for range-efficient touring.
How do I know when my Blazer EV needs new tires?
Check tread with a quarter at 4/32 and a penny for the legal limit. On an EV you'll often hear it first, as road noise rises in the quiet cabin, and you may notice range dropping as the tread wears. Watch for uneven wear too, since the instant torque can be hard on tires.
Do Blazer EV tires wear out faster than a gas SUV's?
Often, yes. The combination of extra battery weight and instant electric torque puts more stress on the tread than a comparable gas SUV does. Regular rotation is the best defense, and it matters even more on an EV. Buying a tire whose compound is built for that load also helps it go the distance.
