The Chrysler Pacifica competes with the Toyota Sienna and Honda Odyssey as a premium family minivan. Pacifica owners need tires that combine long wear for high-mileage family use, confident wet grip for rain, and a smooth, quiet ride that keeps the van cabin comfortable on road trips.
Chrysler Pacifica tire sizes
2017-current Pacifica: 235/65R17 or 245/60R18 (Touring, Touring L), 245/60R18 or 245/50R20 (Limited), 245/50R20 (Pinnacle).
Pacifica Hybrid (PHEV): 235/65R17 or 235/60R18 depending on trim — smaller than the gas Pacifica's optional 20-inch wheels; low rolling resistance choice matters for EV range.
The 235/65R17 is the most common Pacifica fitment by far.
Best tires — standard Pacifica (235/65R17)

Frequently asked
How much do Chrysler Pacifica tires cost?
235/65R17: $115–170 per tire. 235/60R18: $130–185 per tire. A set of four installed (235/65R17): $460–680.
How do I know when my Pacifica needs new tires?
A minivan piles on highway miles fast, so check tread every few months with a quarter, and if the top of Washington's head shows, plan a replacement. Also watch the date code if you do not drive much, since a Pacifica that mostly hauls kids around town can age out of its tires before it wears them out. Any cracking or a sidewall bulge means replace now.
Should I replace all four tires at once on a Pacifica?
On a family van that gets loaded up and driven long distances, matched tires all around give the most predictable braking and handling. If two still have plenty of tread, you can replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer tires on the rear. When all four are close, doing them together is the simpler, safer call.
Does the Pacifica Hybrid need special tires?
Not special so much as efficient. The plug-in Hybrid benefits from a low-rolling-resistance tire to protect its electric range, so it is worth choosing a tire built for that rather than a heavy, aggressive tread. Match the size and load rating on your door-jamb sticker and lean toward a touring or low-rolling-resistance option.
