The Honda Accord is a benchmark mid-size sedan: responsive, efficient, and expected to deliver a composed driving experience in wet Georgia roads. The right tire either maintains the OEM character or improves on it.
Common Honda Accord tire sizes
10th gen Accord (2018-2022): 225/50R17 (LX, EX, EX-L, and Hybrid trims), 235/40R19 (Sport and Touring).
11th gen Accord (2023-current): primarily 225/50R17 and 235/40R19 depending on trim.
The 19-inch fitment on Sport 2.0T and Touring is a low-profile size, so ride quality vs. handling is the key consideration.
Best tires — Accord LX, EX, EX-L
Michelin CrossClimate2: the top recommendation for everyday Accord owners. Available in 225/50R17, with excellent wet performance, 3PMSF winter capability, and long tread life.
Continental PureContact LS: excellent wet grip and fuel economy, well-suited to the Accord's touring character. Available in 225/50R17.
Bridgestone Turanza QuietTrack: the quietest option. A quiet, well-performing step up for owners who prioritize cabin refinement.

Best tires — Accord Sport 2.0T and Touring
The Sport 2.0T uses 235/40R19, a low-profile sport tire fitment that requires tires balancing handling and ride quality.
Continental ExtremeContact DWS06+: the best all-season choice for Sport 2.0T owners. Excellent wet and dry performance, available in 235/40R19.
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4: the performance all-season benchmark. Better dry and wet grip than touring tires: a meaningful upgrade for owners who drive the Accord Sport aggressively.
Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate: good performance-to-value ratio for Sport trims, with noticeably better wet performance than budget tires at a reasonable price.
Accord Hybrid tire considerations
The Accord Hybrid is more sensitive to rolling resistance, so low-rolling-resistance tires help preserve the fuel economy advantage.
Continental PureContact LS is consistently rated well for fuel efficiency and wet grip: a strong fit for the Hybrid.
Avoid very aggressive tires on the Hybrid: the fuel economy penalty is real.

Frequently asked
How much do Honda Accord tires cost?
The common Accord size (225/50R17) runs $110–160 per tire. The 19-inch Sport and Touring size (235/40R19) runs $140–200 per tire. A full set of four installed: $440–640.
What OEM tires come on the Honda Accord?
OEM tire suppliers vary by trim, wheel size, and production run — Honda has fitted Michelin Primacy MXM4, Continental ProContact, and Bridgestone Turanza tires across different Accord trims over the years. Check your door-jamb sticker for the exact factory spec. The Michelin CrossClimate2 and Continental ExtremeContact DWS06+ are popular upgrades.
Can I put all-season tires on a Sport 2.0T Accord?
Yes. Max performance all-season tires like the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 and Continental ExtremeContact DWS06+ are designed for sport vehicles and deliver genuine all-weather capability. Pure summer tires are fine for most of the year in Georgia's climate.
How do I know when my Accord needs new tires?
The quick check is the penny test: stick a penny in the tread groove upside down, and if you can see the top of Lincoln's head, you're into replacement territory. Also watch for a longer stopping feel in the rain, a vibration that a balance won't fix, and cracking on the sidewall. On a daily-driven Accord, most owners hit the tread limit before age catches up.
Should I replace all four tires on my Accord at once?
On a front-wheel-drive Accord you don't have to. Replacing in pairs is fine as long as the newer pair goes on the rear for wet-weather stability. If a single tire failed from a puncture and the others still have plenty of tread, one close-matched tire can work. A local shop can measure the depths and tell you honestly whether one, two, or four makes sense.
