The Honda Accord Hybrid uses the same body and tire sizes as the standard Accord, but its two-motor hybrid system is designed for maximum fuel efficiency. Tire selection should support that goal without sacrificing the wet safety and handling the Accord is known for.
Common Honda Accord Hybrid tire sizes
11th gen Accord Hybrid (2023-current): 225/50R17 (EX-L hybrid), 235/40R19 (Sport, Sport-L, Touring hybrids). The gas-only LX and EX share the 225/50R17 size.

Best tires
Continental PureContact LS in 225/50R17 or 235/40R19: the top choice for Accord Hybrid owners. Class-leading low rolling resistance maximizes fuel economy, excellent wet grip.
Michelin CrossClimate2: for owners who want 3PMSF all-weather capability alongside hybrid efficiency. Rolling resistance slightly higher than the Continental but still class-competitive.
Bridgestone Ecopia HL 422 Plus: designed specifically for hybrid vehicles — very low rolling resistance at a competitive price point.

Frequently asked
How much do Honda Accord Hybrid tires cost?
225/50R17: $110–155 per tire. 235/40R19: $120–170 per tire. A set of four installed (235/40R19): $480–680.
Will the wrong tires hurt my Accord Hybrid's fuel economy?
They can. Swapping the factory low-rolling-resistance tires for a grippier, softer tire can drop real-world economy by one to three MPG. If maximum efficiency is the goal, choose a low-rolling-resistance touring or hybrid-specific tire; just don't sacrifice wet braking to chase the last fraction of an MPG.
How do I know when my Accord Hybrid needs new tires?
Check for tread worn toward the wear bars, cracks in the sidewall, age beyond six years, or wet stops that feel longer than they should. On a hybrid, a tired set also chips away at the fuel economy you paid for. A two-minute tread check at any shop will tell you where you stand.
Should I replace all four tires on my Accord Hybrid at once?
The Accord Hybrid is front-wheel drive, so you do not strictly have to do all four. You can replace in pairs if the other two still have healthy tread, with the newer tires on the rear. That said, doing all four at once keeps the grip even and saves you a second shop trip. If the whole set is worn or aged, replace them together.
