The Hyundai Tucson is a refined compact crossover with a focus on value and comfort. Most owners want a quiet all-season with good wet grip and long tread life. Here are the best options.
Common Hyundai Tucson tire sizes
4th gen Tucson (2022-current): 235/65R17 (SE), 235/55R19 (SEL, N Line, XRT, Limited).
3rd gen Tucson (2016-2021): 225/60R17 (Value, SE), 225/55R18 (SEL, Limited, Ultimate); the Sport trim used 245/45R19. Sizing varies some by model year and package — verify on your door jamb sticker.
Nearly all 4th gen trims above the base SE share the 235/55R19 fitment, making it the most common Tucson replacement size.

Frequently asked
How much do Hyundai Tucson tires cost?
Common sizes (235/65R17, 235/55R19): $110–160 per tire. A set of four installed: $440–640.
What OEM tires come on the Hyundai Tucson?
OEM fitments vary by trim and production run — Hyundai sources from several tire brands, so check your sidewall for what your Tucson shipped with. The Michelin CrossClimate2 and Continental CrossContact LX25 are popular replacement upgrades.
How do I know when my Tucson needs new tires?
Check the tread depth and watch for wet-weather grip fading, uneven wear along an edge, or new noise and vibration. The quarter test takes ten seconds and tells you if you're getting close. Don't forget age, since a set more than several years old can be due even if the tread looks okay.
Is all-wheel drive on the Tucson picky about matching tires?
It's more forgiving than some systems, but Hyundai still recommends replacing at least in axle pairs and keeping tread depths close across all four. Large mismatches make the AWD work harder than it should. When in doubt, have a shop measure before you buy just one or two.
How much should I budget for a set of Tucson tires?
Plan around the cost of four quality all-seasons plus mounting and balancing, which lands higher on the larger-wheel trims than on the smaller base wheels. It's worth pricing a couple of tiers, since a longer-wearing tire often costs less per mile even if the sticker is higher. A local shop can quote your exact size.
