The INFINITI QX60 is built around a single promise: a smooth, quiet ride that makes long drives feel effortless. The right tire amplifies that character significantly — a noisy or harsh tire undercuts everything the QX60 delivers. Here are the best picks for every QX60 generation and size.
QX60 tire sizes by generation and trim
The second-generation QX60 (2022 to present, L51 platform) uses 255/60R18 on the base Pure trim, and 255/50R20 on Luxe, Sensory, and Autograph trims. The first-generation QX60 (2013 to 2021, L50 platform) used 235/65R18 (with 235/55R20 optional) across most trims.
The 20-inch fitment on Luxe, Sensory, and Autograph L51 trims has a shorter, lower-profile sidewall than the base Pure's 18-inch tire and is more prone to pothole damage. Fitment is set by trim on the L51 generation, so there's no in-trim size choice.
Best all-season tires for the QX60
Bridgestone Turanza QuietTrack: the best quiet touring option for the QX60. Engineered to minimize cabin noise on luxury vehicles, with solid all-season capability. Available in 235/65R18 and 235/55R20. The top pick for QX60 owners who consider a quiet ride their highest priority.
Continental CrossContact LX25: Continental's premium touring SUV tire. Excellent wet braking, a smooth ride, and a 70,000-mile treadwear warranty. Available in all three QX60 sizes. A strong competitor to the Turanza for comfort-focused buyers.
Michelin CrossClimate2 SUV: the best choice for QX60 owners who encounter winter weather or want maximum all-weather flexibility. Holds the 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating. Slightly firmer ride than the touring options but meaningfully better in cold, wet, or light snow conditions.
Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season Plus II: competitive pricing and wide availability. A solid performer in wet and moderate weather. Good backup choice if the above options are out of stock or over budget.

Tires for the QX60 on 20-inch Luxe, Sensory, and Autograph wheels
The 255/50R20 size used on Luxe, Sensory, and Autograph trims is well-stocked with touring and comfort options. The Michelin CrossClimate2 SUV and Continental CrossContact LX25 are top picks for this fitment.
Pothole risk is elevated on 20-inch low-profile tires. Consider road hazard coverage when purchasing, and check tire pressure monthly — low-profile tires lose noticeable handling at even 5 PSI below spec.

Frequently asked
What tire size does the INFINITI QX60 use?
2013 to 2021 QX60 (L50 gen): 235/65R18 (235/55R20 optional). 2022 to present QX60 Pure (L51 gen): 255/60R18. 2022 to present QX60 Luxe, Sensory, and Autograph: 255/50R20. Verify on the driver door sticker.
How much do INFINITI QX60 tires cost?
235/65R18: $130 to $190 per tire. 255/60R18: $150 to $210 per tire. 255/50R20: $180 to $260 per tire. A set of four installed in the common 255/50R20 size runs $720 to $1,040 at a local West Georgia shop.
Can I put winter tires on my QX60?
Yes — if you encounter significant snow or ice, a dedicated winter tire set mounted on a second set of steel wheels is the safest option. The QX60 AWD system helps in snow, but winter tires provide dramatically more grip than all-season tires at temperatures below 45 degrees Fahrenheit.
How do I know when my QX60 needs new tires?
The penny test tells you about tread, and the cabin tells you the rest, since a quiet SUV like the QX60 gets noticeably louder as the tread wears. Longer wet stops, uneven wear, and any sidewall cracking are your cues. If you run the larger low-profile wheels, also keep an eye out for pothole damage.
