2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited Spare Tire
The Chevrolet Malibu Limited typically comes equipped with a compact spare tire, often referred to as a "donut", which is intended for temporary, emergency use to get you to a safe location or nearest auto shop for a tire replacement. Unlike regular tires which are specifically designed to match the vehicle performance, compact spare tires are smaller, narrower, and inflated to a higher pressure. The exact spare tire size can vary depending on the model year of the Chevrolet Malibu Limited; for example, a 2016 model has a T125/80 D16 97M spare tire size. It's crucial to note that due to their temporary design and limited durability, "donut" spare tires should only be driven at moderate speeds (usually under 50 mph) and for limited distances (usually not exceeding 70 miles).
2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited comes with 3 OEM tire size options. Select the original equipment the tire size installed on your vehicle to see all spare tires that have roughly the same tire diameter and can be used as a temporary replacement in the event of a flat tire. Remember that load carrying capacity of the spare tire must be the same or higher than the load carrying capacity of the original equipment tires in order to safely support the weight of your vehicle. Refer to vehicle owner's manual or contact Chevrolet dealership to confirm the correct 2016 Chevrolet Malibu Limited spare tire size.
