Chevrolet Bolt EV Spare Tire
The Chevrolet Bolt EV does not come equipped with a traditional spare tire. Instead, the vehicle provides a tire inflator kit as a space-saving measure. This decision aids in improving efficiency, as it reduces overall vehicular weight, ultimately contributing to longer battery life. The kit contains a sealant canister to repair minor punctures and an air compressor to reinflate the tire, suitable for temporary fixes that allow the driver to reach a place where the tire can be properly serviced or replaced. However, if one opts for a traditional spare tire, the Chevy Bolt ' s stock tire size is 215/50R17 meaning the spare tire should also correspond to this measurement for optimal compatibility. The exact size, however, might change depending on the model year. Investing in run-flat tires or purchasing a spare tire separately could be alternative arrangements for Bolt EV owners.
Chevrolet Bolt EV models manufactured from 2017 to 2023 have tires with overall diameter of 25.5", allowing the use of a temporary spare tire with a near same diameter as the OEM tire. Tire diameter and wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Chevrolet Bolt EV years and trims.
Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Chevrolet Bolt EV vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 24.7" to 26.3". Some Bolt EV models may require the use of a traditional full-size tire as a spare. To ensure safe temporary mobility in case of a road emergency, always refer to the vehicle owner's manual for the correct Chevrolet Bolt EV spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
