Kia Forte Spare Tire

The Kia Forte typically comes with a compact or "donut" spare tire. This smaller, temporary tire is designed for emergency situations and limited use, and it is stored in the trunk of the vehicle, often beneath the floorboard. Compact spare tires are included to save on weight, space, and cost. The size of the spare tire for a Kia Forte varies based on the year and model of the vehicle, but generally, a spare tire size for a Kia Forte is around T125/80D15. It's critical to remember that spare tires are not intended for long-term or high-speed usage and should be replaced with a full-size tire as soon as possible.

Kia Forte models manufactured from 2010 to 2024 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 24.6" to 25.1", 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 Kia Forte years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Kia Forte vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 23.9" to 25.9". Some Forte 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 Kia Forte spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
