Kia Sorento Spare Tire

The Kia Sorento, a popular midsize SUV produced by the South Korean manufacturer Kia Motors, typically comes equipped with a compact size spare tire also known as a "donut" as a standard. This type of spare tire is usually smaller than the vehicle's regular tires, with a narrower profile and smaller diameter, designed for temporary use in case of a flat tire or tire damage while on the road. This type is not designed for sustained use or speed, and should be replaced with a regular tire as soon as possible. The exact size of the spare tire can variate, so for accurate information, owners should refer to the vehicle user manual or spare tire's sidewall, but most commonly for Kia Sorento the compact spare tire is around 17 or 18 inches in diameter.

Kia Sorento models manufactured from 2003 to 2025 have tires with overall diameter ranging from 29.1" to 29.5", 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 Kia Sorento years and trims.

Listed below are compact spare tire sizes that can fit some Kia Sorento vehicles based on acceptable tire diameter range of 28.2" to 30.4". Some Sorento 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 Sorento spare tire size designated by vehicle's manufacturer.
