Chevrolet Bel-Aire Spare Tires

The Chevrolet Bel-Aire used a 5x4.75" (5x120.7 mm) bolt pattern for all models from 1950 to 1957 along with tire diameters ranging from 26.1" to 27.1" tall. Using a temporary compact spare tire with a diameter close to the standard tire has many benefits, especially for modern vehicle applications.


The tire diameter and the wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for the specific Chevrolet Bel-Aire years and options. In this case, 145/60R20 and 165/70R17 spare tire sizes are used to avoid vehicle components while closely matching the original tire size diameters. We've provided a breakdown by vehicle generation and model specifics to help you find the correct Chevrolet Bel-Aire spare tire.
