Chrysler Newport Spare Tires
The Chrysler Newport used a 5x4.5" (5x114.3 mm) bolt pattern for all models from 1974 to 1981 along with tire diameters ranging from 26.3" 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 Chrysler Newport 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 Chrysler Newport spare tire.
