Hyundai Santa Cruz Spare Tire Fitment Guide
The Hyundai Santa Cruz used a 5x4.5" (5x114.3 mm) bolt pattern for all models from 2022 to 2026 along with a tire diameter of 29.6" tall. Using a temporary compact spare tire with a diameter close to the standard tire has many benefits, especially for modern vehicles with larger brake calipers and anti-lock brakes or traction control systems.
The tire diameter and the wheel diameter clearance have been taken into account for Hyundai Santa Cruz spare tire selections. In this case, a 155/90R18 temporary spare tire is the recommendation for all applications. We've provided a breakdown by vehicle generation and model specifics to help you find the correct Hyundai Santa Cruz spare tire.
2022-2026 Hyundai Santa Cruz Spare Tires
This generation of the Hyundai Santa Cruz began in 2022 and is still the current model being produced. All the models for these years use the same spare tire and wheel solution including XRT versions.
There was a facelift redesign in 2025 that changed the look of the car, but it did not have a specific impact on the spare tire size.
