Mitsubishi Lancer Spare Tire Fitment Guide
The Mitsubishi Lancer used 4x100 mm, 4x4.5" (4x114.3 mm) and 5x4.5" (5x114.3 mm) bolt pattern variations from 2002 to 2017 along with tire diameters ranging from 23.5" to 25.7" 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 the specific Mitsubishi Lancer years and options. In this case, 135/70R16, 125/80R16, 125/70R17, 125/80R17 and 125/80R18 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 Mitsubishi Lancer spare tire.
