Porsche 911 Spare Tire Fitment Guide

The Porsche 911 used 5x130 mm and Center Lock bolt pattern variations from 1964 to 2026 along with tire diameters ranging from 24.2" to 29.3" 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 Porsche 911 years and options. In this case, 135/70R17, 135/80R16, 145/70R17, 135/70R18, 155/60R18, Full-Size, 125/70R19, 145/60R20, 145/65R20, 155/65R20 and 195/55R20 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 Porsche 911 spare tire.

2020-2026 Porsche 911 Spare Tires

This generation of the Porsche 911 began in 2020 and is still the current model being produced. There were multiple versions manufactured in this year range and have specific spare tire and wheel solutions for each one. The Carrera models include Carrera 4, T, S, and 4S versions.
