Suzuki Vitara Spare Tires
The Suzuki Vitara used a 5x5.5" (5x139.7 mm) bolt pattern for all models from 1999 to 2005 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 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 Suzuki Vitara years and options. In this case, a 145/90R16 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 Suzuki Vitara spare tire.
