Tesla Model 3 Spare Tires

The Tesla Model 3 used a 5x4.5" (5x114.3 mm) bolt pattern for all models from 2017 to 2025 along with tire diameters ranging from 26.3" to 26.5" 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 Tesla Model 3 years and options. In this case, 125/80R18 and 145/60R20 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 Tesla Model 3 spare tire.
