What size tires are on a 2013 Toyota Avalon XLE?

The 2013 Toyota Avalon XLE uses two common stock tire sizes depending on the wheel size your car came with: 17-inch wheels use P235/55R17, while 18-inch wheels use P245/45R18. Always verify with the door jamb placard or the owner's manual for your exact vehicle.


The 2013 Avalon XLE is part of a generation that offered both 17-inch and 18-inch wheel options. The tire size is tied to the wheel diameter chosen by the factory, so the same trim can wear different tires if it was equipped with different wheels. When shopping for replacements, matching the original size is important for accurate speedometer readings, ABS behavior, and overall handling.


Factory tire sizes by wheel option


Below are the typical stock sizes associated with the two primary wheel options for the 2013 Avalon XLE. Confirm your specific vehicle’s size on the placard or manual, as variations can occur by market or aftermarket changes.



  • P235/55R17

  • P245/45R18


When selecting tires, ensure you match not only the diameter but also the load index and speed rating appropriate for the vehicle and driving conditions. If in doubt, consult a tire professional or Toyota dealer.


How to verify the exact size for your car


To confirm the precise tire size for your particular vehicle, use these checks before purchasing replacements.



  • Check the door jamb placard on the driver’s side; it lists the OEM tire size and recommended inflation pressures.

  • Consult the owner’s manual's tire information section for the standard size and specifications for your trim and year.

  • Read the current tire sidewall on any installed tire to see the size designation (for cross-checking against the placard).


Note that if the car has aftermarket wheels or has undergone wheel/tender changes, the factory size may differ. In such cases, a tire professional can help determine a safe, appropriate replacement.


Summary


For a 2013 Toyota Avalon XLE, the stock tire sizes generally align with wheel size: 17-inch wheels use P235/55R17, and 18-inch wheels use P245/45R18. Always verify the exact specification on the door placard or in the owner’s manual, especially if the car has been modified or is intended for market-specific configurations. Replacing tires with the correct size preserves performance, safety, and accuracy in metrics like the speedometer.
