What size tires are on a 2015 Chevy Spark?
The 2015 Chevy Spark typically uses either 165/70R14 tires on 14-inch wheels or 185/55R15 tires on 15-inch wheels, depending on the trim and wheel package. Confirm your exact size by checking the door placard or the owner's manual.
Understanding the tire sizes for the 2015 Spark
In 2015, the Spark offered two wheel configurations. Base models rode on smaller 14-inch wheels with narrower tires, while higher trims used larger 15-inch wheels with a slightly wider, lower-profile tire. Here are the common sizes you’re likely to encounter:
- 14-inch wheels: 165/70R14
- 15-inch wheels: 185/55R15
These sizes align with the typical base versus upgraded wheel packages for the 2015 Spark. Always verify by checking the vehicle’s tire placard or owner's manual, as factory options can vary by market and trim.
Where to confirm the exact size on your car
To be certain of the correct tire size for your particular 2015 Spark, check the door jamb placard and the owner's manual, and cross-check with the tire sidewall on your current tires.
- Open the driver’s door and read the "Tire Size" line on the placard near the door latch.
- Inspect the tire sidewall for the size format (for example, 165/70R14 or 185/55R15).
- Consult the owner's manual and, if in doubt, contact a Chevrolet dealer or tire professional.
Note that if you have aftermarket wheels or a non-stock wheel package, the size may differ from the stock configuration. Always match size, load index, and speed rating when replacing tires.
Replacement considerations
When replacing tires, use sizes that preserve the sportiness and handling characteristics of the Spark and maintain accurate speedometer readings. The two common stock sizes are listed below for quick reference:
- 165/70R14 (14-inch wheels)
- 185/55R15 (15-inch wheels)
Stick with the appropriate size for your wheel diameter, ensure the load index and speed rating meet or exceed your vehicle’s requirements, and have the tires installed by a qualified technician. Mismatched sizes or incorrect diameters can affect handling and instrumentation.
Summary
The 2015 Chevy Spark commonly uses 165/70R14 tires on 14-inch wheels and 185/55R15 tires on 15-inch wheels, with the exact size determined by trim and wheel package. Always verify with the door placard or owner's manual and consult a tire professional if you plan to switch wheel sizes.
