An
Acura TLX
’s tire size can vary depending on the model year and
trim level
making many factors to determine the best tires for your Acura TLX.
The tire size of a standard 2017 Acura TLX is 225/55R17.
  • The 225 means the tire has a width of 225 millimeters.
  • The 55 means the tire’s height is 55% of its width.
  • The R means the tire’s inner layers lie radially.
  • The 18 means it has an 18-inch diameter.
Enure the speed rating and load index are also compatible with your Acura TLX.
When it comes to tire types, here are some to consider for your Acura TLX:
  • All-season car tires: All-season tires provide reliable traction, handling, and ride comfort year-round.
  • Performance all-season car tires: These tires have increased gripping power and a higher speed rating than typical all-season tires.
  • Winter/snow tires: These are for snowy and icy conditions, so you can swap your summer tires for these as fall and winter move in.
  • Ultra-high performance (UHP) tires: These tires can help improve traction and overall handling. Some are year-round, while others are for warm seasons. However, the tread on UHP tires can wear faster than some all-season tires.
