2012 Nissan Altima Tire Sizes

The 2012 Nissan Altima is listed with three tire sizes: 215/55R17, 215/60R16, and 235/45R18. These are the sizes provided for this model year; the right fit depends on the vehicle’s original equipment and trim.

In each tire-size code, the first number is the tire width, the number after the slash is the sidewall aspect ratio, and the number after R is the wheel diameter in inches. The listed sizes therefore describe different tire and wheel combinations, not interchangeable options for every Altima. Check the tire information for your specific vehicle before choosing a replacement.

The facts list no engine-by-engine or trim-by-trim fitment details, so they do not establish which size belongs to a particular Altima. If your vehicle’s size is not shown or you are unsure which listing applies, confirm it on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual.
