What Brand of Tires Does the 10th Generation Accord Use?
2 Answers
The 10th generation Accord uses three brands of tires, such as Bridgestone, Michelin, and Hankook. Different model years may use different tires. The tire specifications for the 10th generation Accord are 225/50-R17-94V, and the original factory tire brand is Michelin PRIMACY-3. Precautions for tire storage are as follows: 1. Please move the tires indoors during rain to prevent water from entering the tires; 2. If tires come into contact with oil or water, they are prone to damage or deformation. Therefore, store them in a place free from oil and water; 3. Do not place tires in locations where they may be damaged or deformed; 4. Avoid placing tires near generators, batteries, or similar objects; 5. When storing tires for an extended period after removal, be aware that chemicals seeping from the tires may stain the floor.
I drive a 10th-gen Accord and specifically researched the tires when I first got the car. The factory-equipped tires come from several brands, varying by production batch and mainly depending on the specific configuration. Common options include Michelin Primacy 3 ST, which focuses on quietness and comfort; Bridgestone Turanza T005 is also widely used, known for good wear resistance; Yokohama Advan dB decibel is more common on lower trim models. Mine came with 225/50 R17 Bridgestones, which have served me well for three years without issues. If you're replacing tires yourself, matching the specifications is what matters most—it doesn’t necessarily have to be the original brand, as each has its own strengths. For example, Continental tires are particularly fuel-efficient, while Dunlop offers strong wet-road grip. By the way, the most accurate way to check tire parameters is by referring to the label on the door frame.
