Hyundai Ioniq 5 Tyre Reviews

Tyres are the only part of a Hyundai Ioniq 5 that touches the road, and they have more influence on braking, wet grip, noise and ride comfort than almost any other component you can change. This page collects owner reviews and buying advice for Hyundai Ioniq 5 tyres in Australia.

What to look for in Hyundai Ioniq 5 tyres

Electric SUVs are noticeably heavier than the combustion vehicles they replace, and they deliver torque instantly from a standstill. Both of those things accelerate tyre wear, which is why many EVs are fitted with tyres carrying an HL (high load) or reinforced XL designation from new. Substituting a standard-load tyre in the same size is a common and expensive mistake.

Three other characteristics matter more on an EV than on a petrol equivalent: rolling resistance, which directly affects range; noise, because there is no engine to mask it; and wet grip, because the extra mass has to be stopped. Many EV-specific tyres use a foam liner inside the casing to cut cabin noise. Check the placard carefully — EV load indices and speed ratings are often higher than the same size fitted to a combustion car.

Hyundai Ioniq 5 tyre sizes and fitment

Tyre sizes for the Ioniq 5 vary by model year, variant and wheel option, so the vehicle placard is the specification that matters. It sets out the size, the minimum load index and speed rating, and the correct pressures. You can fit a higher load index or speed rating than the placard calls for, but going below either changes the safety margin the vehicle was engineered with.

Hyundai Ioniq 5 tyre reviews from Australian owners

Every review on this page is written by someone who has actually run the tyre on their own vehicle, which is why they cover things a specification sheet cannot: how the tyre wore over 40,000 km, whether it tramlined, how loud it got as it aged, how it behaved on wet country roads at night. Filter by tyre brand or size to narrow the list, and if you have run a set on your Hyundai Ioniq 5, adding your own review helps the next owner in the same position.
