Tire compatibility, Honda Odyssey

[otis24]

I’m trading my 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan for a 2016 Honda Odyssey. My Michelin X-Ics Snow SUV tires have one season on them. They are 225/65/17. Will they work on my Odyssey, factory tire size 235/65/17?

No, by definition they are skinnier, and same profile (65 series), so the sidewalls are also lower.

If tires are skinnier, then profile needs to be greater ie sidewalls taller. Load capacity needs to also be confirmed.

As long as they're load rated similarly and for the Odyssey, they'll just fine. Just slightly narrower than the Odyssey size.

It’s a load rating thing. That’s what matters.

The difference in overall diameter is about 2%.

Alot of X-ice tires seem to be XL rated, so maybe? The older odysseys seemed to be absolutely brutal on rear tires when loaded up, and maybe the newer ones, so these don't seem to be the vehicles to get under rated tires for. Also you have to run higher pressures in XL tires to actually get the XL part.

The conundrum continues in all aspects.

'Thick or thin, tire and rim?'

Minivans eat tires fast enough on the stock size, let alone anything smaller

You might get better grip on ice with the slightly skinnier tire . I’d run them.
