Hyundai tire pressures

Hyundai Palisade tire pressure

The cold tire pressures Hyundai prints in its owner's manuals for each Palisade tire size, by generation — Palisade (2nd gen, LX3) (2026 on) and Palisade (1st gen, LX2) (2020–2025). Find your tire size on the sidewall, then read across.

Notes from the owner's manuals
  • 235/65 R18: One cold-pressure figure printed in a cell spanning the front/rear normal-load and maximum-load columns (shared with 255/50 R20 and 265/45 R21): "36 (250)" (psi (kPa)).
  • 255/60 R18: Footnote *1: "For XRT Pro". One cold-pressure figure printed in a cell spanning the front/rear normal-load and maximum-load columns: "35 (240)".
What the owner's manuals don't say

Notes from the owner's manuals
  • 245/60 R18: Printed "240 (35)" (kPa (psi)) for normal load and again for maximum load, in cells shared with 245/50 R20. The 2021 manual S97 prints the same 240 (35) front and rear (no maximum-load column); the 2025 manual S98 prints 35 (240) (psi (kPa)).
  • 245/50 R20: Shares the 240 (35) cells with 245/60 R18; same in the 2021 and 2025 manuals.
What the owner's manuals don't say
  • No MY2020 manual on the host; the 2021 manual was the earliest read

Figures marked "Owner's manual" link to the maker's own document. "Reported" figures are the maker's, read from a copy we could not get from the maker directly. A figure marked ≈ has been converted from the unit the manual prints. Nothing here has been checked against your vehicle: if it disagrees with the placard on the door jamb, the placard wins.

Tire pressure questions

What should the tire pressure be on a Hyundai Palisade?

It depends on the tire size. For the sizes Hyundai lists, the cold pressure is 35–36 psi at the front and 35–36 psi at the rear. Find your size in the tables above, and check the tires cold.

What size tires does a Hyundai Palisade take?

Hyundai fitted the Palisade with 235/65 R18, 245/60 R18, 255/60 R18, 245/50 R20, 255/50 R20 and 265/45 R21, depending on the model year and trim. The size is printed on the side of your tire; the pressures above are listed by size.

Where is the tire pressure placard on a Hyundai Palisade?

On the driver's door jamb — the Tire and Loading Information placard. It gives the same cold pressures as the owner's manual, which is where the figures on this page come from; if the two ever disagree, go by the placard on your vehicle.
