The 2006 Honda Accord does not use a single tire size; factory sizes vary by trim and wheel package. Typical stock sizes include 205/65R15 on 15-inch wheels, 205/60R16 on 16-inch wheels, and 235/45R17 on 17-inch wheels.
As part of the seventh generation (2003–2007), the Accord was offered with different wheel diameters depending on trim and body style (sedan vs coupe) and whether it carried a four-cylinder or V6 engine. The exact size for your car should be confirmed from the door jamb placard or the owner's manual, and may differ if aftermarket wheels were installed.

How to verify the correct size for your car
Use the following steps to confirm the exact tire size for your 2006 Honda Accord, especially if you have aftermarket wheels or a different trim than the base configuration.
- Check the door jamb placard on the driver’s side for the Tire Size listing (e.g., 205/60R16).
- Inspect the sidewall of the current tires for the size printed after the brand (e.g., P205/60R16 91T).
- Consult the owner’s manual or the service manual for the recommended tire and load/speed ratings.
- If in doubt, contact a Honda dealership or use the VIN to retrieve the exact original equipment specifications from Honda’s official sources.
Verifying the correct size ensures safe fitment, keeps speedometer readings accurate, and preserves intended handling and fuel economy.
Summary
The tire size for a 2006 Honda Accord depends on trim and wheel package. Common factory sizes include 205/65R15 (15"), 205/60R16 (16"), and 235/45R17 (17"). Always confirm with the door jamb placard or owner's manual before purchasing tires, and avoid diameter changes that can affect speedometer accuracy and performance.
