About the Hyundai Kona's tyres
The Hyundai Kona landed in South Africa in October 2018 as a 1.0 turbo manual or 2.0 automatic, both Executive grade on 17-inch alloys with 215/55 R17 tyres. The 2021 facelift kept the 2.0 Executive on 17s and added the 1.6 T-GDi Executive and N Line on 18-inch alloys with 235/45 R18 tyres. The 2.0 Executive is the volume seller, so 215/55 R17 is the size most local Konas need.
Before you order, check the size on the sticker inside the driver's door or on your current tyres: derivatives and wheel options change the size. Read how to read a tyre size or when to replace tyres.
