Honda CUV e: tyres

The Honda CUV e: runs one fitment, 100/90-12 59J. It is staggered: a 100 section at the front and a 110 at the back, so the two can never be swapped across axles and the rear goes first.
Every fitment
| Generation | Trim | Wheel | Tyre size | Load index | Speed | Construction | Marking | Pressure |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Current | CUV e: | 12in cast | 100/90-12 front, 110/90-12 rear | 59 | J | SL | none | see plate |
Your own placard is the authority. You will find it on the the specifications section of the owner's manual. Where it disagrees with this page, it wins. Match or exceed the size, load index, speed rating and construction class it gives, and use its pressure figure rather than anything printed on the tyre.
What changes on this machine
Both wheels are 12 inch but the sizes are not the same, a 100/90 front and a 110/90 rear, so the tyres cannot be swapped end to end.
Ratings are 59J front and 64J rear, 243kg and 280kg. J stands for 100km/h, comfortably above what the CUV e: can reach, so the load index is the figure that decides a replacement.
No tyres listed against this fitment yet. Product specifications are published from each manufacturer's own data and that work is not finished for 100/90-12. Match or exceed every figure in the table above and you cannot go far wrong.

Including the manufacturer's own published figure. Neither source is standing next to your vehicle, which is why the placard still wins.
Common questions
- What size tyres does the Honda CUV e: take?
- It runs 100/90-12. The exact fitment for your machine is on The specifications section of the owner's manual.
- Can I fit a cheaper tyre to a Honda CUV e:?
- Only at 100/90-12 59J or better. That is the figure to hold: a tyre below the load index, the speed rating or the construction class is not a cheaper one, it is the wrong one.
