The size on the placard inside the driver's door jamb is the one your car left the factory with. Match that, not this table, if they differ; a previous owner may have changed wheels.

Worth knowing about the 2016 Elantra

  • Bulbs. Trims with projector headlights use a 9005 low beam, and trims with LED taillights have sealed stop and tail lamps.
  • Spare. This vehicle carries a compact (temporary) spare.
  • Tire chains. The manual permits chains or cables of SAE Class S (low clearance), on the drive wheels only, fitted to the standard tire size. Chains for this size on Amazon →
  • Tires. Chains (SAE Class S or wire type, wire only on aluminum wheels) go on the front tires, and cars without the T125/80D15 compact spare carry a tire mobility kit instead.
  • Wheels. The manual gives wheel nut torque as a range, 65 to 79 lb-ft (9 to 11 kgf-m), rather than a single figure.
  • Key fob. Match the FCC ID (OSLOKA-360T) printed on the back of your fob when buying a replacement; the same car can use two fob designs in one year. A new fob still needs programming to the car.
  • Key fob. Trims with push-button start use a smart key that also takes a CR2032.
  • Dimensions. The figures above are for the Automatic transmission; other body configurations differ in length, wheelbase and weight.
  • Dimensions. Hyundai's 2016 brochure prints 179.1 in long and 56.3 in tall against the manual's 178.3 and 56.5.
