How to choose tires for the 2014 dodge dart

The 2014 Dodge Dart ships from the factory on 205/55R16 tires mounted on R16 wheels. 4 approved fitments are documented for this model year, allowing some flexibility between performance, comfort, and winter compounds. The Compatible alternative sizes table above lists every safe substitution within the ETRTO ±3% overall-diameter tolerance.

Tire choice on the Dodge Dart comes down to three trade-offs that matter more than brand loyalty: load index (must equal or exceed the OEM number), speed rating (must match or exceed the placard), and UTQG treadwear (higher means longer life, lower usually means stickier rubber). Owners replacing factory tires with the same compound class, for example all-season for all-season, generally see no change in ride characteristics or fuel economy. Switching categories (performance summer to all-season touring, for example) is where the trade-offs show up at the contact patch.

For 2014 Dodge Dart owners considering a plus-size upgrade, the safer option is a Plus-1 step (one rim size up with a 10-point aspect drop and ~10 mm of additional section width). Plus-2 is technically viable on this chassis if the alternative-sizes table lists a Plus-2 candidate within tolerance, but expect a meaningful ride-harshness penalty and a tire-cost premium of 30–60% per tire relative to the OEM fitment. For winter use the recommended pattern is one width step down (e.g. from a 235 to a 225) with the aspect ratio bumped up to preserve overall diameter; narrower tires apply higher contact pressure per square inch on snow, which translates directly into shorter braking distances. The plus-size calculator evaluates any specific rim step against this OEM size.

Before purchasing, verify the tire size on the driver-door placard of your specific 2014 Dodge Dart, since trim levels and option packages can shift the original fitment from what is documented here. The placard reading is the authoritative source per FMVSS 110, and dealers will reference the placard rather than aftermarket catalogs when validating warranty claims.

In owners' own words

Verbatim excerpts from complaints filed with NHTSA about Dodge Dart. Reports are published by NHTSA as filed and are lightly cleaned here only to remove intake codes.

MY 2013 DODGE DART HAD A TIRE WITH LESS THAN 7000 MILES ON IT BUBBLE AT THE SIDEWALL. THIS WAS FOUND BY THE TIRE SHOP THAT (RIGHTLY) REFUSED TO RE-INSTALL THE TIRE. THEY DID NOT HAVE THE MODEL IN STOCK, SO I ENDED UP BUYING 2 NEW TO BE SAFE ON THE ROAD. SINCE THE DEALERSHIP DETERMINED IT WAS A IMPACT RELATED DAMAGE, IT IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY AND THERE IS NO ROAD-HAZARD. THE SAME MODEL TIRE WAS RECALLED BY KUHMO LAST YEAR ACCORDING TO THE FORUMS. I DO STILL HAVE THE OLD TIRE. THE REST OF THE TIRE LOOKS FINE AND HAS NOT BEEN ABUSED. THEIR REASONING WAS THAT IF YOU CANNOT SEE IT WHEN DEFLATED, THEN IT WAS IMPACT RELATED, NOT MANUFACTURING DEFECT. I CAN FIND IT EITHER WAY.

Frequently asked questions

What size tires fit a 2014 Dodge Dart?
The OEM tire size for the 2014 Dodge Dart is 205/55R16 mounted on R16 wheels.. Trim levels and option packages can shift the original fitment; confirm against your specific vehicle's driver-door placard before purchase.
What is the bolt pattern of a 2014 Dodge Dart?
The 2014 Dodge Dart has a 5x110 bolt pattern with a 65.1 mm center bore and M12x1.25 wheel studs. Bolt pattern is consistent across the model generation; confirm against your existing wheel before fitting aftermarket wheels or adapters.
Can I run a different tire size on my 2014 Dodge Dart?
Plus-sizing (larger rim, lower aspect) is possible within ±3% of the OEM overall diameter per the ETRTO safe-fit standard. The Compatible alternative sizes table on this page lists every safe option for the OEM size. Always confirm with the manufacturer or a qualified tire shop before deviating from the placard.
Where can I buy tires for my 2014 Dodge Dart?
Online tire retailers in our affiliate network carry every size documented for this vehicle. Use the Shop online buttons above to compare prices across them; variance of $20–$40 per tire is common between merchants. The <a href="/tools/tire-install-cost-calculator/">install cost calculator</a> estimates the out-the-door including mount, balance, TPMS, and disposal by state.
What is the recommended tire pressure for the 2014 Dodge Dart?
The cold-inflation pressure is printed on the driver-door placard of your specific vehicle and varies by trim, tire size, and loaded vs unloaded condition. Typical OEM front and rear pressures fall between 30 and 36 psi for passenger trims and 32–40 psi for SUV/truck variants, but the placard is the authoritative source.
Can I fit winter tires in a different size on my 2014 Dodge Dart?
Yes; the standard winter-tire fitment pattern is one width step narrower than OEM (e.g. 225 → 215) with the aspect ratio bumped up to preserve overall diameter. Narrower tires increase contact pressure on snow for better traction. The Compatible alternative sizes table includes any winter-friendly options that fall within ±3% OD for this vehicle.
How often should I rotate the tires on my 2014 Dodge Dart?
Every 5,000–7,500 miles is the typical OEM recommendation for passenger vehicles. AWD vehicles and high-torque trucks benefit from the shorter interval. Documented rotation history is also a tire-warranty prerequisite; most manufacturer treadwear claims require rotation receipts at the warranty inspection.

For broader tire questions; replacement timing, UTQG, EV-specific tires, winter swaps; see the tire FAQ.
