## 2020-2025 Nissan Sentra factory tire sizes (Verified)

| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| S, SV (16-in) | 205/60R16 | 33 psi | N/A |

## 2020-2025 Nissan Sentra bolt pattern and lug nut torque

| Spec | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x114.3 |
| Lug nut torque | 83 lb-ft |
| Spare tire | T125/70D16 compact spare at 60 psi |

Tighten in a star pattern with a torque wrench, then re-check after roughly 50 miles. An impact gun routinely overshoots the figure above by 100 lb-ft or more, which warps rotors and stretches studs.
