All 205/55R16 tires

205/55R16 is also written 205 55 R16, 205/55 R16, 205 55 16 or 2055516. 205 is the tread width in millimetres, 55 the aspect ratio (sidewall height as a percentage of the width), R stands for radial construction, and 16 the rim diameter in inches.

A 205/55R16 tire is about 631.9 mm (24.9 in) tall, with a sidewall of 112.8 mm.

An equivalent size is a tire whose overall diameter stays within 3% of 205/55R16, so the speedometer, gearing and wheel-well clearance stay close to what the vehicle was designed for. People look for one when 205/55R16 is scarce or expensive, or when they want a different width or rim size. An equivalent size is not an automatic swap, and we do not guarantee that it fits your vehicle: check the rim width range, make sure the load index is at least the original, and allow for possible rubbing. Add your car above and rely on the “Fits on your vehicle” label shown on each product to confirm the fit.
