All 255/85R16 tires

255/85R16 is also written 255 85 R16, 255/85 R16, 255 85 16 or 2558516. 255 is the tread width in millimetres, 85 the aspect ratio (sidewall height as a percentage of the width), R stands for radial construction, and 16 the rim diameter in inches.

A 255/85R16 tire is about 839.9 mm (33.1 in) tall, with a sidewall of 216.8 mm.

An equivalent size is a tire whose overall diameter stays within 3% of 255/85R16, so the speedometer, gearing and wheel-well clearance stay close to what the vehicle was designed for. People look for one when 255/85R16 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.
