What 175/60 R15 means
- 175: the tyre is 175 mm wide, measured across the sidewalls.
- 60: the sidewall height is 60% of the width, so 175 × 60% = 105 mm.
- R: radial construction. A ZR in the same place is the same size with a speed marking for over 240 km/h.
- 15: it fits a 15-inch wheel. Overall diameter is 15 × 25.4 mm plus two sidewalls: 591 mm.
The load index and speed rating follow the size on the sidewall (for example 91V). Replace like for like or higher, as your handbook states.

Frequently asked questions
Is 175/60 R15 the same as 175/60 ZR15?
Yes, the dimensions are the same. The Z marks a tyre rated for over 240 km/h (149 mph); the exact rating is the letter after the load index, such as W or Y. Fit at least the speed rating your handbook gives for the car.
Can I fit 185/50 R16 instead of 175/60 R15?
Only if 185/50 R16 is listed for your car. On paper it is 591.4 mm tall against 591 mm for 175/60 R15, a 0.1% difference, so the speedometer would barely change. It also needs a 16-inch wheel instead of a 15-inch one. Wheel width, arch clearance, load index and speed rating must suit the car too, so check the handbook or the door placard, and fit one size across an axle.
How tall is a 175/60 R15 tyre?
About 591 mm (23.3 inches) across when new and unloaded: the 15-inch rim (381 mm) plus two sidewalls of 105 mm, which is 60% of the 175 mm width. Real tyres differ by a few millimetres between brands and patterns.
Which cars use 175/60 R15 tyres?
Fitment listings give 175/60 R15 for the Nissan Micra. One model can use several sizes depending on its wheels, so check the sidewall of your own tyres before you book.
