What 205/60 R16 means
- 205: the tyre is 205 mm wide, measured across the sidewalls.
- 60: the sidewall height is 60% of the width, so 205 × 60% = 123 mm.
- R: radial construction. A ZR in the same place is the same size with a speed marking for over 240 km/h.
- 16: it fits a 16-inch wheel. Overall diameter is 16 × 25.4 mm plus two sidewalls: 652.4 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.

What to look for in a 205/60 R16 tyre
- Check the load index. Many of the SUVs, crossovers and vans on this size are heavy, and some are fitted with reinforced (XL) tyres. Match or beat the load index on the tyres you are replacing.
- Load and speed ratings. Tyre-maker listings for the cars on this size give load indexes 84 to 96 with speed ratings T, H and V. The rating differs between cars and engines, so match the marking on your own tyres or in the handbook, or go higher.
- Winter or all-season. If you want winter or all-season tyres in 205/60 R16, the live list shows what is made in this size today; not every pattern is made in every size.

Frequently asked questions
Is 205/60 R16 the same as 205/60 ZR16?
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 225/55 R16 instead of 205/60 R16?
Only if 225/55 R16 is listed for your car. On paper it is 653.9 mm tall against 652.4 mm for 205/60 R16, a 0.2% difference, so the speedometer would barely change. 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 205/60 R16 tyre?
About 652.4 mm (25.7 inches) across when new and unloaded: the 16-inch rim (406.4 mm) plus two sidewalls of 123 mm, which is 60% of the 205 mm width. Real tyres differ by a few millimetres between brands and patterns.
Which cars use 205/60 R16 tyres?
Fitment listings give 205/60 R16 for the Audi A4, BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, Citroen C3 Aircross, Dacia Sandero Stepway, Fiat Grande Panda and Ford Focus, among others. One model can use several sizes depending on its wheels, so check the sidewall of your own tyres before you book.
