What 225/55 R19 means
- 225: the tyre is 225 mm wide, measured across the sidewalls.
- 55: the sidewall height is 55% of the width, so 225 × 55% = 123.8 mm.
- R: radial construction. A ZR in the same place is the same size with a speed marking for over 240 km/h.
- 19: it fits a 19-inch wheel. Overall diameter is 19 × 25.4 mm plus two sidewalls: 730.1 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 225/55 R19 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 103V. The rating differs between cars and engines, so match the marking on your own tyres or in the handbook, or go higher.

Frequently asked questions
Is 225/55 R19 the same as 225/55 ZR19?
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 245/45 R20 instead of 225/55 R19?
Only if 245/45 R20 is listed for your car. On paper it is 728.5 mm tall against 730.1 mm for 225/55 R19, a 0.2% difference, so the speedometer would barely change. It also needs a 20-inch wheel instead of a 19-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 225/55 R19 tyre?
About 730.1 mm (28.7 inches) across when new and unloaded: the 19-inch rim (482.6 mm) plus two sidewalls of 123.8 mm, which is 55% of the 225 mm width. Real tyres differ by a few millimetres between brands and patterns.
Which cars use 225/55 R19 tyres?
Fitment listings give 225/55 R19 for the Citroen C5 Aircross, Ford Kuga, Mazda CX-5, MG HS (petrol, Hybrid+, Plug-in Hybrid), Nissan X-Trail and Peugeot 3008, among others. One model can use several sizes depending on its wheels, so check the sidewall of your own tyres before you book.
