- 65: the sidewall height is 65% of the width, so 225 × 65% = 146.2 mm.
- R: radial construction. A ZR in the same place is the same size with a speed marking for over 240 km/h.
- 17: it fits a 17-inch wheel. Overall diameter is 17 × 25.4 mm plus two sidewalls: 724.3 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 225/65 R17 the same as 225/65 ZR17?
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 225/70 R16 instead of 225/65 R17?
Only if 225/70 R16 is listed for your car. On paper it is 721.4 mm tall against 724.3 mm for 225/65 R17, a 0.4% difference, so the speedometer would barely change. It also needs a 16-inch wheel instead of a 17-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 225/65 R17 tyre?
About 724.3 mm (28.5 inches) across when new and unloaded: the 17-inch rim (431.8 mm) plus two sidewalls of 146.2 mm, which is 65% of the 225 mm width. Real tyres differ by a few millimetres between brands and patterns.
Which cars use 225/65 R17 tyres?
Fitment listings give 225/65 R17 for the Ford Kuga, Honda CR-V, Jaguar E-Pace, Land Rover Range Rover Evoque, Lexus NX and Mazda CX-5, among others. One model can use several sizes depending on its wheels, so check the sidewall of your own tyres before you book.
