What 235/65 R16C means
- 235: the tyre is 235 mm wide, measured across the sidewalls.
- 65: the sidewall height is 65% of the width, so 235 × 65% = 152.8 mm.
- R: radial construction.
- 16: it fits a 16-inch wheel. Overall diameter is 16 × 25.4 mm plus two sidewalls: 711.9 mm.
- C: commercial. A C tyre has a reinforced construction for van loads and carries two load numbers, for single and twin rear wheels.
The load index and speed rating follow the size on the sidewall (two load numbers and a letter on a C tyre). Replace like for like or higher, as your handbook states.

What to look for in a 235/65 R16C tyre
- Load rating first. A van tyre must match or beat the load index on the old one (both numbers), and C tyres run at higher pressures than car tyres: use the figure for your van's load, not a car's.
- Winter or all-season. If you want winter or all-season tyres in 235/65 R16C, the live list shows what is made in this size today; not every pattern is made in every size.

Frequently asked questions
What does the C in 235/65 R16C mean?
C stands for commercial. A 235/65 R16C tyre is built for van loads and carries two load index numbers, one for single and one for twin rear wheels, and it usually runs at a higher pressure than a car tyre. Replace it with another C tyre with at least the same load index.
Can I fit 235/60 R17C instead of 235/65 R16C?
Only if 235/60 R17C is listed for your car. On paper it is 713.8 mm tall against 711.9 mm for 235/65 R16C, a 0.3% difference, so the speedometer would barely change. It also needs a 17-inch wheel instead of a 16-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 235/65 R16C tyre?
About 711.9 mm (28.0 inches) across when new and unloaded: the 16-inch rim (406.4 mm) plus two sidewalls of 152.8 mm, which is 65% of the 235 mm width. Real tyres differ by a few millimetres between brands and patterns.
Which vans use 235/65 R16C tyres?
Fitment listings give 235/65 R16C for the Ford Transit, Nissan NV400 / Interstar, Renault Master, Vauxhall Movano and Volkswagen Crafter. One model can use several sizes depending on its wheels, so check the sidewall of your own tyres before you book.
