What 265/35 R22 means
- 265: the tyre is 265 mm wide, measured across the sidewalls.
- 35: the sidewall height is 35% of the width, so 265 × 35% = 92.8 mm.
- R: radial construction. A ZR in the same place is the same size with a speed marking for over 240 km/h.
- 22: it fits a 22-inch wheel. Overall diameter is 22 × 25.4 mm plus two sidewalls: 744.3 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.
Cars that use 265/35 R22
Manufacturer and tyre-maker fitment listings give 265/35 R22 for these models, usually as one of several wheel options. The size on your own tyres, or on the placard in the door frame, is the one to match.
| Make | Model | Generation |
|---|---|---|
| Tesla | Model X | First generation (2015-2021) |
| Tesla | Model X | Refresh (2021-2026) |
| Volvo | XC60 | Mk2 (2017-, incl. 2021 facelift) |
What to look for in a 265/35 R22 tyre
- Low profile, less cushion. A 92.8 mm sidewall on a 22-inch wheel leaves little to absorb a pothole or a kerb, so check for bulges and rim damage after a hard hit, and have the wheel alignment checked if the steering pulls or the new tyres wear on one edge.
- 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.
- Electric cars. This size is common on EVs, which are heavier than a petrol car of the same size. Keep at least the original load index (some EVs use HL or XL tyres), and check the tread more often: the extra weight and instant torque can wear tyres faster.
- Winter or all-season. If you want winter or all-season tyres in 265/35 R22, the live list shows what is made in this size today; not every pattern is made in every size.

Frequently asked questions
Is 265/35 R22 the same as 265/35 ZR22?
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 265/40 R21 instead of 265/35 R22?
Only if 265/40 R21 is listed for your car. On paper it is 745.4 mm tall against 744.3 mm for 265/35 R22, a 0.1% difference, so the speedometer would barely change. It also needs a 21-inch wheel instead of a 22-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 265/35 R22 tyre?
About 744.3 mm (29.3 inches) across when new and unloaded: the 22-inch rim (558.8 mm) plus two sidewalls of 92.8 mm, which is 35% of the 265 mm width. Real tyres differ by a few millimetres between brands and patterns.
Which cars use 265/35 R22 tyres?
Fitment listings give 265/35 R22 for the Tesla Model X and Volvo XC60. One model can use several sizes depending on its wheels, so check the sidewall of your own tyres before you book.
