What 275/35 R20 means
- 275: the tyre is 275 mm wide, measured across the sidewalls.
- 35: the sidewall height is 35% of the width, so 275 × 35% = 96.2 mm.
- R: radial construction. A ZR in the same place is the same size with a speed marking for over 240 km/h.
- 20: it fits a 20-inch wheel. Overall diameter is 20 × 25.4 mm plus two sidewalls: 700.5 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 275/35 R20
Manufacturer and tyre-maker fitment listings give 275/35 R20 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.
What to look for in a 275/35 R20 tyre
- Low profile, less cushion. A 96.2 mm sidewall on a 20-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.
- Winter or all-season. If you want winter or all-season tyres in 275/35 R20, the live list shows what is made in this size today; not every pattern is made in every size.

Frequently asked questions
Is 275/35 R20 the same as 275/35 ZR20?
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 275/30 R21 instead of 275/35 R20?
Only if 275/30 R21 is listed for your car. On paper it is 698.4 mm tall against 700.5 mm for 275/35 R20, a 0.3% difference, so the speedometer would barely change. It also needs a 21-inch wheel instead of a 20-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 275/35 R20 tyre?
About 700.5 mm (27.6 inches) across when new and unloaded: the 20-inch rim (508 mm) plus two sidewalls of 96.2 mm, which is 35% of the 275 mm width. Real tyres differ by a few millimetres between brands and patterns.
Which cars use 275/35 R20 tyres?
Fitment listings give 275/35 R20 for the BMW 5 Series and Jaguar XJ. One model can use several sizes depending on its wheels, so check the sidewall of your own tyres before you book.
