The first three digits. This displays the width of the tyre in millimetres. A tyre marked 225 will measure 225mm across the tread from sidewall to sidewall.
The fourth and fifth digits of the tyre code that immediately follow the tyre width. The aspect ratio or profile height of the tyre sidewall is expressed as a percentage of the tyre width. So an aspect ratio of 55 for example means that the profile height of the tyre is 55% of its width.
The next two digits represent the size of the wheel rim that the tyre can be fitted to. It is also the diameter of the tyre from bead to bead. So a tyre marked 16 will fit on a 16-inch wheel rim.
Speed Rating
The speed rating of a tyre is represented by a letter of the alphabet at the end of the tyre size code and indicates the maximum speed capability of the tyre. Tyres receive a speed rating based on a series of tests which measure the tyres capability to handle a set speed for a prolonged period of time.
Select your tyre speed rating to find out the maximum speed your tyres can maintain.
If you are unsure what speed rating you need, be sure to check your vehicle handbook. Choosing a lower speed rating than that recommended by your vehicle manufacturer could potentially invalidate your insurance.

Will certainly keep using and bringing my company vehicles with any issues going forward. Gas Flow Heating LtdTuesday 22nd March 2022
Rhodri Hopes5 StarDropped in at very short notice to fix an issue with my bump stops. Steve, Gary and the team went out of their way to explain the best course of action (absolutely not the expensive option) and then fix it. A very good experience. Thank you.Tuesday 29th March 2022
Russell Jones5 StarNeeded a new tyre and the lease company advised me to contact Kwik Fit as the approved supplier. My previous dealings with Kwik Fit have not gone well and I view them as a poor company with awful customer service. However, I made a call on Thursday to make sure the correct tyre was available on my Friday visit. On arrival there was no confusion and everything was taken care of quickly without any fuss. Overall a great and surprising experience.Thursday 24th March 2022
Alistair Wilson5 StarI've been a customer of this branch since the 1980s. I have never received poor service in all that time. Yes, there have been times when they are very busy, and wait times have been rather long, but that is part and parcel of a walk in service centre. Nowadays they offer bookings, and are always helpful in finding the right time. More importantly I find the staff to always be cheerful and polite. I guess the most important point is that whenever I have to go there, mainly with punctures, I never dread the visit.Tuesday 4th January 2022
