205/60R16 Tires

What 205/60R16 means

The 205/60R16 marking is three measurements: 205 is the tread width in millimetres, 60 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height as a percentage of that width — and 16″ is the wheel rim it mounts on.

The numbers for this size

These follow from the size itself: sidewall is 205 × 60%, and the overall diameter is the 16″ rim plus that sidewall twice over. The revolutions figure is what your speedometer is calibrated against — fit a size with a noticeably different diameter and the reading drifts.

How 205/60R16 drives

This is a balanced fitment. The sidewall is short enough to keep steering precise but tall enough to take the edge off broken pavement, which is why it is the most common choice on GTA sedans and crossovers.

What we stock in 205/60R16

• Tread pattern MK625, load and speed rating 92H
• Tread pattern HD668, load and speed rating 92H

The load index and speed rating have to meet or beat what the sticker inside your driver door specifies — fitting below it is unsafe and can matter in an insurance claim. Our guide to load index and speed ratings explains how to read those codes.
