Mark44stfc Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Hello all, looking for a bit of advice on tyre sizes. I have owned my ford for just under a year (a c-max 62 plate) and I have just had my MOT where I was advised the front two tyres will soon need replacing. On the current tyres I see the following size: 215/55 r16 93H however, when I put the registration into any website I get 205/55 r16 93v does this mean I currently have the wrong tyres on or should I continue with the size currently on the car? any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.....

iantt Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 215/55/16 is the correct tyre size for your car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark44stfc Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 Thanks is there a specific reason websites have it different? I'm just being curious now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantt Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 no idea, my focus has 215/50/17 but all websites show 215/55/16, to be fair it was a ford option . the later focus and c max went to 205/55/16 , then back to 215/55/16 again a few weeks ago on new focus.

Mark44stfc Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 Fair enough. Thanks for the help.....I shall proceed with the 215's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldtail77 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I think it is related to trim level. Titanium had 215 while Zetec and Style was 205. The websites will just show the bulk model default size for that model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
