Find Tyres for Ford B-Max

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.

• What's the difference between summer and winter tyres for a Ford B-Max?

  Winter tyres use a different rubber compound that stays flexible below 7°C, plus deeper sipes for snow and slush grip. For UK Ford B-Max drivers in colder regions, dedicated winters or 3PMSF all-seasons can be worthwhile.

• How long has the Ford B-Max used the same tyre size?

  The Ford B-Max listed here is one production generation, so the OEM tyre fitments are consistent across the model's run. Trim and wheel option still affect the exact size on your specific car.

• Where can I find the tyre size for a Ford B-Max?

  On a Ford B-Max, the original tyre size is shown in three places: the existing tyre sidewall, the placard on the driver's door frame, and the vehicle handbook. The door placard is the manufacturer-specified original equipment.

• How do I find the right tyres for a Ford B-Max?

  Start with the size printed on your existing tyre sidewall — for example 205/55 R16 91V — and use it as your baseline for the Ford B-Max. Match width, profile, rim size, load index and speed rating before considering brand or pattern.

• Are all-season tyres a good choice on a Ford B-Max?

  For UK drivers, all-season tyres with the 3PMSF symbol can be a sensible compromise on the Ford B-Max — particularly if you do mixed mileage and don't want to swap between summer and winter sets twice a year.
