About this generation
The current-generation Honda HR-V (2015-2021) is sold in the UK with a small set of factory tyre sizes per trim. Replacement tyres should match the size, load index and speed rating of what came on your specific car.
The Honda HR-V is an SUV/crossover, so the original tyres carry a higher load index for the extra weight and ride height. Replacement tyres should match or exceed the original load rating.
Chassis codes: RU, RV. Use the chassis code to confirm you have the right generation when ordering tyres.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
What should Honda HR-V drivers know about UK potholes?
UK road conditions are tough on tyres. Check sidewall bulges, cuts and tread depth regularly — especially on the inside edge, which often wears unevenly. A 20p coin gives a quick legal-tread check.
Can I downsize from larger wheels on my Honda HR-V?
Some trims of the HR-V can be downsized to a smaller OEM-approved wheel, which often gives better ride and lower tyre cost. Honda usually publishes approved alternative sizes — check the handbook before changing wheel size.
Are all-season tyres suitable for the Honda HR-V?
All-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol are a sensible choice for UK Honda HR-V drivers who don't want to swap between summer and winter sets. Confirm the size and load rating match your OEM spec.
How long should tyres last on the 2015-2021 Honda HR-V?
Typical UK tread life on the Honda HR-V is around 20,000-40,000 miles depending on tyre brand, road conditions and driving style. Heavier trims tend to wear faster.
What does the chassis code RU mean for tyre choice?
The RU/RV chassis code identifies this specific generation of the Honda HR-V. Tyre fitment guides and parts catalogues use the chassis code to match correct sizes, load indices and speed ratings — useful when ordering online.
