Find Tyres for 2013-2015 McLaren P1

Frequently asked questions

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

• What tyre size does the 2013-2015 McLaren P1 use?

  Common UK factory fitments for the 2013-2015 McLaren P1 include 245/35 R19, 315/30 R20. The exact size depends on the wheel and trim ordered — always confirm on your tyre sidewall before fitting.

• Are all-season tyres suitable for the McLaren P1?

  All-season tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake symbol are a sensible choice for UK McLaren P1 drivers who don't want to swap between summer and winter sets. Confirm the size and load rating match your OEM spec.

• The P1 uses 19" or larger wheels — what should I know?

  Larger wheels mean lower-profile tyres with shorter sidewalls — that means firmer ride, more pothole sensitivity and shorter tyre life on UK roads. Premium tyres usually repay the extra cost on cars with 19"+ wheels.

• What wet grip should I look for on the McLaren P1?

  For UK driving conditions, prioritise an EU tyre label wet-grip rating of A or B. Wet grip directly affects braking distance — the gap between A and E ratings can be more than a car length at 50 mph.

• Where should I check the original tyre size for my McLaren P1?

  Look in three places: (1) the sidewall of the existing tyre, (2) the placard inside the driver's door frame, and (3) the vehicle handbook. The driver's door placard is the official OEM specification, and the sidewall confirms what's fitted now.
