What 175/60 R14 means

175 is the section width in millimetres. 60 is the profile (sidewall height as a percentage of the width). R is radial construction. 14 is the wheel rim diameter in inches.

A full tyre size also includes a load index and speed rating, e.g. 175/60 R14 91V. The load index maps to a maximum weight per tyre, and the speed rating maps to a maximum speed at full load.

Where 175/60 R14 is commonly fitted

Small cars and city cars.

Even when a tyre size is common, the specific tyre that's right for your vehicle depends on the load index, speed rating, and sometimes whether the original equipment is run-flat or EV-rated. Always confirm with your tyre sidewall, vehicle handbook or a qualified UK tyre fitter before fitting.

  • Can I fit a different size to 175/60 R14?

    Only fit a size approved for your specific car. Changing width, profile, rim, load or speed rating affects handling, braking, fuel economy and MOT. Approved alternatives are usually listed in the vehicle handbook.

  • Can 175/60 R14 tyres be repaired after a puncture?
