Where do I check 295/35 R21 is the right tyre for my car?
Compare 295/35 R21 to: (1) the size already on your sidewall, (2) the placard inside your driver's door, (3) your vehicle handbook, and ideally (4) a tyre fitter familiar with your model. Don't fit a size that doesn't match all of these.
What does 295/35 R21 mean?
295/35 R21 reads as: 295mm tread width, sidewall height 35% of width (≈ 103mm sidewall), and a 21-inch rim diameter. A complete size includes a load index and speed rating, e.g. 295/35 R21 91V.
Can I read 295/35 R21 backwards from a wheel listing?
If you only know the wheel — for example a 21-inch alloy with width X — the tyre size is usually engraved or labelled separately. Don't assume from rim diameter alone; many cars run different widths and profiles on the same rim size.
