What 295/40 R20 means

295 is the section width in millimetres. 40 is the profile (sidewall height as a percentage of the width). R is radial construction. 20 is the wheel rim diameter in inches.

A full tyre size also includes a load index and speed rating, e.g. 295/40 R20 91V. The load index maps to a maximum weight per tyre, and the speed rating maps to a maximum speed at full load.

Where 295/40 R20 is commonly fitted

Premium SUVs.

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.

Frequently asked questions

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

  • Are 20-inch tyres harder to live with on UK roads?

    20-inch and larger tyres tend to ride firmer, transmit more pothole impact and wear faster than 17"-18" sizes. On a UK B-road, premium-brand tyres in this size are often worth the extra cost.

  • What do EU tyre labels show for 295/40 R20?

    Every new tyre โ€” including 295/40 R20 โ€” carries an EU label rating fuel efficiency, wet grip and external noise. For UK driving, prioritise wet grip first.

  • What speed rating should I look for on 295/40 R20?

    Speed rating is a single letter at the end of the size โ€” H (210 km/h), V (240 km/h), W (270 km/h), Y (300 km/h). Use the original specification for your car as the minimum.

  • Are summer, all-season and winter tyres available in 295/40 R20?

    Most popular UK sizes โ€” including 295/40 R20 โ€” are available as summer, all-season and winter tyres. For UK conditions, all-season tyres with the 3PMSF symbol suit drivers who want a single set year-round.

  • Is 295/40 R20 a common UK tyre size?

    295/40 R20 is fitted on a number of UK-market cars, so most major brands stock it. Cross-check our model pages to see if your specific car uses this size.
