Tyre size descriptions reveal critical information that will allow you to identify products that fit your vehicle. 155/65 R14 tyres are used by many small cars, and you can find a great selection of eco tyres and economy tyres in this size at mytyres.co.uk, at very affordable prices. If you find this description a little confusing, here is what it means.
The number 155 stands for cross-section width - the distance between the two sidewalls, at the point where they are furthest apart. Thus, this is a little more than the width of the tread, the part that actually contacts the road. Expressed in millimetres, this is an approximate value - small differences from tyre to tyre are normal.
The number 65 indicates the aspect ratio, giving us sidewall height in relation to cross-section width. In plain English, sidewall height is, in this case, 65% of 155 mm. Next, we can see that this is a radial tyre, thanks to the R' marking. The final indicator is the number 14 - 14 inch rims will accept this tyre.
