The best place to find your tyre size is on the sidewall of the tyres currently fitted to your car. Some vehicles such as BMW’s & Mercedes have different sized tyres on the front and rear so if you check on the tyre you need replacing you can be sure you’re replacing your tyre with one exactly the same size. Reading the markings on your tyres may look confusing, however once you know what to look for finding your tyre size is actually fairly easy.
Tyre size information can also be found:
• In your vehicle handbook
• Inside the fuel flap
• Inside your glove box
• Inside the driver’s door panel
Top Tip: If you have a smart phone then take a quick photograph of the numbers on the side wall of your tyre. This way you’ll always have your tyre size to hand – when you’ve learnt how to crack the code!
