How to use this range
Rim width compatibility is a first-pass check, not the whole fitment decision. A tyre can be inside the section-width range and still fail because of vehicle clearance, load rating, speed rating, offset, centre bore or local approval rules.
For a final decision, match the tyre maker's approved rim range, the vehicle placard and the wheel specification. Wider or narrower rims can change sidewall shape, steering feel and rim protection even when the tyre mounts physically.

Planning a long summer drive?
Use the budget and running-cost tools before a trip, especially if the current tyres are worn or the replacement size changes diameter.
