205/40 R16 Width, Profile and Rim

205/40 R16 is a low-profile size of tyre mostly used on small cars for a 16-inch wheel size upgrade rather than a common original fitment. 205 is the width in mm, 40 is the ratio of the sidewall to the width, so here the sidewall is 40% of 205mm, giving 82mm, and R16 means a radial tyre on a 16-inch rim giving an overall diameter of 570mm. The short sidewall means the tyre has less cushioning over rough surfaces. We sell 205/40 R16 tyres at Tyres.co.uk.
