How much fuel the tyre uses as it rolls. Graded A to E, where A is the most efficient and E the least.
How well the tyre stops in the wet. Graded A to E, where A is the shortest stopping distance. Each grade is worth roughly 3 metres, about a car length.
How loud the tyre is from outside the car, measured in decibels. Graded A to C, where A is the quietest.
Designed for cars, rather than vans, 4x4s or commercial vehicles.
A stronger sidewall lets this tyre carry more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. Marked XL on the sidewall.
Built to handle both summer and winter conditions, so the same tyres can stay on all year instead of being swapped twice.
215/55 R17 is the size found as standard on family Ford, Vauxhall and Volvo models. 215 is easy. 215mm is the width. 55 is the sidewall as a percentage of the width. So, in this case, 55% of 215 is 118mm. R17 indicates a 17-inch rim diameter, and therefore a 17-inch radial tyre. This size yields a 668mm overall tyre diameter. This size helps these family cars absorb rough surfaces. We sell 215/55 R17, including variations, on our site at Tyres.co.uk.
We take care of everything for you with our fully fitted prices:
You pay online for the tyres and the fitting, so when you come for your appointment, there are no extra charges for the tyre fitting.
