A stronger sidewall lets this tyre carry more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. Marked XL on the sidewall.
The 245/40 R17 is a low-profile size that would have been fitted to a BMW Z3 M Roadster and an M Coupe in a staggered set. 245 is the width in mm. 40 is an aspect ratio that produces a sidewall measuring 98mm. Since the sidewall is shorter it flexes less which improves handling. R17 means the tyre has a radial construction and is made to fit a 17-inch wheel. The overall diameter of this tyre is 628mm. Tyres.co.uk sells this size and has runflat and XL variants.
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.
The price shown for mail-order tyres covers the tyre only (including VAT). Once you’ve selected your tyres and proceed to the basket, a delivery fee will be added to your order. Please be aware that certain areas of the country may incur additional delivery charges and, in some cases, slightly longer delivery times.
