How to read your tyre size
What does 215/65 R16 mean?
Taking 215/65 R16 as an example: the first number is the tyre width in millimetres. The second number is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height as a percentage of the width. The final number after the R is the rim diameter in inches.
Where to find your tyre size
Your tyre size is printed on the sidewall of every tyre in the format shown above. You can also find the manufacturer's recommended size on the sticker inside the driver's door jamb, or in your vehicle handbook.
Can I fit a different size?
Changing tyre size is possible in some cases but can affect speedometer accuracy, handling, and may cause clearance issues. Always stick to the manufacturer's recommended size unless you have confirmed with a qualified tyre fitter that an alternative is safe.
Frequently asked questions
How often should I replace tyres on my Nissan Qashqai?
Replace tyres when tread depth reaches the legal minimum of 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tyre. Most manufacturers also recommend replacement after 7 years regardless of tread depth, as rubber degrades over time.
Do I need to replace all four tyres at once?
Not necessarily — but tyres on the same axle should always be replaced in pairs to maintain even handling. On all-wheel-drive vehicles, replacing all four at once is often recommended to protect the drivetrain.
How can I check how old my tyres are?
Look for the DOT code on the tyre sidewall. The last four digits tell you the week and year of manufacture — for example, 2319 means week 23 of 2019. Use the
TyreScan DOT checker for an instant age and safety verdict.
What tyre pressure should I use on my Nissan Qashqai?
Recommended pressures are found on the sticker inside the driver's door jamb or in your vehicle handbook. Pressures differ depending on load and speed — always check when cold (before driving more than a couple of miles).
