Which Cars Use 205/65 R16C?

A standard van size: Volkswagen Transporter T5 and T6, Mercedes Vito, Renault Trafic, Vauxhall Vivaro, Nissan Primastar and some Ford Transit Custom fitments run it from the factory, and the camper conversions built on them run it too.

If your car is on this list, check the sidewall anyway; if it is not, check the sidewall anyway. Trims and wheel options vary, and the door label settles it.

What 205/65 R16C Means

The size breaks down as 205 mm of tread width, a 65 per cent profile (a sidewall roughly 133 mm tall) and a 16-inch rim, R for radial, C for a commercial-rated carcass. Put together that is an overall diameter of about 673 mm. After the size come the load index and the speed rating, and those two figures are what we check against your door-jamb label before anything is ordered.

Load and Speed Ratings on 205/65 R16C

In this size the codes you will meet are 107/105T, 107/105R and 103/101T. They are printed on the door-jamb label for your exact car and they are the first thing we check by registration, because two identical-looking cars can need different ones. Under-specifying either code is an MOT failure and an insurance risk; over-specifying is harmless.

Good to know

Do I need C-rated tyres on my Transporter camper? Yes. The C-rated 205/65 R16C with a load index matching the plated axle weights, and because campers are heavier than the base van and stand for long periods, we check age and load index with particular care.

What to Watch For on This Size

The C marks a commercial tyre with a dual load index (the first figure for single wheels, the second for twin), and the figures must meet the plated axle weights on the van's VIN plate. A car tyre of the same size is illegal on a van and an MOT failure. Campers carry more weight than the van they started as, so the load index matters even more, and tyre age matters on vehicles that stand for months. See our van tyres page.
