155/80 R15 Tyres

155/80 R15 tyres are installed in dynamic family cars. The size of the tyre can be seen on its sidewall in a form of a string of numbers and a letter denoting the tyre's type of construction. The "R" in the tyre's size denotes its radial construction. The first number informs about the tyre's tread width. In this case it is 155 millimetres. The second number equals the tyre profile's height and its percentage ratio to the tyre's tread width. In the case of the 155/80 R15 tyre it is 80% out of 155 mm. The number 15 constitutes the diameter of the wheel rim (provided in inches) on which the 155/80 R15 tyre should be installed. See the 155/80 R15 tyre model in our broad selection.
