225/65R17 is currently the most common tire size in the United States, and it’s commonly used on CUVs such as the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, Ford Escape, Chevrolet Equinox, and Nissan Rogue. These vehicles are often at their best when paired with all-season tires, such as the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season Plus 2, Continental CrossContact LX25, Yokohama Geolandar CV G058, Toyo Celsius CUV, or Falken Ziex CT60 A/S.
215/55R17 is the second most common tire size with a 17” diameter and is commonly used on coupes and sedans such as the Honda Accord, Chevrolet Malibu, Hyundai Sonata, and Toyota Camry. These vehicles are often paired with all season tires like the Pirelli Cinturato P7 All Season Plus, Goodyear Assurance All Season, General Altimax RT43, or Falken Sincera SN250 AS.
265/70R17 is a common size for pickup trucks and large SUVs, with popular fitments including the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ram 1500, Ford F-150, GMC Sierra 1500, Jeep Wrangler, and Toyota 4Runner. Larger vehicles like this are often used to haul materials to and from a job site, so they should be paired with highway terrain tires like the Bridgestone Dueler H/T 685, Yokohama Geolandar H/T G056, or General Grabber HTS60. Some of these drivers, especially the ones who own a Jeep Wrangler, need a tire that performs on- and off-road, so they might want to use all terrain tires like the Toyo Open Country A/T III, Falken Wildpeak AT3W, or Nitto Terra Grappler G2.
225/45R17 is the performance-oriented size within the 17” diameter family, and can be found on powerful vehicles like the Alfa Romeo Giulietta, Audi A3, BMW 3 Series, Lexus IS, Lotus Elise, and Maserati Quattroporte. These vehicles are at their best when paired with ultra-high-performance tires such as the Goodyear Eagle Exhilarate, Pirelli P Zero Nero GT, Yokohama Advan Apex V601, and Nitto NT555 G2.
