Sizes and years checked against
Check your car before you buy
These are the sizes the manufacturer fitted to this model. A specific car can differ — optional alloys, a previous owner's upgrade, run-flats or a space-saver spare all change the answer. The two places that never lie are the sidewall of a tyre already on the car, and the placard in the driver's door shut. Tyres are a safety item, so confirm against one of those before ordering.

Check tyre advisories on your car
Every MOT test records tyre condition. Run a free check on any registration to see whether tyres have been flagged as worn, damaged or below the tread limit at previous tests — useful before buying, and a good prompt for when yours are due.

Frequently asked questions
What tyre size does a 2017 Seat Ateca need?
The 2017 Seat Ateca left the factory on 215/60 R16, 215/55 R17, 215/50 R18, 235/40 R19. Which of those your car uses depends on the wheels it was built with or has been fitted with since, so confirm the size on the sidewall of a tyre already on the car, or on the placard inside the driver's door shut, before you order.
Where do I find the tyre size on my car?
It is moulded into the sidewall of every tyre, reading like 205/55 R16 91V. Most cars also carry a placard in the driver's door shut, inside the fuel filler flap or in the handbook, listing the sizes and pressures the manufacturer specifies.
Can I fit a different tyre size?
Only within limits. The size affects speedometer accuracy, handling, and whether the tyre clears the bodywork and suspension, and a size below the load index the vehicle needs is dangerous and can invalidate insurance. Stick to a size the manufacturer lists for your car unless a tyre specialist has confirmed an alternative is suitable.
Do all four tyres have to be the same size?
On most cars, yes. Some performance and rear-wheel-drive models use a staggered fitment, with wider tyres on the rear than the front — those are listed separately above where they apply. Tyres on the same axle should always match in size, construction and tread pattern.
