About the 205/60R16 size
Mid-size sedan size, mostly H-rated with T options. Good tread-life touring tires dominate; easy to find on sale.
The numbers mean: 205 mm section width, sidewall height 60 % of that width, and a 16-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 25.7 inches. Any replacement has to match all three, and the load index and speed rating on your door sticker must be met or exceeded. Our guide on reading a tire size walks through it.

Frequently asked questions
How much do 205/60R16 tires cost?
Expect $67–$84 per tire for a budget brand, $84–$124 for a mid-range tire like the General AltiMAX RT45, and $124–$174 for a premium tire like the Michelin Defender2. A set of four therefore starts at about $268. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use 205/60R16 tires?
205/60R16 is original equipment on Ford Fusion (2006-2012, S/SE), Nissan Sentra (2013-2019, S/SV), Toyota Prius v (2012-2017), Kia Optima (2011-2015, LX), Honda Accord (2003-2007, EX), Mazda6 (2003-2008, i) and Kia Soul (2014-2019, base), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best 205/60R16 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the General AltiMAX RT45, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the Michelin Defender2 is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Ironman iMove Gen 2 AS is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 205/60R16 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
