About the 245/70R16 size
Half-inch narrower cousin of 245/75R16, S/T rated. Popular A/T size; the 31 in tall 265/75R16 is the usual upsize.
The numbers mean: 245 mm section width, sidewall height 70 % of that width, and a 16-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 29.5 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 245/70R16 tires cost?
Expect $95–$115 per tire for a budget brand, $115–$139 for a mid-range tire like the General Grabber HTS60, and $139–$204 for a premium tire like the Pirelli Scorpion. A set of four therefore starts at about $380. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use 245/70R16 tires?
245/70R16 is original equipment on Kia Sorento (2003-2009), Dodge Dakota (2005-2011), Ford Explorer (2000-2001, 4WD), Ford Ranger (2001-2011, 4x4 optional) and Toyota Tacoma (2001-2004, 2WD PreRunner), 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 245/70R16 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the General Grabber HTS60, 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 Pirelli Scorpion is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Ironman All Country A/T is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 245/70R16 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.
