A: The 215 55R18 has a narrower tread width (215mm) compared to the 225 55R18 (225mm). This affects grip, fuel efficiency, and steering response. Always check vehicle compatibility before switching.
A: A 255 55R18 tire is significantly wider, which may cause rubbing or clearance issues. Consult your vehicle manual or a tire specialist to ensure safe fitment.
A: Wider tires (225mm) may slightly improve grip on dry surfaces, but narrower tires (215mm) often perform better in snow by cutting through slush. Use winter-specific tires for optimal safety.
A: Yes, both tires are designed for 18-inch rims. However, the rim width must align with the tire manufacturer’s specifications to ensure proper mounting and performance.
A: The wider 255mm tread increases rolling resistance, potentially reducing fuel efficiency. It may also add weight, further impacting MPG. Balance performance needs with efficiency when choosing.
