How wheel size changes the cost of Ford Ka tyres

The cheapest Ford Ka fitment to re-tyre is 175/65 R14 82T (Ka+) at about £315 for a mid-range fitted set; the dearest is 195/55 R15 85H (Ka+) at about £378 — 1.2 times as much.

That is 1 inch of rim, about £64 more per set for each extra inch.

Choosing premium over mid-range brands moves the most expensive set from £378 to £520.

How often you pay depends on wear as well as price: car tyre cost explains how 73 Auto turns these prices into a yearly figure for a specific car.

Limitations

Factory sizes are from 73 Auto's fitment reference; rows from the editorial compilation are medium confidence and not individually verified against a manufacturer document. A car may have been fitted with other wheels since new: check the size on the tyre itself.
