165/60 R15 price per tyre by brand tier and season
A premium-brand 165/60 R15 tyre costs 55% more than a mid-range one (£105.15 against £67.70 median).

That mid-range median is 12% more than the 15-inch average across all sizes (£60.30).
A row appears only where at least three offers exist. Run-flat tyres are excluded here and measured separately below.
| Tier | Season | Median | Middle half | Offers |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Premium | Summer | £105.15 | £96.82–£110.16 | 10 |
| Premium | All-season | £88.89 | £87.69–£98.49 | 3 |
| Mid-range | Summer | £67.70 | £60.30–£70.45 | 11 |
| Budget | Summer | £44.49 | £35.99–£47.49 | 28 |
Extra load (XL) and run-flat versions
26 of the 57 offers are XL (reinforced) and none are run-flat.
There are fewer than three like-for-like XL and standard pairs in this size, so no XL premium is given. There are too few like-for-like run-flat pairs to measure a run-flat premium.
Fit XL or run-flat tyres where the car came with them: the load index and construction are part of the approved specification.
Fitted cost of four 165/60 R15 tyres
73 Auto estimate: four times the median summer tyre price plus a typical per-tyre charge for fitting, balancing, valve and disposal at this rim size (£25.00 per tyre). Run-flat tyres and SUVs usually cost more to fit.
| Tier | Tyre median | Fitting per tyre | Set of four fitted |
|---|---|---|---|
| Premium | £105.15 | £25.00 | £521 |
| Mid-range | £67.70 | £25.00 | £371 |
| Budget | £44.49 | £25.00 | £278 |
