225/70 R16 Tyres in the UAE

The numbers are simple to read. 225 is the tyre width in millimetres. 70 is the profile, which means the sidewall height is 70 percent of the width, or about 158 mm. R16 means a radial tyre for a 16 inch wheel. Fully inflated, a 225/70 R16 tyre stands roughly 722 mm tall.

In Dubai and the Northern Emirates this size is mostly seen on pickups, older 4x4s and vehicles that regularly drive on sand and gravel. Always check the size printed on your tyre sidewall before you order. Pick an all terrain pattern for mixed road and desert use, or a mud terrain pattern for regular off road driving.

How much a 225/70 R16 tyre costs in the UAE comes down to the brand and the pattern. Premium tyres from Michelin, Bridgestone and BFGoodrich cost more but usually last longer, while General, Falken and Maxxis keep the price down.
