About the 235/65R16 size

Odyssey and first-gen Equinox size, T or H. Load index 103; buy touring or CUV tires rated for minivan weight.

What the numbers on the sidewall mean

A 235/65R16 tire is 235 millimeters wide, its sidewall is 65 percent of that (about 6.0 inches tall), and it mounts on a 16-inch wheel. That works out to an overall diameter of roughly 28 inches. Every replacement has to match all three numbers, and the load index and speed rating on the placard inside the driver's door have to be met or exceeded.

In this size our picks are marked 103H on the Kelly Edge Touring Plus (1,929 lb per tire, rated to 130 mph) and 103T on the General AltiMAX RT45 and Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus (1,929 lb per tire, rated to 118 mph). The first number is the load index, the letter the speed rating; a tire with equal or higher values than your placard is fine, a lower one is not.

Our guide on reading a tire size walks through the markings, and this one lists every load index and speed code.

Our three picks, side by side

One tire at each price level from what the retailer stocks in this size, with the mileage warranty and UTQG grades as published by the manufacturers and their retailers. Treadwear is the number to compare: it is a relative wear rate, so 700 should last roughly twice as long as 350 on the same car.

The same tires in neighboring sizes

The General AltiMAX RT45, our mid-range pick here at $148.99, is also stocked in 235/65R18 ($194.99), 195/50R16 ($142.99), 205/55R16 ($128.99) and 205/60R16 ($124.99).

Useful if your vehicle came with a different wheel package, or if you are comparing an upsize: the same tire usually costs more per inch of wheel, not per inch of rubber.

Winter on a minivan in this size

Minivans are front-wheel drive with few exceptions, so under Colorado's Passenger Vehicle Traction Law, in force on the 126 miles of I-70 between Dotsero and Morrison from September 1 to May 31, the tires carry the burden: they must be marked M+S, 3PMSF or rated all-weather by the manufacturer, with at least 3/16 inch of tread, and fines start at $130. The touring all-seasons that fit this size are almost all M+S rated. A loaded minivan is heavy and its nose is heavier still, so the front tires wear fast; check them before the first snow, because the law and the physics both care about the 3/16 inch left, not the tire's age.

None of our picks in this size, the General AltiMAX RT45, carries the 3PMSF symbol; for that, look at the all-weather and winter tires.

  • Honda Odyssey (2005-2010, LX/EX)
  • Chevrolet Equinox (2005-2009)
  • Pontiac Torrent (2006-2009)

Other years and wheel packages of the same models came on 225/65R17, 225/60R18 or 235/60R18 instead, so read the placard inside the driver's door before you order.

Which type of 235/65R16 tire?

Frequently asked questions

How much do 235/65R16 tires cost?

Expect $85–$106 per tire for a budget brand, $106–$133 for a mid-range tire like the General AltiMAX RT45, and $133–$189 for a premium tire like the Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus. A set of four therefore starts at about $340. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.

What vehicles use 235/65R16 tires?

235/65R16 is original equipment on Honda Odyssey (2005-2010, LX/EX), Chevrolet Equinox (2005-2009) and Pontiac Torrent (2006-2009), 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 235/65R16 tire?

For most drivers our mid-range pick, the General AltiMAX RT45, 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 Bridgestone Ecopia EP422 Plus is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Kelly Edge Touring Plus is a sound choice.

Can I replace just one or two 235/65R16 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.
