What Mini approves

MINI uses BMW's star marking, since MINI is a BMW brand.

A starred tire is approved for that MINI. Run-flats are common from the factory on MINI, so check whether the tire you are replacing says RSC or ZP before you order a standard one.

Brands that carry the approval

Pirelli Continental Goodyear Hankook

Written on the sidewall as: Pirelli Cinturato P7 (★).

Every US car built since 2003 carries this placard. It also gives the pressures, which the sidewall does not: the number molded into the tire is the maximum it can hold, not what your car wants.

What those tires cost

Mini Cooper tires: common questions

What size tires does a Mini Cooper take?

The most common original size is 195/55R16. Other model years and trims use different sizes, so check the list on this page and confirm against the sticker inside your driver's door.

Can I fit a different size on my Mini Cooper?

You can, within limits: the overall diameter should stay within about 3 percent of the original, and the load index and speed rating must meet or exceed the door placard. Anything further changes your speedometer reading and can rub at full lock.

Where is the tire size on a Mini Cooper?

Open the driver's door and look at the white and yellow placard on the door jamb or the B-pillar. The same size is also molded into the sidewall of the tires currently on the car, unless someone changed them.

The 2024 Mini Cooper came from the factory on 195/55R16. Wheel packages can change that within the same model year, so check the placard inside the door jamb before you order.

What size tires does a 2023 Mini Cooper take?

The 2023 Mini Cooper came from the factory on 195/55R16. Wheel packages can change that within the same model year, so check the placard inside the door jamb before you order.
