About the 225/55R17 size
Tall 17 in size for large sedans and wagons, H/V rated. Outback owners buy a lot of these; touring and all-weather lines are strong.
The numbers mean: 225 mm section width, sidewall height 55 % of that width, and a 17-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 26.7 inches. Any replacement has to match all three, and the load index and speed rating on your door sticker must be met or exceeded. Our guide on reading a tire size walks through it.

Frequently asked questions

Expect $79–$103 per tire for a budget brand, $103–$164 for a mid-range tire like the General AltiMAX RT45, and $164–$219 for a premium tire like the Goodyear Assurance Fuel Max. A set of four therefore starts at about $316. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use 225/55R17 tires?
225/55R17 is original equipment on Chevrolet Impala (2006-2013, LT/LTZ), Subaru Legacy (2015-2019, 2.5i Premium), Mazda6 (2014-2021, Sport), Lincoln MKZ (2007-2012) and Mini Countryman (2017-2024, base 17 in), 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 225/55R17 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 Goodyear Assurance Fuel Max is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Atturo AZ600 is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two 225/55R17 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.
