2002 Vehicle Tire Fitment Guide

235/65R17 is used on 2002 crossover and SUV applications including the Acura MDX, BMW X5, Isuzu Axiom, and Jeep Grand Cherokee. The size combines a relatively tall sidewall with a 17-inch wheel, which suits heavier vehicles that need a comfortable ride and useful load support without moving into a more aggressive light-truck flotation size. Since these vehicles differ in weight, suspension tuning, and intended use, buyers should confirm the exact model and wheel package before choosing. This size sits in a family of SUV-oriented fitments where wheel diameter and overall tire section can change noticeably by trim.

Rim Diameter: 19 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

This low-profile 19-inch radial size is associated with the 2002 Aston Martin DB7 and represents the kind of specialized fitment seen on premium grand touring and performance cars of the period. It uses a very short sidewall relative to width, so wheel accuracy, offset, and condition matter more than on taller touring sizes. Available choices include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2, all blackwall products. Where listed, rim-width guidance is in the 8.0 to 9.5-inch range, emphasizing that this is not a general-use size but a precise performance application.

245/40R18 is shared by premium and performance 2002 cars such as the Aston Martin DB7, BMW M5, Lexus SC430, Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG, Mercedes-Benz SL500, and Mercedes-Benz SL600. It is a modern low-profile radial that suits larger-diameter wheels while preserving enough sidewall for road use on high-speed touring and sport applications. Available products range from BFGoodrich g-Force street-oriented tires and Nitto NT555 G2 to an M&H Radial Drag Rear, showing that not every product in this size serves the same purpose. Listed rim-width compatibility generally falls around 8.0 to 9.5 inches, with some products specifying an 8.5-inch wheel.

Used on the 2002 Aston Martin DB7, 265/30R19 is a specialized ultra-low-profile radial that reflects a high-performance rear fitment strategy. The very short sidewall height makes wheel condition, alignment, and proper pairing with the corresponding front size especially important. This is not a broadly shared sedan or SUV size within the 2002 range, so buyers should treat it as a vehicle-specific performance application rather than a universal 19-inch option. Because staggered fitments can vary by axle, confirming both front and rear sizes before ordering is especially important for DB7 owners.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

265/35R18 appears on the 2002 Aston Martin DB7, Maserati Spyder, and Porsche Boxster, placing it firmly in the high-performance sports and grand touring category. This wide, low-profile radial is typically used where handling response and rear-end grip take priority over a taller touring sidewall. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2, all in blackwall form. Listed rim-width support centers around 9.0 to 10.5 inches, so confirming wheel width is an important step before installation, especially on cars that may have changed wheels over time.

Rim Diameter: 19 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RWL, Redline

This 19-inch radial size is used on the 2002 Aston Martin Vanquish and represents a large-diameter, low-profile fitment typical of premium performance coupes from the era. Its wide section width and short sidewall make it sensitive to wheel fit and overall setup, particularly if the vehicle has been modified or the wheels are not original to the car. Product choices include blackwall BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2. Where stated, rim-width compatibility runs from about 8.5 to 10.0 inches, with some versions carrying load capacities up to 1,764 pounds.

285/40R19 is paired with the 2002 Aston Martin Vanquish as a wide performance fitment, typically functioning as the larger rear member of a staggered combination. Compared with more common passenger-car sizes, it carries a much broader contact patch and a more specialized role in balancing traction, appearance, and wheel fill. Current product choices include blackwall BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, Nitto NT555 G2, and a Pro-Trac Street Pro III with RWL styling. Because products in this size differ in character, Vanquish owners should match the intended use of the tire to the car’s road-going setup.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Redline

205/65R15 is a mainstream touring radial size for 2002 midsize sedans and coupes such as the Audi A4, Audi A4 Quattro, Chrysler Sebring, Dodge Stratus, Honda Accord, Saturn L300, Saturn LW300, Toyota Avalon, Toyota Camry, and Toyota Solara. It combines a comfortable sidewall height with a common 15-inch wheel package, making it a practical fitment for everyday driving and stock-style ride quality. Available products include BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial options with either a 2-inch whitewall or a redline. With listed rim-width compatibility from 5.50 to 7.50 inches and a 1,400-pound load rating on both products, it also suits appearance-conscious replacements.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Redline, Wide Whitewall

Found on 2002 models such as the Audi A4, Audi A4 Quattro, Audi A6, Audi A6 Quattro, Mazda Millenia, Mercedes-Benz E320, Nissan Maxima, Saab 9-5, Volkswagen Passat, Volvo S60, Volvo S80, and Volvo V70, 215/55R16 is a well-traveled premium sedan and wagon size. It is a radial fitment that sits between softer touring dimensions and shorter sport-oriented profiles. Product choices include a BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2 blackwall along with American Classic Radials offered in redline and 1.50-inch whitewall versions. That mix is useful for owners choosing between understated modern appearance and a more distinctive sidewall presentation.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

235/45R17 is used on a wide mix of 2002 European sedans and grand touring cars including Audi A4, Audi A6, Avanti II, BMW 525i, BMW 530i, BMW 540i, Lexus GS430, Mercedes-Benz E320, Mercedes-Benz E430, Volvo S60, and Volvo V70. This radial size blends substantial tread width with a relatively short 17-inch sidewall, making it suitable for both sharper handling and higher-speed touring. Available blackwall products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, and Nitto NT555 G2. Listed rim-width compatibility generally ranges from 7.5 to 9.0 inches, which is worth confirming on any wheel-swapped car.

This size is tied to the 2002 Audi A6 and Audi A6 Quattro, making it a narrower application within the year’s overall fitment range. As a radial 16-inch size, 235/50R16 combines a fairly wide section width with a moderate sidewall, fitting the role of an upper-end sedan tire rather than a compact or truck fitment. Because only a small number of vehicles in this model year use it, careful confirmation of the exact wheel package matters. On vehicles like the A6 family, trim and drivetrain can influence tire sizing, so buyers should not assume that all 2002 Audi sedans share this specification.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Wide Whitewall, Redline

225/55R17 appears on a broad cross-section of 2002 premium sedans and wagons, including the Audi A8 Quattro, Audi Allroad Quattro, Chrysler 300M, Chrysler Concorde, Dodge Intrepid, Infiniti Q45, Land Rover Freelander, Lexus LS430, and several Mercedes-Benz luxury models. It is a radial size with enough sidewall for comfort while still filling a 17-inch wheel appropriately. Product options are varied, including BFGoodrich g-Force blackwalls, a BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A, and a BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial with a 1.50-inch whitewall. That gives this size unusual flexibility for owners seeking either a straightforward blackwall or a more distinctive collector-style presentation.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Raised-Yellow-Letter, Redline, Pin-White-Stripe, Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall

One of the most broadly shared 2002 touring sizes, 225/60R16 covers a long list of sedans, minivans, and wagons from Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Dodge, Ford, Honda, Jaguar, Lexus, Lincoln, Mercedes-Benz, Mercury, Nissan, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Subaru, and Volkswagen. It is a versatile radial fitment that favors comfort, road manners, and a substantial sidewall on 16-inch wheels. Product selection is especially diverse here, with blackwall, redline, pin white stripe, wide whitewall, and even raised-yellow-letter options available across Goodyear and BFGoodrich lines. That makes this size especially appealing for shoppers balancing fitment with a preferred sidewall style.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

245/45R18 is used on premium and performance 2002 models including the Audi A8 Quattro, Audi S8, BMW Z8, Chrysler 300M, Infiniti Q45, Jaguar XK8, Jaguar XKR, and multiple Mercedes-Benz luxury cars. This radial 18-inch size offers a broad footprint and a moderate low-profile sidewall, making it suitable for higher-speed grand touring and sport-luxury use. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2, all blackwall tires. Listed rim-width compatibility typically spans 7.5 to 9.0 inches, and some versions carry load capacities up to 1,764 pounds.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RWL, Redline

225/45R17 is one of the most common sport-oriented 2002 passenger-car sizes, used across Audi, BMW, Chrysler, Jaguar, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, Saab, Volkswagen, and Volvo models. It appears on cars ranging from the Audi TT and BMW 3 Series to the Jaguar X-Type and Volkswagen Golf, showing how widely this size was adopted for compact luxury and performance applications. Product offerings include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2, all in blackwall form. Rim-width guidance typically centers around 7.0 to 8.5 inches, reinforcing the need to match tire and wheel dimensions carefully.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

This low-profile 18-inch radial size appears on the 2002 Audi TT Quattro, Ferrari 360, Porsche 911, Porsche Boxster, and Volkswagen Golf. Within the 2002 fitment mix, 225/40R18 is clearly associated with sport-focused cars and upgraded wheel packages rather than everyday sedans. Available blackwall product lines include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2. Listed rim-width compatibility generally runs from 7.5 to 9.0 inches, and some products include load capacities in the 1,235- to 1,389-pound range. This is a size where wheel width and front-to-rear pairing deserve close attention.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Redline, RWL

255/50R17 is associated with the 2002 Avanti II, giving it a distinctive place among this year’s fitments. The size combines a fairly wide section with a taller sidewall than many performance 17-inch options, making it visually substantial without dropping to an ultra-low profile. Product choices include a Nitto NT555 G2 blackwall and Pro-Trac Street Pro III versions with redline and RWL sidewall treatments. With rim-width guidance listed at 7.0 to 9.0 inches on the Nitto product and a stated load capacity up to 1,819 pounds there, this size offers both performance-style and appearance-driven replacement possibilities.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Wide Whitewall

205/50R17 is used on 2002 BMW 325xi, BMW 330Ci, BMW 330i, BMW 330xi, Porsche 911, and Porsche Boxster models. Although the same size appears across both BMW and Porsche applications, it belongs to performance-oriented compact and sports-car fitment patterns rather than general family-car use. Product choices include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and an American Classic Radial with a 0.875-inch whitewall. Listed rim-width ranges generally cover 5.5 to 7.5 inches, so this size offers an interesting mix of conventional blackwall performance tires and a specialty whitewall option for select styling goals.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

245/40R17 appears on a concentrated group of 2002 sport and performance models, including the BMW 330Ci, BMW 330i, BMW Z3, Mercedes-Benz C32 AMG, Mercedes-Benz CLK430, Mercedes-Benz CLK55 AMG, Mercedes-Benz SLK230, Mercedes-Benz SLK32 AMG, and Mercedes-Benz SLK320. This is a wide, low-profile radial often used as the rear component of a staggered setup or on a higher-output trim. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, and g-Force Phenom T/A, all blackwalls. Listed rim-width support generally spans 8.0 to 9.5 inches, though one product lists a narrower range, so product-level specifications matter.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL, Redline

This 18-inch radial size is used on the 2002 BMW 745Li and BMW 745i, where it serves as part of a larger-wheel luxury sedan fitment. Compared with shorter-profile sport sizes, 245/50R18 carries more sidewall height while still filling a substantial wheel opening, making it well suited to a premium touring role. Available products are Pro-Trac Street Pro III tires offered in RWL and redline sidewall styles. Because the size appears in a luxury sedan application and may be paired with larger rear sizes on some setups, it is wise to confirm axle-specific sizing before purchase.

Rim Diameter: 19 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

245/45R19 is associated with the 2002 BMW 745Li and BMW 745i as part of the early-2000s move toward larger-diameter premium sedan wheels. It is a radial size that combines a broad section width with a relatively restrained sidewall for a 19-inch application. Product options include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2, all blackwall designs. Listed rim-width compatibility generally falls between 7.5 and 9.0 inches, and some products list capacities up to 1,874 pounds. For large luxury sedans, correct load capability and front-to-rear size confirmation are as important as nominal size matching.

Rim Diameter: 19 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

Used on the 2002 BMW 745Li and BMW 745i, 275/40R19 is the wider companion size in a premium staggered-sedan fitment. It provides noticeably more tread width than the corresponding front tire sizes in these applications and is tailored to larger rear wheel packages. Product choices include BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2, all blackwall radials. Depending on product, listed rim-width compatibility ranges from about 9.0 to 11.0 inches, with stated load capacities reaching 2,039 pounds on some versions, underscoring the need to match both wheel width and vehicle demands.

Rim Diameter: 19 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

225/40R19 is specific to the 2002 BMW M3 in this fitment group and reflects a dedicated low-profile performance application. With a short sidewall and 19-inch wheel diameter, this size places a premium on accurate wheel width, alignment, and proper front-to-rear pairing. Current offerings include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S and BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A blackwall tires. Listed rim-width compatibility runs from 7.5 to 9.0 inches, and one product shows a load capacity of 1,433 pounds. For an M3 or any similarly tuned car, this size should be selected with attention to the car’s exact wheel package rather than model year alone.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

This size appears on the 2002 BMW M3 and represents a focused front-axle style performance fitment within the year’s larger-wheel sport category. It uses a low profile on an 18-inch wheel, a combination that supports quick steering response and a clean wheel-to-fender appearance. Available blackwall options include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2. Listed rim-width compatibility generally falls in the 7.0 to 8.5-inch range, and some products note load capacities around 1,521 pounds. As with many M3 setups, it should be evaluated as part of the complete front-and-rear combination.

Rim Diameter: 19 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

255/35R19 is used on the 2002 BMW M3 as a wide, very low-profile 19-inch performance fitment. Within the 2002 tire landscape, this is a specialized size intended for aggressive wheel packages and a more modern sports-car stance. Product options include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, and g-Force Phenom T/A, all blackwall tires. Where listed, rim-width compatibility is 8.5 to 10.0 inches, and some versions carry load capacities in the mid-1,500-pound range. This size is best approached as part of a staggered setup where preserving the intended front-to-rear relationship matters.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

255/40R18 appears on the 2002 BMW M3, Ferrari 550 Maranello, Ferrari 575 M Maranello, Jaguar XJ8, and Jaguar XJR. That mix shows how the same size can serve both sport-luxury and high-performance grand touring roles. Current products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, and g-Force Phenom T/A in blackwall form. Listed rim-width compatibility generally runs from 8.5 to 10.0 inches, and some products show load capacities up to 1,709 pounds. Because these cars differ greatly in weight distribution and axle sizing, the shared nominal size does not mean the same complete fitment strategy applies to every model.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

This wide 18-inch radial size is used on the 2002 BMW M5, Dodge Viper, Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG, Mercedes-Benz SL500, and Mercedes-Benz SL600. It sits firmly in the rear-performance category, with a short sidewall and significant section width suited to powerful cars. Product selection includes BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2, all blackwall options. Listed rim-width ranges commonly span 9.0 to 11.0 inches, and some products carry load capacities near 1,709 pounds. This is a size where wheel width, intended use, and staggered pairing all deserve careful attention.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

225/50R16 appears on a varied group of 2002 vehicles including the BMW Z3, Honda S2000, Mercedes-Benz C240, Mercedes-Benz C320, Mercedes-Benz SLK230, Mercedes-Benz SLK320, Oldsmobile Alero, Pontiac Grand Am, Porsche Boxster, and Volvo C70. It is a sporty 16-inch radial that works across both roadsters and compact sport sedans. Product options include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, and Michelin Pilot Sport, all blackwall tires. Listed rim-width compatibility generally runs from 6.0 to 8.0 inches. This size is a good example of how one dimension can bridge mainstream sporty cars and more specialized European applications.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Redline, RWL

275/40R18 is used on the 2002 BMW Z8, Chevrolet Corvette, Ferrari 360, and a number of Mercedes-Benz CL- and S-Class performance and luxury models. It is a broad 18-inch radial size with a bit more sidewall than 35-series alternatives, making it suitable for powerful rear-drive and high-speed touring applications. Product choices include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, Nitto NT555 G2, BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A, and a Pro-Trac Street Pro III redline. That mix gives shoppers both blackwall performance options and a specialty sidewall treatment, but exact vehicle configuration still determines whether it works as a front or rear application.

This 18-inch radial SUV size appears on the 2002 BMW X5, Land Rover Discovery, and Land Rover Range Rover. It combines a substantial tread width with enough sidewall to suit heavier utility vehicles that still use large-diameter wheels. In this year’s fitment spread, 255/55R18 belongs more to premium SUV touring than to light-truck flotation sizing. Because the represented vehicles differ in weight, drivetrain layout, and wheel design, owners should confirm the exact wheel package before selecting a replacement. The size also sits within a broader family of premium SUV dimensions where a small size change can materially affect clearance and stance.

255/50R19 is tied to the 2002 BMW X5 and reflects the move toward larger-diameter premium SUV fitments. Compared with a low-profile sports-car 19-inch tire, this size carries more sidewall and a taller overall form suited to utility-vehicle load and ride demands. In the 2002 fitment mix it is specific rather than widely shared, so exact trim and wheel package should be confirmed before ordering. When a vehicle like the X5 is available with several 17-, 18-, 19-, and 20-inch combinations, the safest approach is to verify the current wheel diameter and whether the SUV uses a staggered arrangement.

Used on the 2002 BMW X5, 285/45R19 is a wide SUV tire size often associated with a more aggressive rear or performance-oriented utility fitment. It is substantially broader than standard touring SUV sizes, which makes wheel width and fender clearance more important. Because the X5 also appears with several other wheel diameters for the same model year, this is a trim-sensitive fitment rather than a universal BMW X5 size. Buyers should verify whether the vehicle retains its correct 19-inch wheels and whether the front axle uses a different companion size before selecting a tire in this category.

Rim Diameter: 20 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Redline, RWL

275/40R20 appears on the 2002 BMW X5 as part of the year’s large-diameter performance SUV fitments. It combines a wide tread with a relatively short sidewall for a utility vehicle, making it far more specialized than mainstream truck or crossover sizes. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Comp-2 A/S, Nitto NT555 G2, and an M&H Radial Drag Rear, all blackwall designs. Listed rim-width compatibility spans roughly 9.0 to 11.0 inches depending on product. Owners should take extra care to confirm whether the vehicle uses a matched or staggered 20-inch arrangement before choosing from this size group.

Rim Diameter: 20 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

This extremely wide 20-inch radial size is associated with the 2002 BMW X5 and represents one of the most specialized SUV fitments in the year’s catalog. A 315 section width is well beyond ordinary truck and crossover replacements, so proper wheel width, offset, and body clearance are critical. The available product listed is the Nitto NT555 G2 in blackwall form, with a stated 20-inch fitment and substantial overall width. Because this type of size is often used on the rear axle in a staggered package, buyers should verify axle placement and current wheel specifications before treating it as a direct replacement.

255/45R19 appears on the 2002 Bentley Arnage, placing it in the large-diameter luxury touring category. Its width and 19-inch wheel diameter suit a substantial premium sedan, but it still retains more sidewall than some more aggressive sports-car 19-inch sizes. Product availability includes a blackwall BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2, though the fitment itself remains fairly specialized within the broader 2002 vehicle range. With a large luxury car application like the Arnage, correct wheel diameter and load capability should be reviewed carefully, especially if the car has seen aftermarket wheel changes or is being returned to a more stock-oriented setup.

Used on the 2002 Bentley Arnage, Bentley Azure, Bentley Continental, Rolls-Royce Park Ward, and Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph, 255/50R18 is a shared premium luxury size with a clear grand touring focus. It offers a broad section width and enough sidewall to preserve ride quality on substantial vehicles. Available product coverage includes this size in blackwall radial form and makes it relevant to owners balancing drivability with proper upscale appearance. Because these cars are heavier and often very sensitive to wheel and suspension condition, shoppers should pay attention to the exact model and wheel package rather than assuming all 18-inch luxury applications interchange.

255/55R17 bridges very different 2002 applications, appearing on the Bentley Azure, Bentley Continental, Dodge Dakota, and Rolls-Royce Corniche. That unusual spread shows how the same nominal size can serve luxury touring cars and selected truck applications, even though the complete vehicle context is quite different. Product availability includes this size within the broader year mix, but fitment should always be interpreted through the specific make and model. On a Dakota, load and utility use may be the focus; on Bentley and Rolls-Royce models, ride quality and luxury character are more central considerations.

This wide 18-inch radial size is used on the 2002 Bentley Azure and Bentley Continental. It sits in the upper end of the touring-performance luxury category, giving these large cars a broad footprint and a substantial visual presence without moving into ultra-low-profile sizing. The application is narrow and model-specific within 2002, so wheel confirmation is important before ordering. Since luxury vehicles of this class can be sensitive to tire dimensions and load behavior, owners should confirm not just the nominal size but the complete wheel setup and whether the car remains in its intended road-going configuration.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall, Blackwall, Wide Whitewall

205/70R15 appears across a practical mix of 2002 vehicles including the Buick Century, Honda CR-V, Pontiac Grand Prix, Subaru Forester, and Toyota Sienna. It is a traditional touring radial with a relatively generous sidewall on a 15-inch wheel, which suits comfort-oriented sedans, compact utility vehicles, and minivans. Product selection is varied, with blackwall offerings from Michelin and Avon alongside narrow and wide whitewall choices from Maxxis and American Classic. Listed rim-width suitability generally falls around 5.0 to 7.5 inches depending on product, making this a flexible size for drivers who want either standard blackwalls or a more distinctive appearance.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL, Wide Whitewall, Blackwall, Pin-White-Stripe, Narrow Whitewall, Redline

This is a heavily shared 2002 minivan and family-vehicle size, used on Buick LeSabre, Buick Regal, Chevrolet Venture, Chevrolet Tracker, Chrysler Town & Country, Chrysler Voyager, Dodge Caravan, Dodge Grand Caravan, Ford Windstar, Kia Sedona, Mercury Villager, Oldsmobile Silhouette, and Pontiac Montana. As a radial 15-inch touring size, it emphasizes ride comfort and load-carrying versatility. Available products include blackwall, RWL, and wide whitewall choices from Cooper, BFGoodrich, Dunlop, and Avon. That spread gives owners a useful range of visual and driving character options while keeping within a size shared by many practical 2002 applications.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL, Wide Whitewall

215/70R16 appears on 2002 crossover and utility models including the Buick Rendezvous, Mazda Tribute, Pontiac Aztek, Saturn Vue, and Toyota RAV4. It is a radial size that provides a bit more sidewall than lower-profile passenger-car tires while still fitting a 16-inch wheel common to early crossover designs. Product choices are unusually broad in style, ranging from a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 with RWL sidewall to wide whitewall radials from Coker Classic and American Classic. That means this size can support both more utility-minded replacements and appearance-focused selections, depending on the vehicle’s use and presentation goals.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Goldline, Wide Whitewall, Redline

Used on the 2002 Cadillac DeVille, Cadillac Seville, Ford Crown Victoria, Oldsmobile Aurora, Pontiac Bonneville, and Pontiac Aztek, 235/55R17 serves both full-size sedans and selected crossover-style applications. It is a radial size with a broad contact patch and moderate sidewall, fitting vehicles that sit between traditional 16-inch touring packages and more overtly sporty 17-inch low-profile setups. Products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S and g-Force Phenom T/A blackwalls, plus American Classic Radials in goldline and 1.75-inch whitewall versions. That mix is especially useful for owners who want either understated performance styling or a more distinctive sidewall treatment.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Narrow Whitewall, Wide Whitewall, Blackwall, Redline, Goldline

235/60R16 is shared by the 2002 Cadillac Eldorado, Cadillac Seville, Chevrolet Blazer, Lincoln Town Car, Suzuki Grand Vitara, Suzuki XL-7, and Toyota RAV4. That broad mix includes sedans, SUVs, and compact utility vehicles, so the same size can occupy different roles depending on the vehicle. Product options include blackwall Michelin Primacy 3 and American Classic Radials in narrow whitewall, wide whitewall, and redline versions. Listed rim-width compatibility generally runs from about 6.0 to 8.5 inches. This size is a good reminder that tire selection should match not only the numeric size but also the vehicle’s character and intended use.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

One of the key 2002 truck and SUV sizes, 265/70R17 appears on the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Avalanche 1500, Chevrolet Tahoe, Dodge Ram 1500, Ford Expedition, selected Ford F-150 trims, GMC Sierra 1500, GMC Yukon, and GMC Yukon XL 1500. It is a radial utility size with substantial overall height and width, suited to full-size trucks and SUVs. Available products are BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 versions with RWL sidewalls and different load ratings, including a 112S and a heavier 121S specification. That distinction matters for owners choosing between standard and heavier-duty service requirements.

235/55R16 appears on the 2002 Chevrolet Camaro, Chevrolet S10, Pontiac Firebird, and Toyota Tacoma. Within this group it serves both sporty passenger-car applications and selected compact truck configurations, showing how a single size can cross categories. As a 16-inch radial, it offers a fairly wide footprint with a moderate sidewall. Available product coverage exists for this size in the 2002 lineup, but buyers should consider whether they are replacing tires on a performance coupe or a truck package before focusing on style or tread family. Vehicle use and wheel setup matter more here than the size alone might suggest.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

Used on the 2002 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird, 245/50R16 is a focused performance-oriented F-body fitment. It is wider than many standard 16-inch sedan sizes and carries a sidewall height that still suits a classic muscle-era stance translated into a modern radial format. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S and g-Force Sport Comp-2, both blackwall tires with listed rim-width compatibility from 7.0 to 8.5 inches. This size is particularly relevant for owners trying to preserve the look and road feel of a stock-style wheel package while still choosing from contemporary radial performance options.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RWL, Redline

275/40R17 is shared by the 2002 Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird, where it represents the wider end of a performance-oriented fitment strategy. This low-profile radial size gives these cars a broad rear-tire look and is often associated with more aggressive wheel packages or axle-specific applications. Product selection includes BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, Nitto NT555 G2, and an M&H Radial Drag Rear, all blackwalls. Listed rim-width compatibility generally ranges from 9.0 to 11.0 inches depending on product, so matching the tire to the actual wheel width is especially important.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

195/70R14 is used on the 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier, Honda Accord, and Pontiac Sunfire. It is a straightforward compact-to-midsize passenger-car radial with a relatively tall sidewall compared with later sport-oriented sizes, making it well suited to a comfort-oriented 14-inch wheel package. The available product is a Dunlop Sport Classic blackwall with a stated load capacity of 1,356 pounds. For owners maintaining a stock-style 14-inch setup, this size remains a practical option that preserves the taller-profile look and road manners typical of many base-model early-2000s cars.

A very common 2002 passenger-car size, 195/65R15 appears on the Chevrolet Cavalier, Chrysler PT Cruiser, Honda Accord, Infiniti G20, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Mitsubishi Galant, Pontiac Sunfire, Saturn L100, Saturn L200, Saturn LW200, Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Jetta, Volkswagen Passat, Volvo S60, and Volvo V70. This radial format became a mainstream standard for compact and midsize cars because it combines a usable sidewall with a 15-inch wheel. Product availability includes this size in several touring and sporty replacement categories within the year’s lineup, making it a practical fitment for drivers prioritizing balanced everyday road use.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RWL, Redline

245/45R17 is used on the 2002 Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Mercedes-Benz SL500, and Mercedes-Benz SL600. It spans American performance and European grand touring applications, showing how the same size can work in different vehicle personalities. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, Nitto NT555 G2, and an M&H Radial Drag Rear, all blackwall designs. Listed rim-width compatibility generally sits between 7.5 and 9.0 inches, with some drag-focused fitments specifying an 8-inch wheel. This size works best when selected with the vehicle’s exact role in mind, not just the dimensions on the sidewall.

This size is associated specifically with the 2002 Chevrolet Corvette and serves as a dedicated performance fitment within the year’s tire landscape. With a wide section and short sidewall on a 17-inch wheel, 265/40R17 supports the Corvette’s sports-car handling goals and should be treated as a precise application rather than a general-use size. Available product coverage exists in the broader 2002 product set for neighboring performance categories, but the key consideration here is maintaining the intended axle pairing and wheel specifications. Corvette owners should confirm the full front-and-rear combination before replacing only one end of the car.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Redline, RWL

295/35R18 appears on the 2002 Chevrolet Corvette, Ferrari 550 Maranello, and Ferrari 575 M Maranello. That places it firmly in the high-performance rear-tire category. This is a very wide radial size with a low profile, intended for powerful sports and grand touring cars where traction and stance are major fitment considerations. Available products are Pro-Trac Street Pro III tires in redline and RWL sidewall treatments. Because this size is often part of a staggered setup, it should never be selected without confirming the matching front size, wheel width, and the car’s current configuration.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, RWL, Redline, Blackwall

215/60R15 is used on the 2002 Chevrolet Malibu, Oldsmobile Alero, and Pontiac Grand Am. It is a practical midsize-car radial size that blends a modestly sporty stance with enough sidewall for comfortable everyday driving. Product offerings are unusually varied for this size, including American Classic Radials in wide whitewall and redline form, a BFGoodrich Radial T/A with RWL sidewall, and a Dunlop Sport Classic blackwall. That mix gives owners a choice between straightforward blackwall replacements, muscle-era style cues, or period-inspired sidewall treatments while staying within a size shared by several GM midsize models.

This compact radial size is used on the 2002 Chevrolet Prizm, Kia Rio, Mitsubishi Mirage, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Echo, and Toyota Prius. 175/65R14 belongs to the smaller end of the year’s passenger-car fitment range and is typical of efficient compact sedans and hatchbacks. The size favors light steering feel, economical packaging, and a relatively modest footprint. Product coverage is limited compared with larger mainstream sizes, which makes exact size confirmation important before beginning a search. Owners of these vehicles should also confirm that the car still uses the original 14-inch wheel setup, as smaller cars are often changed to alternate wheel packages over time.

185/65R14 is one of the more broadly used compact-car sizes for 2002, appearing on the Chevrolet Prizm, Daewoo Nubira, Dodge Neon, Ford Escort, Ford Focus, Kia Spectra, Mitsubishi Lancer, Mitsubishi Mirage, Nissan Sentra, Saturn SC1, Saturn SL, Saturn SL1, Suzuki Aerio, and Toyota Corolla. It is a conventional radial passenger-car size with a slightly fuller footprint than many 175-series compact options. Product availability for the year includes multiple replacement paths in nearby compact and touring categories, but the main advantage here is how commonly the size was shared across economy and commuter-focused models.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: RBL, Narrow Whitewall, Wide Whitewall

This size spans 2002 vans, compact trucks, and SUVs including the Chevrolet Astro, Chevrolet Tracker, Chevrolet Express 1500, Dodge Dakota, Ford Ranger, GMC Safari, GMC Savana 1500, and Jeep Wrangler. As a radial 15-inch utility size, 215/75R15 delivers a taller sidewall and useful load support compared with low-profile passenger-car dimensions. Available products include BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 with an RBL sidewall, plus classic-style narrow and wide whitewall options from Coker Classic, BFGoodrich, and Tornel. That makes this a notable crossover size where buyers can choose between utility-focused tread and more traditional appearance-oriented options.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

265/70R16 is one of the workhorse full-size truck and SUV sizes for 2002, used across Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford, GMC, Mitsubishi, Nissan, and Toyota truck lines. It appears on vehicles such as the Chevrolet Tahoe, Dodge Durango, Ford F-150, GMC Yukon, Nissan Xterra, Toyota 4Runner, Toyota Sequoia, Toyota Tacoma, and Toyota Tundra. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in LT265/70R16/E form with RWL sidewall styling and a 3,195-pound maximum load rating. That points this size toward truck-oriented, heavier-duty use rather than a purely passenger-style replacement.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

One of the most widely shared truck sizes in the 2002 lineup, 245/75R16 appears on heavy-use pickups, SUVs, vans, and some compact truck applications from Chevrolet, Dodge, Ford, GMC, and Mazda. It covers vehicles ranging from Silverado and Sierra models to Ford Econoline vans and Ranger pickups. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in LT245/75R16/E specification with RWL sidewalls, sized for 16-inch rims and a 6.5 to 8.0-inch rim-width range. With a listed 3,042-pound load capacity, this is clearly a truck-focused fitment where load needs matter as much as nominal size.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL, Blackwall, Redline, Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall

235/70R15 is used on the 2002 Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet S10, GMC Jimmy, and GMC Sonoma. It is a compact truck and SUV radial size that also supports some period-style appearance choices for owners preserving a stock visual stance. Product selection includes Cooper Cobra Radial G/T with RWL sidewall, BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial in redline, and blackwall touring-performance choices from Avon and Michelin. Listed rim-width compatibility generally falls between 6.0 and 8.5 inches depending on product. This blend of truck fitment and specialty sidewall options makes it useful for both utility-minded and style-conscious builds.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL, Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall

This is a broad-use 2002 truck, van, and SUV size seen on models such as the Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet S10, Chevrolet Express 1500, Dodge Dakota, Dodge Durango, Ford Ranger, Ford E-150 Econoline, GMC Jimmy, GMC Sonoma, GMC Savana 1500, Mazda B-Series trucks, and Mitsubishi Montero Sport. As a radial utility size, 235/75R15 supports a tall sidewall and substantial load-carrying capability. Available products include BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 plus wide and narrow whitewall options from American Classic, Maxxis, and Coker Classic. This range suits everything from practical truck use to more restoration-oriented or period-flavored appearance goals.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

31X10.50R15 appears on the 2002 Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet S10, Ford Ranger, GMC Jimmy, and GMC Sonoma. Unlike metric passenger sizes, this flotation-style radial format is common on trucks and off-road-oriented applications, with the overall section and diameter emphasized in the size designation. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 with RWL sidewall styling, sized for 15-inch wheels and listed for 7.0 to 9.0-inch rim widths. This size is especially important to verify on modified trucks, since lift kits, wheel changes, and altered steering stops can all affect real-world clearance.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Goldline, Narrow Whitewall, Redline

205/75R15 is used on a mix of compact trucks and utility vehicles including the 2002 Chevrolet S10, Chevrolet Tracker, GMC Sonoma, Jeep Wrangler, Kia Sportage, and Toyota Tacoma. It is a radial size with a comparatively tall sidewall on a 15-inch wheel, well suited to practical light-truck service and a traditional truck stance. Available products include BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial whitewall and goldline versions, Tornel narrow whitewall, and American Classic narrow whitewall offerings. This is a useful size for owners who need truck-compatible dimensions but prefer a more classic or distinctive sidewall appearance than a plain blackwall.

This size is associated with the 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500, where it serves as a full-size pickup radial fitment between lighter passenger-type sizes and more aggressive heavy-duty truck dimensions. 235/75R16 offers a tall sidewall and useful utility proportions on a 16-inch wheel. Product availability exists for this size within the year’s truck-focused range, and selection should be made with attention to wheel width, axle ratings, and how the truck is actually used. On pickups that may have been lifted, lowered, or re-wheeled, the nominal size alone is not enough to guarantee the same fitment result.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

255/70R16 appears on the 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ford Expedition, Ford Explorer, Ford Explorer Sport Trac, Ford F-150 XL, Ford F-150 XLT, GMC Sierra 1500, and Mitsubishi Montero Sport. It is a versatile truck and SUV radial size that sits between common 245-series and 265-series options in both width and stance. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 with RWL sidewalls, a 16-inch fitment, and a listed 3,085-pound load capacity. That makes this size especially relevant for drivers who want a truck-capable replacement rather than a purely highway-touring oriented tire.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

Used on the 2002 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Dodge Ram 2500, Ford Excursion, Ford F-350 Super Duty, and GMC Sierra 1500, 265/75R16 sits squarely in the heavy truck and full-size SUV category. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in LT265/75R16/E form with RWL sidewalls and a listed maximum load capacity of 3,415 pounds. That specification signals a tire suited to more demanding load and service requirements. For 2002 pickups and large SUVs, this is a size where load range and intended use matter just as much as diameter and width when selecting a replacement.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

225/75R16 is shared by a diverse set of 2002 trucks and vans, including the Chevrolet Silverado 3500, Chevrolet Express 2500, Dodge Ram vans, Ford E-Series vans, Freightliner Sprinter 2500, GMC Sierra 3500, GMC Savana 2500, Honda Passport, Isuzu Rodeo, and Jeep Grand Cherokee. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in LT225/75R16/E specification with RWL sidewalls and a listed 2,680-pound load capacity. That makes this a practical utility size with a stronger truck-and-van emphasis than a passenger-car touring role. Exact vehicle weight and duty cycle should guide the final choice.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall

This size is tied to the 2002 Chevrolet Tracker and stands out as a taller-profile 15-inch radial for a compact utility application. Compared with lower-profile passenger-car dimensions, 195/75R15 provides more sidewall height and a more traditional utility-vehicle look. Product choices include Coker Classic Star Series and American Classic Radials in both narrow and wide whitewall styles. Several products list load capacities around 1,444 to 1,477 pounds and rim-width compatibility in the 5.0 to 7.0-inch range. For Tracker owners, this size offers an unusual combination of compact SUV fitment and classic sidewall styling.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

245/70R16 is a widely shared 2002 SUV and light-truck size appearing on the Chevrolet Trailblazer, Ford Explorer, Honda Passport, Infiniti QX4, Isuzu Rodeo, Isuzu Rodeo Sport, Isuzu Trooper, Jeep Grand Cherokee, Mercury Mountaineer, Toyota Sequoia, and Toyota Tundra. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in LT245/70R16/D form with RWL sidewalls, a 6.5 to 7.0-inch rim-width range, and a listed 2,535-pound load capacity. That gives this size a distinctly truck-capable orientation. It is especially appropriate for buyers who need utility-focused durability rather than a softer passenger-style crossover tire.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

This size appears on the 2002 Chevrolet Trailblazer, Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT, GMC Envoy, GMC Envoy XL, Infiniti QX4, Nissan Pathfinder, and Oldsmobile Bravada. It is a 17-inch radial SUV size that bridges comfort-oriented utility vehicles and more truck-like midsize SUVs. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in LT245/65R17/D form with RWL sidewall styling and a listed 2,405-pound load capacity. While many of these vehicles were originally used as daily drivers, this product emphasis shows that replacement choices in the size can lean toward more rugged utility capability.

Rim Diameter: 20 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

295/40R20 is specific to the 2002 Chrysler Prowler and reflects a dramatic rear-tire fitment that is central to that vehicle’s styling and stance. It is a wide, low-profile 20-inch radial and should be approached as a specialized application rather than a general passenger-car size. The available product is a Nitto NT555 G2 blackwall. Because a fitment like this is visually dominant and often paired with a much narrower front tire, owners should verify the full front-to-rear setup, wheel width, and current chassis configuration before replacement, especially on cars that may have been stored or modified.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RBL, Redline, Wide Whitewall

215/65R16 serves a broad group of 2002 minivans, wagons, and compact SUVs including the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, Dodge Grand Caravan, Ford Windstar, Land Rover Freelander, Nissan Quest, Suzuki Vitara, and Volvo V70. It is a radial size that blends useful sidewall height with a 16-inch wheel, making it suitable for family and utility use. Product options range from a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 with RBL sidewall to BFGoodrich Silvertown Radials in redline and 2.25-inch whitewall versions. That gives this size both practical utility and distinctive style possibilities, depending on the vehicle and owner preference.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

Used on the 2002 Daewoo Lanos, Hyundai Accent, and Suzuki Esteem, 185/60R14 is a compact-car radial size with a slightly sportier profile than taller 70-series small-car tires. It remains firmly in the economy and commuter category, but the shorter sidewall gives it a more modern look on 14-inch wheels. The available product is a Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2 blackwall with a listed rim-width range of 5.0 to 6.0 inches. For owners maintaining smaller-wheel compact cars from this period, this size supports an authentic overall scale without moving to oversized wheel conversions.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Wide Whitewall, RWL

205/60R15 appears on the 2002 Daewoo Leganza, Hyundai Sonata, Kia Optima, Mazda 626, Mercury Cougar, and Subaru Legacy. It is a mainstream radial size for compact and midsize cars that balances tread width, sidewall height, and 15-inch wheel compatibility. Product choices include Michelin Primacy 3 in blackwall form, American Classic and Coker Classic wide whitewall radials, and a BFGoodrich Radial T/A with RWL sidewall. That broad range makes this size useful for owners who want anything from a conventional touring replacement to a more distinctive sidewall treatment that changes the car’s visual character.

This size is shared by the 2002 Dodge Neon and Ford Escort. 185/60R15 is a small passenger-car radial with a lower sidewall than many 14-inch compact sizes, giving these applications a slightly more responsive, less tall-profile look. Product coverage is limited within the 2002 selection, which makes exact size verification especially helpful before shopping. On compact cars that may have changed trim-level wheels over time, confirming both the wheel diameter and the installed size avoids confusing this fitment with similar 14- or 16-inch alternatives used on related models or option packages.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall

195/50R16 is used on the 2002 Dodge Neon, Mazda Protege, and Mazda Protege5. This compact sport-oriented radial uses a short sidewall on a 16-inch wheel, making it a clear step away from taller basic commuter fitments. The available product listed is a BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial with a 2-inch whitewall, which gives this otherwise sporty size an unexpectedly vintage-flavored sidewall option. That combination may appeal to certain custom or appearance-focused builds, but owners should still confirm the vehicle’s wheel width and overall setup because smaller cars can be sensitive to even modest changes in sidewall and section width.

This extremely wide 18-inch radial size is shared by the 2002 Dodge Viper and Lamborghini Murcielago. It is one of the most specialized rear-performance sizes in the 2002 fitment range, intended for high-output exotic and supercar applications. The very broad section width and short sidewall make wheel width, offset, suspension condition, and rear-clearance accuracy essential. Because this size is closely tied to staggered setups and high-performance chassis tuning, it should never be treated as a casual replacement dimension. Buyers should verify the exact wheel and axle position before ordering, especially if the car has seen aftermarket changes.

215/60R17 appears on the 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan and Mazda MPV. It is a less common 17-inch radial size in this model year, used on practical family vehicles rather than sports cars. That makes it somewhat distinctive: it carries a fairly generous sidewall despite the larger wheel diameter. Available product coverage exists for the size within the 2002 lineup, but the key fitment point is that it belongs to select minivan applications, not a broad swath of passenger cars. Wheel diameter confirmation is important because closely related trims often used 15- or 16-inch alternatives instead.

This size is shared by the 2002 Dodge Dakota, Dodge Durango, Land Rover Discovery, Nissan Frontier, and Nissan Pathfinder. 255/65R16 is a radial truck and SUV size that combines useful width with a moderate sidewall on a 16-inch wheel. It sits between lighter crossover-type proportions and more aggressive tall-profile truck dimensions. Product coverage is represented within the broader 2002 truck size range, but buyers should consider the vehicle category carefully. A Dakota or Frontier may be used for utility work, while a Discovery or Pathfinder may place more emphasis on ride quality and original wheel-package compatibility.

275/60R17 appears on the 2002 Dodge Durango, Ford Expedition, Ford F-150 King Ranch, Ford F-150 Lariat, and Lincoln Navigator. It is a full-size truck and SUV radial size with a broad footprint and enough sidewall to suit heavier vehicles and larger wheel packages. The fitment is clearly utility-oriented, but it also carries a visual presence that suits premium truck trims. Product coverage exists for this size within the year’s truck and SUV lineup, and buyers should pay close attention to wheel width and vehicle use. On larger SUVs and pickups, trim level often determines whether this size or a neighboring 16-, 18-, or 20-inch setup applies.

This size is associated with the 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 and represents one of the larger factory-style truck wheel packages of the year. 275/55R20 combines a wide tread with a shorter sidewall than traditional 16- and 17-inch pickup fitments, giving the truck a more modern appearance. Product coverage exists in the 2002 lineup for 20-inch truck and performance sizes, but this remains a specific application rather than a broadly shared light-truck standard. On a Ram 1500, confirming the current wheel diameter matters, since the same model year also includes more conventional truck sizes on other trims.

275/70R17 is tied specifically to the 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 and sits on the taller, more utility-focused end of the full-size pickup spectrum. Compared with lower-profile 20-inch options, this radial size favors sidewall height and a more traditional truck stance. It belongs to an application where wheel diameter, ride height, and load needs can vary significantly by trim and use. Because the Ram 1500 also appears with several other sizes for the same model year, buyers should verify the installed wheel and whether the truck remains stock, especially if it has been lifted, leveled, or fitted with aftermarket wheels.

This large 20-inch truck size appears on the 2002 Dodge Ram 1500. It reflects a more style-forward full-size pickup fitment, combining substantial width with a shorter sidewall than traditional work-oriented 16- and 17-inch combinations. In the 2002 fitment landscape, it is a trim-specific option rather than a general Ram size. Product coverage exists within the broader year’s 20-inch selection, but owners should confirm wheel diameter, offset, and axle fitment before ordering. Trucks that have seen suspension or wheel changes can look correct with this size while still having fitment differences that matter once the tire is installed.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

245/70R17 is associated with the 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 and represents a more conventional 17-inch pickup fitment than the model’s larger 20-inch alternatives. As a radial truck size, it offers a useful balance of sidewall height, width, and utility presence. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in LT245/70R17/E form with RWL sidewall styling and a stated maximum load capacity of 3,000 pounds. That makes it particularly relevant for owners who want a truck-oriented replacement that emphasizes capability and load support rather than a lower-profile custom appearance.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

Used on the 2002 Dodge Ram 3500, Ford F-250 Super Duty, and Ford F-350 Super Duty, 235/85R16 is a classic heavy-duty truck radial size. Its tall profile and LT-style specification place it well outside ordinary passenger-car fitment, and the available product reinforces that role: a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in LT235/85R16/E with RWL sidewalls and a 3,042-pound load capacity. This is a true work-oriented size where load range, inflation practices, and intended vehicle use are central considerations. Buyers should match the tire not only to the size on the truck but also to the truck’s service demands.

225/35R19 is used on the 2002 Ferrari 360, where it functions as part of a dedicated high-performance wheel and tire package. This is an ultra-low-profile radial size, and in a Ferrari application the precision of the front-to-rear pairing is critical to the car’s intended balance. Within the year’s fitment range, it is a highly specialized dimension rather than a common shared performance size. Buyers should verify wheel width, axle placement, and the full staggered setup before replacement, especially on cars that may have sat for long periods or received wheel changes during their ownership history.

Rim Diameter: 19 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RWL, Redline

This size is tied to the 2002 Ferrari 360 and serves as a wide 19-inch rear-performance fitment. It offers a large contact patch and relatively short sidewall, placing it among the more specialized exotic-car sizes of the year. Product availability includes BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, multiple BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2 listings, and a Pro-Trac Street Pro III with RWL sidewall. Listed rim-width suitability generally starts around 9.5 inches and extends to 11.0 inches depending on product. As with most Ferrari applications, preserving the correct staggered relationship matters more than choosing by size in isolation.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

215/45R18 is associated with the 2002 Ferrari 360 and is one of the narrower low-profile 18-inch performance sizes in the year’s fitment mix. It belongs to a highly specific sports-car setup where wheel diameter, tread width, and sidewall height are all tightly integrated. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S and BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A blackwall tires, with listed rim-width compatibility from 7.0 to 8.0 inches. On a Ferrari 360, this is not a casual interchange size. Front-to-rear pairing, wheel width, and maintaining the intended overall setup should all be checked before installation.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

This size is used on the 2002 Ferrari 360 and appears as a dedicated high-performance radial fitment. With a wide section and low 40-series sidewall on an 18-inch wheel, it sits in the heart of the year’s sports-car sizing spectrum. The available product is a BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A blackwall with a listed maximum load capacity of 1,819 pounds and rim-width compatibility from 9.0 to 10.5 inches. Because this is an application-specific size for an exotic car, buyers should confirm axle position and the companion size on the opposite end of the vehicle before purchasing a set.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Redline, RWL

255/45R17 appears on the 2002 Ferrari 456 M GT, Ferrari 456 M GTA, and Panoz Esperante. It is a broad 17-inch radial size that fits grand touring and specialty sports-car applications rather than everyday sedans. Product options include BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2 and Nitto NT555 G2 blackwalls, plus Pro-Trac Street Pro III versions with redline and RWL sidewalls. Listed rim-width compatibility generally falls in the 8.0 to 9.5-inch range, depending on product. This size gives owners a choice between straightforward blackwall performance replacements and sidewall treatments that can alter the visual tone of the car.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

This size is used on the 2002 Ferrari 456 M GT and Ferrari 456 M GTA, where it serves as a wide rear-oriented grand touring fitment. 285/40R17 carries a substantial footprint but retains a little more sidewall than some 18- and 19-inch exotic sizes, making it well suited to a fast touring character. The available product is a Nitto NT555 G2 blackwall with a stated rim-width range of 9.5 to 11.0 inches and a load capacity of 1,984 pounds. On cars like the 456, selecting the correct rear tire depends on preserving the proper front-to-rear relationship, not just matching the sidewall number.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

205/50R16 is shared by the 2002 Ford Focus, Infiniti G20, and Toyota Celica. It is a compact sport-oriented radial with a lower profile than more comfort-focused 15-inch alternatives, making it common on trims that emphasized handling or a more contemporary look. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2 and g-Force Comp-2 A/S, both blackwall designs. Listed rim-width compatibility runs from 5.5 to 7.5 inches, and one product notes a maximum load capacity of 1,201 pounds. For compact cars using this size, maintaining the intended wheel diameter is an important first step before shopping by tread style.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, RWL, Redline, Blackwall

A common 2002 compact and small midsize size, 195/60R15 appears on the Ford Focus, Honda Civic, Hyundai Elantra, Infiniti G20, Mitsubishi Lancer, Nissan Sentra, Saturn SC2, Subaru Impreza, Toyota Celica, Volvo S40, and Volvo V40. It is a practical radial dimension that offers a modestly sporty profile without abandoning everyday ride comfort. Product choices include Michelin Primacy 3 and BFGoodrich Radial T/A blackwalls, plus BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial options with wide whitewall and redline styling. That gives this otherwise straightforward size a wider range of visual personality than many compact-car fitments typically receive.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

215/45R17 appears on the 2002 Ford Focus, Lexus IS300, Nissan Sentra, and Saab 9-3, placing it in the compact sport and entry luxury category. It is a low-profile radial size used where a sharper steering feel and 17-inch wheel presentation are part of the package. Product options include BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Comp-2 A/S, and g-Force Phenom T/A, all in blackwall form. Listed rim-width compatibility generally falls between 7.0 and 8.0 inches. This size is best treated as a trim-sensitive fitment, since many of the same model lines also used taller-profile alternatives on smaller wheels.

215/60R16 serves a broad group of 2002 midsize sedans, wagons, and minivans including the Ford Taurus, Lexus ES300, Lexus GS300, Lincoln LS, Mazda MPV, Mercury Sable, Mitsubishi Diamante, Subaru Forester, and Toyota Camry. It is a balanced radial size with enough sidewall for comfort and enough width for stable road manners on a 16-inch wheel. Available product coverage exists in both touring and appearance-oriented categories within the year’s lineup. Because it is used across several different vehicle types, buyers should pay attention to the exact vehicle role, wheel diameter, and overall stance they want to preserve.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

This size appears on the 2002 Ford Thunderbird, Jaguar S-Type, Jaguar Vanden Plas, and Lincoln LS. It is a premium touring and sporty luxury radial with a broad section width and a moderate 17-inch profile. The available product is a BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S blackwall, with listed rim-width compatibility from 6.5 to 8.5 inches. The size suits cars that blend comfort with a firmer road feel, and it is especially relevant to owners who want to maintain a stock-style larger wheel package without moving to a more aggressive ultra-low-profile alternative.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL, Blackwall, Narrow Whitewall, Wide Whitewall, Pin-White-Stripe, Redline

225/70R15 appears on the 2002 Ford Escape, Ford Ranger, Freightliner Sprinter 2500, Mazda B2300, Mazda B3000, and Nissan Frontier. This is a taller-profile 15-inch radial that crosses compact pickups, utility vehicles, and commercial van use. Product selection includes Goodyear Polysteel RWL versions, Cooper Cobra Radial G/T, and Michelin XWX blackwall, creating a mix of truck-like, classic touring, and specialty styling choices. Rim-width guidance varies by product, generally from about 6.0 to 8.0 inches. Because the represented vehicles differ considerably, buyers should match the tire’s character to the vehicle’s actual purpose.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL, Wide Whitewall

235/70R16 is used on the 2002 Ford Escape, Ford Explorer, Ford Explorer Sport Trac, Ford F-150 XL, Ford F-150 XLT, Jeep Liberty, and Mazda Tribute. It sits in the mainstream SUV and light-truck category, offering a useful blend of sidewall height, width, and 16-inch wheel compatibility. Product choices include a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 with RWL sidewall, plus wide whitewall radials from American Classic and Coker Classic. That range lets owners decide whether they want a more truck-capable replacement or a more traditional visual treatment, provided the chosen tire still suits the vehicle’s actual use.

This size is tied to the 2002 Ford F-150 Harley-Davidson Edition and represents one of the more specialized factory-style sport-truck fitments of the year. 275/45R20 uses a wide tread and short sidewall on a 20-inch wheel, making it more appearance- and performance-driven than typical work-truck sizes. Product availability exists in the broader 2002 20-inch performance and truck range, but this fitment is best viewed as trim-specific. Owners should confirm the truck still uses the correct 20-inch wheel package before ordering, especially since other 2002 F-150 trims use very different 16- and 17-inch dimensions.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

295/45R18 is associated with the 2002 Ford F-150 Lightning and reflects a focused high-performance truck fitment. It is considerably wider than ordinary pickup sizes and carries a lower profile on an 18-inch wheel, giving the Lightning its distinctive stance. The available product is a Nitto NT555 G2 blackwall with a listed rim-width range of 9.5 to 11.0 inches and a maximum load capacity of 2,469 pounds. This is not a generic F-150 size. Buyers should verify wheel width, axle position, and whether the truck remains in its intended sport-truck configuration before selecting a replacement.

This size is specific to the 2002 Ford F-350 Super Duty and belongs to the heavy-duty truck category. 215/85R16 is a tall, relatively narrow radial size often chosen where load support and commercial-style proportions matter more than appearance or handling sharpness. Product coverage exists within the broader truck selection for 2002, and the key fitment point is that this size should be matched to the truck’s actual wheel and load requirements rather than treated like a general pickup replacement. On a Super Duty application, tire choice should reflect the truck’s service role as much as the sidewall size.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

195/70R15 is used on the 2002 Freightliner Sprinter 3500 and stands out as a narrow, commercial-oriented van fitment within the year’s otherwise passenger-car-heavy 15-inch range. The available product is a Michelin XWX blackwall radial. While the size may look modest compared with heavier LT truck dimensions, in this application it belongs to a working van context where wheel specification and vehicle purpose matter greatly. Buyers should confirm the exact Sprinter model and wheel setup, since commercial vans often have unique fitment needs that are not interchangeable with ordinary passenger-car 15-inch tires.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall

This size appears on the 2002 Honda Civic and represents a basic compact-car 14-inch radial fitment with a relatively generous sidewall. Product selection is more varied than many small sizes, including BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial with a 2.25-inch whitewall, Avon CR6ZZ, Dunlop Sport Classic, and Michelin XAS blackwall options. Listed rim-width compatibility generally ranges from 4.5 to 6.5 inches depending on product. That gives Civic owners a choice between conventional blackwall tires and a more pronounced whitewall look, which can be useful for custom presentation or for owners who want a more distinctive period-style appearance.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Redline

185/65R15 is shared by the 2002 Honda Civic and Saturn SL2. It is a compact-car radial size that offers a little more wheel diameter and a slightly lower profile than many 14-inch economy fitments while still preserving comfortable road manners. Available products include BFGoodrich Silvertown Radials in 1.75-inch whitewall and redline forms. With listed rim-width compatibility from 5.00 to 6.50 inches and a maximum load capacity of 1,168 pounds, this size is a good choice for owners who want a stock-scale tire but prefer a distinctive sidewall treatment over a plain modern blackwall.

This size is specific to the 2002 Honda Insight and sits among the smallest radial fitments in the 2002 model-year range. Its narrow section and compact overall proportions suit a very specialized small-car application, so it should be treated as a precise fitment rather than an interchangeable compact-car size. Product availability for this exact dimension is limited within the year’s selection, which makes careful size confirmation especially important. On a vehicle like the Insight, changing wheel or tire dimensions can have a noticeable effect on gearing feel, ride, and overall presentation, so the original size deserves close attention.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

37X12.50R17 is used on the 2002 Hummer H1 and is one of the most extreme utility fitments in the entire 2002 lineup. This flotation-style radial size signals a very large overall tire designed for a heavy-duty off-road-oriented vehicle. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 with RWL sidewalls, listed for 17-inch wheels and an 8.5 to 11.0-inch rim-width range, with a maximum load capacity of 3,525 pounds. This is a specialized application where wheel width, vehicle clearance, and suspension condition are all critical. It should never be selected without confirming the exact H1 configuration.

Rim Diameter: 13 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

175/70R13 appears on the 2002 Hyundai Accent and Suzuki Esteem. It is one of the smallest passenger-car radial sizes in the 2002 fitment range and is typical of economy-focused compact cars with modest 13-inch wheels. The available product is an Avon CR6ZZ blackwall with a listed rim-width range of 4.5 to 6.0 inches. For owners preserving an original-size small-wheel setup, this size maintains the correct scale and sidewall proportions better than upsized replacements. Because these cars were often modified with alternate wheels, verifying that the vehicle still uses the correct 13-inch package is especially helpful.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

This size is used on the 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe, Jeep Wrangler, Lexus RX300, Lincoln Town Car, and Toyota Highlander, making it one of the more unusual cross-category fitments of the year. 225/70R16 combines a tall sidewall with a 16-inch wheel, and the available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 with RWL sidewall styling and a listed 1,875-pound load capacity. Because the represented vehicles include both SUVs and a full-size sedan, the same size can mean very different things in practice. Vehicle type and intended use should guide the product choice, not the size alone.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

215/55R17 appears on the 2002 Infiniti I35, Nissan Altima, and Nissan Maxima. It is a radial midsize-sedan size with a moderate profile on a 17-inch wheel, fitting the more upscale trims of everyday passenger cars. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S and BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A, both blackwall tires. Listed rim-width compatibility is generally 6.0 to 7.5 inches, and one product shows a load capacity of 1,653 pounds. This size is a strong example of early-2000s sedan fitment moving toward larger wheels without fully abandoning the ride comfort expected of mainstream four-door cars.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

Used on the 2002 Infiniti I35, Nissan Maxima, and Volvo S80, 225/50R17 is a premium sedan radial size with a slightly sportier stance than taller 55- and 60-series alternatives. Product offerings include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, and Nitto NT555 G2, all blackwall tires. Listed rim-width compatibility generally falls between 6.0 and 8.0 inches, with some products carrying load capacities up to 1,653 pounds. This size suits owners who want to preserve a factory-style 17-inch premium sedan look while choosing from several contemporary performance-oriented replacement lines.

This size is specific to the 2002 Isuzu Rodeo and places that vehicle in a less common 18-inch SUV fitment category for the year. 245/60R18 provides a substantial sidewall relative to many sports-car 18-inch sizes, so it remains utility-oriented despite the larger wheel diameter. Product coverage exists for this size within the wider 2002 tire range, but because it is not broadly shared, exact wheel confirmation is important. On SUVs where trim levels and special editions can change wheel diameter, checking the current setup helps avoid confusion with nearby 16- and 17-inch Rodeo fitments.

245/50R17 is associated with the 2002 Jaguar XK8 and serves as a refined grand touring radial size. It offers a broad footprint and a little more sidewall than lower-profile sports-car 17-inch sizes, which suits the XK8’s blend of performance and comfort. Product availability exists in the wider 2002 performance catalog, and fitment should be considered as part of the car’s complete wheel and axle package. On a grand touring Jaguar, preserving the intended balance between front and rear sizing, ride quality, and visual proportion matters more than simply choosing a tire with the correct first three numbers.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RWL, Redline

This size is used on the 2002 Jaguar XK8 and Jaguar XKR and fits squarely in the grand touring performance category. Product choices include BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Comp-2 A/S, Nitto NT555 G2, and a Pro-Trac Street Pro III with RWL sidewall styling. Listed rim-width compatibility generally spans 8.0 to 9.5 inches, and some products carry load capacities up to 1,929 pounds. For XK-series applications, 255/45R18 offers a broad, visually substantial fitment that still retains enough sidewall for road-going touring use rather than an ultra-harsh low-profile look.

Rim Diameter: 20 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RWL, Redline

255/35R20 appears on the 2002 Jaguar XKR and represents a large-diameter, low-profile performance fitment. It sits among the more specialized 20-inch passenger-car sizes in the year’s range, with a short sidewall that makes wheel accuracy and suspension condition particularly important. Product choices include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2, all blackwall options. Listed rim-width compatibility typically runs from 8.5 to 10.0 inches. This is a size best selected with close attention to the car’s exact wheel package and intended grand touring versus performance use.

Rim Diameter: 20 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RWL, Redline

Used on the 2002 Jaguar XKR, 285/30R20 is the wider partner in a dramatic 20-inch performance setup. It combines a broad tread with an extremely short sidewall, putting it in the upper end of this year’s specialized rear-performance fitments. Available products include a Nitto NT555 G2 blackwall and Pro-Trac Street Pro III versions in RWL and redline styles. This gives XKR owners a choice between a conventional performance look and more distinctive sidewall treatments. Because it is a highly specialized size, buyers should verify axle placement, wheel width, and the companion front size before ordering.

This size is specific to the 2002 Jeep Liberty and occupies a practical compact-SUV radial category. Compared with lower-profile crossover sizes, 215/75R16 gives the Liberty a taller sidewall and a more traditional utility stance. Product coverage for the size exists within the broader 2002 SUV and truck range, and buyers should consider how the vehicle is actually used before selecting a replacement. On SUVs like the Liberty, wheel changes, lift kits, or all-terrain-oriented modifications are common, so confirming the current wheel diameter and overall clearance remains a smart step even when the sidewall size appears straightforward.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Narrow Whitewall

225/75R15 is used on the 2002 Jeep Wrangler, Toyota 4Runner, and Toyota Tacoma. It is a classic utility-oriented radial size with a relatively tall sidewall, suited to trucks and SUVs where ride compliance and sidewall presence matter. Product choices include BFGoodrich, Coker Classic, and American Classic options in wide and narrow whitewall styles. Several products list rim-width compatibility from roughly 6.0 to 8.0 inches and load capacities up to 2,094 pounds. This size is appealing for owners who want truck-capable dimensions but also want period-looking or restoration-friendly whitewall choices not usually associated with utility vehicles.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

This flotation-style radial size is associated with the 2002 Jeep Wrangler and is a traditional off-road and utility format rather than a metric passenger size. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 with RWL sidewall styling, a listed 6.5 to 8.5-inch rim-width range, and a 1,990-pound load capacity. On a Wrangler, this type of sizing is especially sensitive to wheel width, suspension height, steering lock, and fender clearance. It is a good example of why truck and SUV owners should confirm the vehicle’s actual configuration before assuming the printed size tells the whole fitment story.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

245/35R18 is used on the 2002 Lamborghini Murcielago and represents a very specialized low-profile 18-inch performance fitment. The available product is a BFGoodrich g-Force Phenom T/A blackwall with a listed maximum load capacity of 1,389 pounds and rim-width compatibility from 8.0 to 9.5 inches. This size belongs to a tightly defined exotic-car setup where tire width, sidewall height, and front-to-rear stagger all work together. Because even small deviations can affect appearance and road behavior, Murcielago owners should verify axle placement, wheel dimensions, and the matching rear size before purchasing a replacement.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: RWL

This size is shared by the 2002 Lexus LX470 and Toyota Land Cruiser, fitting two large SUV applications that demand substantial tire capacity and a traditional utility stance. The available product is a BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in LT275/70R16/D form with RWL sidewalls, a listed 7.0 to 8.5-inch rim-width range, and a maximum load capacity of 3,000 pounds. That positions this size as a capable truck-SUV replacement rather than a softer crossover-style option. For large SUVs that may see towing, cargo, or mixed-surface use, load capability should remain part of the fitment conversation.

275/55R18 is specific to the 2002 Lincoln Blackwood and reflects a premium truck fitment that blends full-size utility proportions with an upscale 18-inch wheel package. It is a wide radial size with enough sidewall to preserve truck presence while avoiding the look of a taller heavy-duty commercial tire. Product coverage exists within the broader 2002 truck and SUV range, but because this is a single-application fitment here, owners should confirm the truck’s current wheel package before shopping. A size this specific is best approached as part of the Blackwood’s complete wheel and trim identity.

This size is tied to the 2002 Lincoln Navigator and belongs to the full-size SUV category. 255/75R17 carries a tall sidewall and a substantial overall tire form, emphasizing load support and utility proportions more than a low-profile luxury appearance. Product coverage exists within the year’s broader truck selection, but exact fitment should be confirmed because the Navigator also appears with other size strategies in neighboring years and trims. On large SUVs, preserving the intended overall diameter and load capability is important not only for appearance but also for ride height, gearing feel, and general road manners.

235/40R17 is associated with the 2002 Lotus Esprit and represents a specialized sports-car radial fitment. It uses a short sidewall on a 17-inch wheel, placing it squarely in the low-profile performance category. Because the Esprit is a dedicated sports car with a narrow fitment window, wheel width, alignment, and front-to-rear balance matter more than on a generic sedan application. Product coverage exists in the broader 2002 performance range, but this size should be selected carefully and as part of the vehicle’s full tire set strategy rather than as an isolated replacement based only on wheel diameter.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

This wide 18-inch radial size is used on the 2002 Lotus Esprit. The available product is a Nitto NT555 G2 blackwall with a listed maximum load capacity of 1,819 pounds and rim-width guidance from 9.5 to 11.0 inches. Within the 2002 fitment range, 285/35R18 belongs to the specialized rear-performance category, where preserving the intended stagger and wheel relationship is essential. On a car like the Esprit, buyers should confirm axle placement, wheel width, and current suspension setup before replacing only one tire size, since the vehicle’s handling character depends heavily on maintaining the intended combination.

Rim Diameter: 18 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

235/40R18 appears on the 2002 Maserati Spyder and Porsche 911, putting it in the high-performance sports and grand touring category. Product choices include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, g-Force Phenom T/A, and Nitto NT555 G2, all blackwall radials. Listed rim-width compatibility generally spans 8.0 to 9.5 inches, and some products note load capacities around 1,521 pounds. This size is a good fitment example for vehicles that need sharp response and large-wheel presence without moving all the way to extremely short 30-series sidewalls. Exact axle use should still be confirmed on each model.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

195/50R15 is used on the 2002 Mazda Miata and provides a compact, low-profile radial fitment that suits a lightweight roadster. Product offerings include BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2 and Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2, both blackwall tires. Listed rim-width compatibility generally falls between 5.5 and 7.0 inches, and the size preserves the nimble, smaller-scale character expected from a Miata rather than moving to a larger, heavier wheel package. On roadsters like this, the exact size can have a noticeable effect on steering feel and overall appearance, so it is worth confirming the installed wheel setup before replacement.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, RBL

This size is associated with the 2002 Mazda Miata and belongs to the compact sports-car category. 205/45R16 is a low-profile radial that gives a slightly larger-wheel, sharper-handling character than the Miata’s 15-inch alternative. Available products include BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2 and g-Force Comp-2 A/S, with one listing using an RBL sidewall rather than a conventional blackwall label. Listed rim-width compatibility runs from 6.5 to 7.5 inches. Because the Miata is especially sensitive to tire and wheel changes, buyers should confirm both wheel width and current suspension condition before making a selection.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

195/55R15 appears on the 2002 Mazda Protege, Suzuki Aerio, and Suzuki Esteem. It is a compact-car radial with a slightly sportier profile than taller 60- and 65-series small-car sizes. Product choices include BFGoodrich g-Force Sport Comp-2 and Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2, both blackwall tires. Listed rim-width compatibility generally falls between 5.5 and 7.0 inches, making it a straightforward fitment for compact sedans and hatchbacks that use 15-inch sport-oriented wheel packages. For shoppers comparing several similar small-car sizes, this one usually signals a trim level with a firmer, more responsive overall setup.

This size is specific to the 2002 Mercedes-Benz G500 and fits squarely in the premium SUV category. 265/60R18 provides a substantial sidewall and a broad footprint on an 18-inch wheel, balancing utility stance with upscale wheel diameter. Product coverage exists for this size within the year’s truck and SUV range, but because it is a single-application fitment here, careful vehicle confirmation is important. The G500’s tire selection should also take into account whether the vehicle remains stock or has been altered for off-road or cosmetic purposes, since wheel and suspension changes can materially affect fitment.

255/60R17 is shared by the 2002 Mercedes-Benz ML320 and Oldsmobile Bravada. That pairing puts it in the midsize SUV category, with enough sidewall to support comfortable road use while still providing a substantial 17-inch wheel presence. Product coverage is represented in the broader 2002 truck and SUV range, and the main fitment point is that even when the same size appears on two utility vehicles, the wheel package and intended use can still differ. Buyers should confirm the exact model, trim, and current wheel setup before treating this as a direct one-size-fits-all SUV replacement.

This size is used on the 2002 Mercedes-Benz ML320 and Mercedes-Benz ML500. It is a broad 17-inch SUV radial that gives these models a stronger footprint than more modest midsize utility sizes. Product coverage exists within the year’s truck and SUV range, and buyers should pay attention to whether the vehicle is replacing a standard touring-style setup or a more premium wheel package. Because the same model family can use different tire dimensions by trim, confirming the installed wheel width and the exact factory-style package is an important step before choosing a replacement.

285/50R18 is tied specifically to the 2002 Mercedes-Benz ML55 AMG and reflects a high-performance SUV fitment for its time. It carries more width than conventional midsize SUV tires while still retaining enough sidewall for road-going use on an 18-inch wheel. Product coverage exists in the broader 2002 lineup, but this is not a general-purpose utility size. On an AMG-branded application, preserving the intended wheel-and-tire balance matters, so owners should verify the exact wheel package, axle arrangement, and any aftermarket changes before selecting a tire purely by size.

This size is associated with the 2002 Mercury Cougar and falls into the sporty midsize coupe category. 215/50R16 offers a slightly lower profile than many 15-inch touring alternatives while avoiding the larger-wheel commitment of 17-inch packages. The available product is a Pro-Trac Street Pro III listed in this size family with redline and RWL sidewall choices, giving Cougar owners a chance to emphasize style as much as function. As with many coupes from this era, confirming the trim-level wheel package is important because nearby sizes were often offered on the same model depending on equipment.

175/65R15 is used on the 2002 Mini Cooper and represents a compact modern small-car radial fitment. Compared with many older 13- and 14-inch compact sizes, this dimension maintains a relatively small overall footprint while stepping up to a 15-inch wheel. Product coverage exists within the broader 2002 compact tire range, and the size is best approached as part of the Mini’s exact trim and wheel package. Since the Cooper also appears with 16- and 17-inch alternatives, buyers should confirm the installed wheel diameter before ordering to avoid mixing up the car’s distinct stock fitment options.

This size is shared by the 2002 Mini Cooper and Nissan Sentra. It is a compact sport-oriented radial that gives small cars a modern 16-inch look with a relatively short sidewall. Product coverage exists for this dimension within the year’s compact and sporty offerings, and fitment should be confirmed by trim because both the Mini Cooper and Sentra were available with smaller or larger alternatives. As with many compact-car sizes in this range, the goal is usually to maintain handling feel and overall proportion rather than simply choosing the widest tire that will mount on the wheel.

Rim Diameter: 17 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

205/45R17 is associated with the 2002 Mini Cooper and represents the more aggressive wheel package available within that model’s fitment range. Product options include BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S, g-Force Sport Comp-2, and g-Force Phenom T/A, all blackwall performance-style radials. Listed rim-width compatibility generally runs from 6.5 to 7.5 inches, and some products carry load capacities around 1,235 pounds. On a small car like the Mini, this low-profile 17-inch size can noticeably influence ride and steering character, so it is best selected with attention to wheel width and whether the car still uses its original wheel package.

This size is specific to the 2002 Nissan Altima and serves as a midsize-sedan radial fitment with a relatively generous sidewall on a 16-inch wheel. It sits between basic 15-inch touring sizes and more upscale 17-inch alternatives, making it a practical choice for comfort-oriented trims. Product coverage exists within the broader 2002 touring range, and the key fitment point is that not all Altima models from this year used the same tire size. Buyers should confirm trim level and wheel diameter before ordering, especially since the Altima also appears with 215/55R17 in the same model year.

265/55R17 is tied to the 2002 Nissan Frontier and represents one of the truck’s wider 17-inch fitments. It is a radial utility size with a shorter sidewall than more traditional 15- and 16-inch pickup dimensions, giving a more modern appearance while preserving truck-capable width. Product coverage exists in the broader truck-oriented portion of the 2002 range, but this remains a relatively specific trim-level fitment. On a Frontier, wheel confirmation is especially important because the same model year also includes several other size combinations spanning 15-, 16-, and 17-inch wheel packages.

This size is used on the 2002 Nissan Frontier, Nissan Xterra, and Toyota Sequoia. It is a broad 17-inch radial truck and SUV fitment that balances full-size stance with enough sidewall for utility use. Product coverage exists within the wider truck portion of the 2002 catalog, and buyers should consider how the vehicle is used before selecting a replacement. On a Frontier or Xterra, the size may support a more rugged package, while on a Sequoia it can serve a larger family SUV role. Vehicle type and wheel package should guide the final choice.

265/70R15 appears on the 2002 Nissan Frontier and Nissan Xterra. It is a traditional truck-SUV radial size with a tall sidewall and broad footprint on a 15-inch wheel. Compared with 16- and 17-inch alternatives, it preserves a more classic utility-truck appearance and can be especially relevant on vehicles that still retain their original smaller-diameter wheel packages. Product coverage exists in the broader year’s truck range, but owners should verify wheel diameter carefully, since the Frontier and Xterra were both offered with multiple size combinations that can look similar at a glance.

This size is specific to the 2002 Porsche 911 and sits among the most specialized rear-performance fitments in the year’s range. 285/30R18 combines a very wide tread with an extremely short sidewall, making it highly dependent on correct wheel width, alignment, and front-to-rear pairing. Product coverage exists in the broader performance catalog for adjacent high-performance sizes, but the critical point here is precision. On a 911, rear tire sizing is central to the car’s overall balance, so buyers should verify the exact wheel package and companion front size before selecting a replacement.

315/30R18 is another highly specialized 2002 Porsche 911 fitment and represents an especially wide rear-performance size. It is far beyond ordinary passenger-car proportions and should be treated as a trim- and axle-specific application. Because such a wide tire places heavy demands on wheel width, clearance, and suspension geometry, correct vehicle configuration matters as much as the sidewall marking itself. In a 911 application, this size should only be selected after confirming the exact model, wheel package, and corresponding front fitment, particularly if the car has undergone any wheel, brake, or suspension changes.

Used on the 2002 Porsche 911, 295/30R18 is a dedicated rear-performance size with a very short sidewall and a broad contact patch. It belongs to the narrow group of staggered sports-car fitments where preserving the complete front-to-rear relationship is essential. Within the 2002 range, this is not a broadly shared 18-inch option but a specialized performance dimension. Buyers should confirm the exact 911 variant, wheel width, and axle use before purchase. On a rear-engine sports car, a seemingly small change in width or profile can significantly alter appearance, clearance, and overall balance.

Rim Diameter: 16 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall, Narrow Whitewall

235/65R16 is shared by the 2002 Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph and Saturn Vue, an unusual pairing that spans luxury sedan and compact SUV categories. Product offerings include Avon Turbospeed blackwall and narrow whitewall versions, both with a stated maximum load capacity of 1,929 pounds. This size has enough sidewall to suit comfort-focused driving while still providing a substantial footprint. Because the same dimensions appear on very different vehicles, product selection should reflect the vehicle’s role. A Silver Seraph owner may prioritize sidewall appearance, while a Vue owner may focus more on practical road use and overall utility.

This size is specific to the 2002 Saleen S7 and belongs to the uppermost tier of specialized exotic-car fitments. 275/30R19 combines a wide tread with an extremely short sidewall and should be considered only in the context of the S7’s exact wheel and axle setup. Product coverage exists in the wider year’s performance range for neighboring sizes, but this application is far too specialized to generalize. Owners should verify the full staggered combination and current wheel specifications before selecting a replacement, especially because supercar fitments can be sensitive to even small variations in section width or profile.

345/25R20 is used on the 2002 Saleen S7 and is one of the most extreme rear tire sizes in the 2002 model-year range. Its extraordinary width and ultra-short sidewall place it firmly in the supercar category, where wheel width, offset, and exact axle pairing are critical. This size is not a general 20-inch performance option but a specialized fitment with very narrow application. For an S7 owner, selecting this size means confirming the car’s current wheels, suspension condition, and whether the complete front-and-rear tire package remains consistent with the intended setup.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

205/55R15 is associated with the 2002 Toyota Celica and gives that car a compact sport-coupe radial fitment on a 15-inch wheel. It offers a relatively low profile compared with more comfort-oriented 60- and 65-series sizes, but still keeps the lighter visual scale of a smaller wheel package. The available product is a Vredestein Sprint Plus blackwall with a listed rim-width range of 5.5 to 7.5 inches and a maximum load capacity of 1,235 pounds. For Celica owners, this size is a useful option when preserving the feel and appearance of a lower-trim or smaller-wheel factory setup.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: Wide Whitewall, Blackwall

This size is used on the 2002 Toyota MR2 Spyder and belongs to the lightweight sports-car category. Product options include an American Classic Radial with a 1.625-inch whitewall and a Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2 blackwall. Listed rim-width compatibility ranges from about 5.0 to 6.5 inches depending on product, and one product carries a stated load capacity of 1,047 pounds. The size’s compact, low-profile proportions suit the MR2 Spyder’s small-scale roadster layout, but because the car uses a specialized fitment strategy, buyers should confirm axle position and the matching companion size before replacing tires.

205/50R15 is associated with the 2002 Toyota MR2 Spyder and serves as the wider companion size in that roadster’s fitment mix. It is a low-profile 15-inch radial that keeps the tire package compact and responsive while preserving the wheel scale appropriate to a lightweight mid-engine sports car. Product coverage exists for this size family in the broader 2002 performance range, and the key fitment point is that it should be treated as part of a paired setup rather than a stand-alone replacement. On the MR2 Spyder, front and rear sizes work together and should be confirmed before ordering.

Rim Diameter: 15 in  ·  Sidewalls: OWL, RWL, Redline, Wide Whitewall

This size is specific to the 2002 Toyota Sienna and fits the practical minivan category. 215/65R15 offers a useful combination of sidewall height, road comfort, and load-carrying ability on a 15-inch wheel. Product choices include Goodyear Eagle GT OWL, Cooper Cobra Radial G/T with RWL sidewall, BFGoodrich Silvertown Radial redline, and BFGoodrich Radial T/A RWL. That is an unusually broad styling spread for a minivan size, giving Sienna owners options that range from straightforward touring presentation to more pronounced sidewall character. Wheel diameter confirmation still matters, since minivan trims often vary by equipment level.

Rim Diameter: 14 in  ·  Sidewalls: Blackwall

195/60R14 is associated with the 2002 Volkswagen Cabrio and represents a compact passenger-car radial fitment with a slightly sportier profile than taller 65- or 70-series 14-inch sizes. The available product is a Michelin MXV3-A blackwall. This size suits a small convertible where maintaining balanced ride quality and wheel proportion is important. Because the Cabrio is a relatively specific application in the 2002 range, owners should verify that the car still uses its 14-inch wheel package before ordering. Small-wheel convertibles are often updated with larger rims, which can make an original-size replacement search confusing.
