225/60R17 Tyres

Crossover and urban SUV tyres in this size are among the highest-volume fitments in Australia, covering the Toyota RAV4, Mazda CX-5, Honda CR-V, Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage, Nissan X-Trail, Subaru Forester and Outback, and Volkswagen Tiguan, among many others. High production volumes make this one of the most price-competitive tyre categories in the country.

At the budget end, Kumho Crugen HP71, Linglong CrossWind, and Sailun Terramax offer adequate everyday performance at a fraction of premium prices — suitable for lower-kilometre drivers focused on value. Mid-range options are the sweet spot for most buyers: Hankook Dynapro HP2, Yokohama Geolandar G055, Falken Sincera SN250, and Toyo Proxes CL1 SUV all deliver noticeably better wet grip and longer tread life than budget brands without the premium price. At the top end, Michelin Primacy SUV+, Bridgestone Dueler H/P Sport, and Continental CrossContact RX are the benchmarks for ride quality and all-weather confidence.

For this category, all-weather capability is a key differentiator — if you drive in wet conditions regularly, prioritise wet braking scores over dry-weather performance. Tread life ratings are especially important here as heavier crossovers wear through tyres faster than passenger cars; premium brands with harder compounds can outlast cheap options by 20,000+ km, often making them cheaper per kilometre. Load rating should match your crossover's requirements (typically 103–109). eBay is worth checking for this size as it's well-stocked by multiple Australian sellers, and seasonal promotions often bring mid-range brands to well below retail pricing.
