205 50 R17 tyres
In our experience at Protyre, 205 50 R17 tyres are one of the fitments we see most often across our garage network, especially on compact and medium-sized cars.
If you drive a Peugeot 2008, Volkswagen Caddy or Renault Megane, there's a good chance this is already the size fitted to your car, and our fitters can confirm it for you in minutes.
At 17 inches it's a rim size that tends to give a sportier look without pushing the price up too far, and we stock it across Pirelli, Falken and dozens of other brands to suit every budget.

How to check if your car has 205 50 R17 tyres
Every tyre has its size printed on the sidewall, which makes it straightforward to match the right tyre to your car.
Look at the code 205 50 R17, and you can break it into four parts. 205 is the tyre's width in millimetres. 50 is the aspect ratio, the sidewall height as a percentage of that width. R stands for radial construction, and 17 tells you the wheel diameter in inches, so this tyre will only fit a 17-inch rim.
You'll sometimes see the same size written more simply, for example as 205/50 R17 tyres or shortened to 50/17, but they all refer to the same fitment.
What are 205 50 R17 tyres best suited to?
The same wheel size can take tyres of different widths and aspect ratios, so what suits you best depends on your budget, the roads you cover and your driving style. Our fitters most often see this size on hatchbacks and small SUVs, and we stock 205 50 R17 tyres from premium names like Bridgestone and Continental through to more affordable options. Every price shown online already includes fitting, so there's nothing extra to pay once you get to the garage.
At Protyre, this size covers every type you'd expect from a popular fitment.
205 50 R17 summer tyres use a harder compound for confident grip and better fuel efficiency once temperatures climb above around 5 to 7 degrees, while 205 50 R17 winter tyres switch to a softer compound and deeper tread for extra braking and traction in the cold, snow and standing water below that same threshold.
If you'd rather not swap twice a year, 205 50 R17 all season tyres sit in the middle, giving balanced year-round performance without a seasonal changeover, and for extra reassurance after a puncture, 205 50 R17 run flat tyres are built to support the weight of your car for a short distance at reduced speed so you can reach a garage safely rather than fitting a spare at the roadside.
