Default Tire size?

Anyone know what the tire size is on the Fiesta Hatch with the 15" aluminum wheels that come with the Sport Appearance Package (Rapid Spec - 202A).?

Thanks

Thanks BRGT350. I have to see if my P5's winter tires will fit on those rims. Don't remember off hand what profile I'm running. If they will fit, I'll order some 16" rims and tires for the summer.

I am going to use the stock 16" wheels for winter and buy a new set of winter shoes for them. My wife decided that the tires are a needed expense so that won't have to come from my racing/modifying budget. My summer wheels are custom 17" ones from Axis with some kind of 205/40 17 tire. I am not sure what tire I am going to use yet. The wheels have 215/45's on them now, but I will sell those with my Focus since they are too big for the Fiesta. The car sits way too high on those tires, so I am going to change them for something different. Still wondering what to do with the TPMS sensors.

Black tape over the alarm light always works
Unless there's an audible alarm, too...

black electrical tape,...2nd most useful tape next to Duct Tape. I suspect it will show up on the multi function LCD panel at the center of the dash.

Back to the tires; My P5's winter tires are 195/65's so they should fit the Fiesta rims fine. Pessimistic speedo being the only hitch.

This is a list of all tires sizes and the pressures that should be run in them the first set of pressures is normal loads and the second set of numbers is for fully loaded. This is the tire size listed for European models which is why there is a 14 wheel listed.
All engines 175/65 R14 F (31) R (26) F (35) R (46)
All engines 195/50 R15 F (31) R (26) F (35) R (46)
All engines 195/45 R16 F (31) R (26) F (35) R (46)

The Fiesta uses 4 x 108 wheels. I am using a set of 2001 Focus wheels for the winter, and I test fit my 17" Focus wheels on the Fiesta this summer.
