2021 Volkswagen Jetta Tire Sizes

The 2021 Volkswagen Jetta uses either 205/55R17 or 205/60R16 tires, depending on the vehicle’s wheel and trim configuration. Check the size printed on the tire currently fitted to your Jetta and compare it with the listed options before replacing a tire.

The size code describes tire width, aspect ratio, and wheel diameter; the final number is the wheel diameter in inches. The two listed sizes differ in both aspect ratio and wheel diameter, so they are not interchangeable based on appearance alone. Use the size specified for your vehicle’s configuration, and confirm any rating or specification not listed here on the driver-side door jamb or in the owner’s manual.

These figures apply to the 2021 model year. The facts do not identify which trim or engine uses each size, or provide load and speed ratings. Verify the correct fitment for your specific Jetta on the door jamb or in the owner’s manual rather than assuming the sizes apply to every configuration.
