Jeep Avenger tyres
The Jeep Avenger leaves the factory on 215/55 R18 and 215/60 R17 and 215/65 R16 depending on wheel size, and the 215/65 R16 98H below is the one most owners are replacing. A standard load 98 rating is modest for an electric car and says something about where this one's kerb weight sits. The Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica takes the same size.

Your own placard is the authority. You will find it on the on the driver's door jamb, on the B-pillar. Where it disagrees with this page, it wins. Match or exceed the size, load index, speed rating and construction class it gives, and use its pressure figure rather than anything printed on the tyre.
What changes on this car
The electric Avenger takes exactly the same three sizes and load indices as the petrol and mild-hybrid versions in Michelin's listing, battery and all.
Only the 18 inch is XL and V-rated: 215/55 R18 99V, 775kg per tyre. The 16 and 17 inch sizes are standard load and H-rated.
With a 65 profile, the 16 inch 215/65 R16 has about 140mm of sidewall, a lot for a small car and the most forgiving of the three over broken surfaces.
All three fitments use 215-section tyres, square front to rear, so only the wheel diameter changes between them.
Which one to buy
How these were chosen. Everything here already clears this vehicle's own load index, speed rating and construction class. Each heading is a question about use rather than a ranking. The whole method.
If range is what you care about
Graded A for rolling resistance, the best of anything here, and that is the figure that shows on the range display. Graded B for wet grip. EPREL registration 412158.

Every figure here comes from one tyre maker's own fitment data, checked across different years or trims. That is a second look rather than a second opinion, so check the label on your door jamb before you buy.

Common questions
- What size tyres does the Jeep Avenger take?
- It runs 215/55 R18 and 215/60 R17 and 215/65 R16. The exact fitment for your car is on On the driver's door jamb, on the B-pillar.
- Can I fit a cheaper tyre to a Jeep Avenger?
- Only at 215/65 R16 98H or better. That is the figure to hold: a tyre below the load index, the speed rating or the construction class is not a cheaper one, it is the wrong one.
