About 155/40R13 Tires

The 155/40R13 is a relatively uncommon and specialized tire size primarily found on small microcars, lightweight city vehicles, and some older European economy cars. It is also used on certain kei cars and low-speed vehicles, as well as some utility trailers and small industrial equipment. Due to its narrow width and low-profile design, this size is not found on mainstream passenger vehicles produced in recent years.

At the budget level, brands like Firemax and Haida offer affordable options in this size, though availability may vary by region. For mid-range buyers, Kenda and Nexen occasionally produce tires in this fitment, offering a reasonable balance of performance and durability. Premium options are very limited in this size, but Michelin or Continental may offer compatible fitments in select markets, typically at a significantly higher price point.

Because this is a niche tire size with limited availability, it is advisable to purchase replacements as soon as the need arises rather than waiting for seasonal sales, as stock can be unpredictable. Winter tire options in this size are extremely scarce, so sourcing all-season alternatives well before cold weather arrives is strongly recommended.

Due to low consumer demand and limited manufacturing volume, prices for the 155/40R13 size tend to be relatively high per unit compared to more common sizes, and discounting during seasonal sales events is less frequent than with mainstream tire sizes.
