About 155/60R17 Tires

The 155/60R17 tire size is relatively uncommon and is most notably used on fuel-efficient compact cars, including certain trims of the Toyota Prius and similar hybrid vehicles where narrow, low-rolling-resistance tires are prioritized. This size is specifically engineered to reduce aerodynamic drag and improve fuel economy on eco-focused models. Owners of these vehicles should note that replacement options may be more limited compared to mainstream tire sizes.

At the budget end, Yokohama and Toyo offer reliable options in this size with decent fuel efficiency ratings at a lower cost. For mid-range buyers, Bridgestone Ecopia and Michelin Energy Saver series provide a strong balance of longevity, low rolling resistance, and ride comfort. Premium shoppers should consider Michelin Primacy or Continental EcoContact lines, which deliver top-tier performance, extended tread life, and excellent fuel economy ratings.

Because this size is primarily found on hybrid vehicles driven year-round, shopping in late winter or early spring can yield modest savings as demand for eco-tire sizes dips after the winter season. Stocking up before summer or the back-to-school season can also help avoid inventory shortages given the limited availability of this niche size.

Due to its niche application and limited production volume, the 155/60R17 size tends to command slightly higher prices than more common compact car sizes, with typical retail prices ranging from around $90 to $180 per tire depending on brand and retailer.
