The 165/45R22 is an uncommon and highly specialized tire size that is not found on mainstream passenger vehicles. It may appear on certain custom builds, lightweight electric vehicles, or concept cars where a very narrow profile combined with a large 22-inch rim diameter is specified. Buyers should verify fitment carefully, as this size has limited OEM applications.
At the budget level, options are extremely limited due to the rarity of this size, but occasional offerings from smaller regional brands or specialty importers may be available at lower price points. Mid-range buyers might find options from brands like Maxxis or similar manufacturers that cater to specialty fitments. For premium quality, Michelin or Continental may produce this size for specific applications, though availability should be confirmed directly with the manufacturer or a specialty tire dealer.
Treddur is currently tracking 4 listings for 165/45R22 tires. Prices range from $147.64 to $318.00 depending on brand and retailer.
Because this is a niche size with limited availability, buyers should purchase whenever stock is found rather than waiting for seasonal sales, as inventory can be scarce year-round. Waiting for traditional spring or winter tire sales may result in difficulty finding this size at all.
Due to the extremely low production volume and limited demand for this niche size, prices tend to be higher per tire than comparably sized more common fitments, with significant price variation depending on availability and supplier.
