The first number (205) represents the width of the tyre in millimeters, measured from sidewall to sidewall.
The second number (55) is the aspect ratio - the height of the sidewall as a percentage of the width. A lower number means a lower profile tyre.
The number after 'R' (16) indicates the diameter of the wheel rim in inches that the tyre is designed to fit.
The final code (91V) indicates the maximum load capacity (91 = 615kg per tyre) and speed rating (V = up to 240km/h).
