How to Read a Tire Size

It’s simple to understand what all of the letters and numbers on your tire’s sidewall mean with a little explanation. The numbers correspond to the tire’s size, width, and performance. For example,

 

  • (235/35R18)

 

Note: 235 refers to the width, 35R is profile, The 18 at the end is size.

 

After the aspect ratio comes a letter that indicates the type of internal construction maintaining your tire’s stability: 225/70R16.

 

There are two types of construction that you may see on the sidewall of a tire:

 

  • R – Radial

 

  • D – Diagonal or Bias Ply

 

Radial tires represent the vast majority of tires on the road in the United States today; thus “R” will usually be shown in the tire size designation. Radial construction means the tire’s internal ply cords are oriented in a radial direction, from one bead over to the other, essentially perpendicular to the axis of rotation.
