An overview of car tyre size
Car tyre size is an alpha-numeric code imprinted on the tyre sidewalls, providing structural and dimensional details to customers.
Suppose your vehicle requires tyres of 185/60 R 14 82 H size; what does this mean?
185: It refers to the width of a tyre’s sidewall in millimetres.
60: It is the ratio of a tyre’s sidewall to its width. That means the height of your car tyre is 45% of its width.
R: It denotes the construction type of a tyre. Here ‘R’ stands for radial construction.
Note: Other than ‘R’, there are two other variants: bias-ply and diagonal construction.
14: It is the rim diameter of your car tyre in inches.
82: This refers to the load-bearing index of a tyre. That means your car’s tyre can weigh a maximum load of 1047 lbs.
H: The alphabet refers to the speed index at which your car tyre can deliver maximum on-road performance. It means that your car tyre can withstand the highest speed of up to 130 mph.
