INFORMATION CONTAINED ON THE TIRE SIDEWALL

Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized

information on the sidewall of all tires. This information identifies and

describes the fundamental characteristics of the tire and also provides a

tire identification number for safety standard certification and in case of

a recall.

Information on “P” type tires

P215/65R15 95H is an example of a

tire size, load index and speed

rating. The definitions of these

items are listed below. (Note that

the tire size, load index and speed

rating for your vehicle may be

different than this example.)

1. P: Indicates a tire, designated

by the Tire and Rim Association

(T&RA), that maybe used for

service on cars, SUVs, minivans

and light trucks.

Note: If your tire size does not

begin with a letter this may mean it

is designated by either ETRTO

(European Tire and Rim Technical Organization) or JATMA (Japan Tire

Manufacturing Association).

2. 215: Indicates the nominal width of the tire in millimeters from

sidewall edge to sidewall edge. In general, the larger the number, the

wider the tire.

3. 65: Indicates the aspect ratio which gives the tire’s ratio of height to

width.

4. R: Indicates a “radial” type tire.

5. 15: Indicates the wheel or rim diameter in inches. If you change

your wheel size, you will have to purchase new tires to match the

new wheel diameter.

6. 95: Indicates the tire’s load index. It is an index that relates to how

much weight a tire can carry. You may find this information in your

owner’s guide. If not, contact a local tire dealer.

Note: You may not find this information on all tires because it is not

required by federal law.
