Frequently Asked Questions
Think of the dimensions of the tire as its size. The number "275" designates this measurement
as the widest point between the tire's outer and inner edges. Hence, the word "section width"
refers to the distance expressed in millimeters.
The aspect ratio, expressed as the sidewall height of the tire as a percentage of its section
width, is represented by the number "60". Here, the sidewall height equals 60% of the width of
the 275-mm section. Moreover, the rim diameter is 18 inches, and the "R" stands for radial
construction.
Tire size has a significant impact on how well your car handles. Improved grip and stability are a result of the wider contact area between the road and the 275-mm section width, particularly in off-road and inclement weather. With a 60% aspect ratio and a sizable sidewall that can absorb irregularities in the road while maintaining tire responsiveness, you can ride in comfort.
