Frequently asked questions

How do I read a tire size?
A tire size like 225/45R17 means: 225 mm section width, 45% aspect ratio (sidewall height), R = radial construction, 17 inch wheel diameter.
Why does tire diameter matter?
Changing tire diameter affects speedometer accuracy, gear ratios, clearance, and handling. Plus-sizing (larger wheel, lower sidewall) maintains diameter while improving aesthetics and handling.
