Tires Information Help!

Hi... here's something useful for those who wishes to know more about their vehicle's tires information.

The tire specifications are usually as follows: 195/55/R15 where

195 = 195mm is the tire's section width which is measured from the inner sidewall to the other sidewall.

55 = tire size's sidewall height, so for this case, it is 55% of 195mm

R15 = indicates the rims diameter..in this case..it is a 15" rims construct.

Interested readers can goto http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=46
to read more!

Next, comes the manufacture date of the tires, which can be found on the sidewall.

a 2607 indication on the side wall means the tire was made on the 26TH WEEK OF YEAR 2007. So the first 2 digits indicate the production week of the year and the last 2 digits indicate the year of manufacture.

Always remember to choose new tires!
