What does 195/60r16 tire mean?
1 Answers
195 represents the tire width is 195MM. 60 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 60%, meaning the section height is 60% of the width. R stands for radial tire, with the full English name being RADIAL. 16 means the rim diameter is 16 inches. More information about tires is as follows: 1. When purchasing tires, use the original manufacturer's matching size: Unless there are special requirements for handling, the original manufacturer's matching size is the best choice when replacing tires. Of course, if you want to improve the vehicle's handling through tire upgrades, you can consider tires with a lower aspect ratio, which is also one of the effective methods to enhance the vehicle's appearance and handling performance. 2. Choosing the right tire tread pattern is very important: For cars, it is advisable to choose tires with longitudinal patterns or a combination of longitudinal and lateral patterns that have good heat dissipation and strong lateral stability. For off-road vehicles, choose off-road tread patterns with wide and deep grooves and a relatively small contact area of the tread blocks. 3. Considerations for selecting the speed rating of tires: A large proportion of tire blowout and rollover accidents on highways are due to insufficient speed ratings of the tires. Choose the speed rating of the tires based on your vehicle's performance.
