In 255/75R17, the first number 255 represents the tire width of 255MM, 75 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 75%, meaning the section height is 75% of the width, 17 represents the rim diameter of 17 inches, and the letter "R" in the middle stands for radial tire. In 255/70R18, the first number 255 represents the tire width of 255MM, 70 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 70%, meaning the section height is 70% of the width, 18 represents the rim diameter of 18 inches, and the letter "R" in the middle stands for radial tire.

The Wrangler's tires are from the Goodyear brand, featuring an open shoulder tread block design, with the spare tire being full-size. If you want to replace the tires yourself, follow these steps: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the frame of the tire you want to replace, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car, the jack should be under the vehicle, check and ensure the jack is at a right angle to the ground; Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise, do not completely loosen them, just enough to eliminate resistance, keeping the tire on the ground when first loosening the nuts ensures the nuts turn instead of the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they come off, repeat this step for all lug nuts, then remove the nuts completely; Place the new tire on the hub, carefully align the tire rim with the wheel bolts, install the lug nuts, tighten them by hand until all nuts are snug, at which point the tire replacement is complete. Besides the model, tires also have the following common markings: Tire cord material: indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M-cotton cord, R-rayon cord, N-nylon cord, G-steel cord, ZG-steel radial cord. Speed rating: indicates the maximum speed the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h.
