[ "So, what are tyre markings,;exactly? The writing or markings on your tyre's rubber serve two main;purposes: first, to convey important information such as the tyre's size and specifications, and second, to demonstrate that the tyre has met the necessary safety standards.This data is displayed in the form of various signs and symbols, which can be confusing if you're not sure what you're looking for. Understand what your tyre is telling you with this useful guide to tyre markingsLets suppose one of your car tyres sleaford says 260/50 D17 106W.The Size of the TyreThe size of the tyre is indicated by a;string of numbers (here, 260/50 D17). This is critical because any tyres you install on your car must be the exact size as mentioned in your vehicle's owner's manual. The following are the meanings of the tyre numbers:Tyre Width  260This is the breadth of the tyre from sidewall to sidewall in millimetres.Aspect Ratio  50These numbers represent the height of the tyre sidewall as a percentage of the width of the tyre. The tyre height in this case is 50 percent of the tyre;width.Tyre Construction  DThe letter D' signifies that the tyre is constructed diagonally. Radial construction ('R') is used in the majority of the;tyres manufactured today. The B' construction (bias belt);is another possibility.Wheel Diameter  17This number represents the diameter of the wheel rim to which the tyre will be fitted in inches.The Load Index of the TyreThe load index is a numerical code that corresponds to the maximum load that a tyre can carry. In our example, the load index is 106. The load index is proportional to the weight in kilogrammes, as shown in the table below. Because the tyre's load index is 106 in this case, the maximum load it can handle is 950 kilogrammes.Load IndexKillogrammesLoad IndexKillogrammesLoad IndexKillogrammes65290804509569066300814629671067307824759773068315834879875069325845009977570335855151008007134586530101825723558754510285073365885601038757437589580104900753879060010592576400916151069507741292630107975784259365010810007943794670The Speed Rating of the TyreThe speed rating is represented by a letter, such as W,' and specifies the highest speed at which a tyre may run while carrying its maximum weight. The letter of the speed rating refers to the speed in miles or kilometres per hour. Since the tyre in this case has a speed rating of W,' the maximum speed is 168 mph, or;270km/h. The table below shows the speed rating in kilometres per hour." ]
