Hey everyone, especially those who might not be tire experts! We get it – figuring out tire sizes can be a bit puzzling. But no worries, we're here to simplify things. At Big 10 Tire Pros, we want to make sure you know exactly how to find the perfect tires for your ride.

Let's start with the basics. Your tire size usually looks like a mix of numbers and letters, such as P215/60R16. It might seem a bit confusing, but we'll break it down in straightforward terms.

Check Your Current Tires: The easiest way to find your tire size is by looking at your current tires. On the sidewall, you'll see a series of numbers and letters, like P215/60R16.

• P - Tire Type: The first letter indicates the type of tire. "P" stands for passenger car, which is the most common. If you see "LT," it means the tire is for a light truck.
• 215 - Tire Width: This number tells you how wide the tire is in millimeters.
• 60 - Aspect Ratio: This is the ratio of the tire's height to its width. In this example, the height is 60% of the tire's width.
• R - Construction: "R" stands for radial construction, the most common type of tire.
• 16 - Rim Diameter: This number indicates the size of the wheel or rim in inches.

Refer to Your Vehicle Manual: If you can't find the information on your tires, or if you're looking for a quick reference, your vehicle's manual is a great source. It'll specify the recommended tire size for your make and model.

Check the Door Jamb: Open your driver's side door and check the sticker on the door jamb. It often has information about the recommended tire size for your specific vehicle.

Online Tools: For those who prefer digital solutions, our website offers a tire search tool where you can input your vehicle details, and we will provide you with the correct tire size recommendations and available tires.
