What Does 215/65R15 Actually Mean?

Let's break it down simply: The 215 means this tire has a tread width of 215 millimeters. The 65 is the aspect ratio, which means the sidewall height is 65% of that width. The "R" stands for Radial construction (the modern standard for safety and durability), and finally, the 15 indicates that this tire perfectly fits a 15-inch wheel.
