Tyre designations
Meanings:
e.g. 185/60 R 15 84 T
Speed code letters:
Tyre pressure
Tyre pressures 3 12-8.
Also may be shown on a label located
on the driver’s door pillar.After having checked the tyre
pressures, securely tighten the valve
caps.
The specified tyre pressures are valid
for cold tyres. The increased tyre
pressure resulting from extensive
driving must not be reduced. The tyre
pressures specified apply to both
summer and winter tyres.
Incorrect tyre pressures will impair
safety, vehicle handling, comfort and
fuel economy and will increase tyre
wear. 185= Tyre width in mm
60= Aspect ratio
(tyre height to tyre width
in %)
R= Belt type: Radial
15= Rim diameter in inches
84= Load index
e.g.: 84 represents 500 kg
T= Speed code
Q= Up to 160 km/h (100 mph)
S= Up to 180 km/h (112 mph)
T= Up to 190 km/h (118 mph)
H= Up to 210 km/h (130 mph)
V= Up to 240 km/h (150 mph)
W= Up to 270 km/h (168 mph)
