8226-1. Specifications
Tire ply composition and materials Plies are layers of rubber-coated parallel cords. Cords are the strands
which form the plies in a tire.
Radial tires or bias-ply tires A radial tire has “RADIAL” on the sidewall. A tire not marked “RADIAL” is
a bias-ply tire.
TUBELESS or TUBE TYPE A tubeless tire does not have a tube and air is directly put into the tire. A
tube type tire has a tube inside the ti re and the tube maintains the air pres-
sure.
Load limit at maximum cold tire inflation pressure (  P. 6 8 8 )
Maximum cold tire inflation pressure (  P. 815)This means the pressure to which a tire may be inflated.
Uniform tire quality grading For details, see “Uniform tire quality grading” that follows.
Summer tire or all season tire (  P. 6 8 8 )An all season tire has “M+S” on the sidewall. A tire not marked “M+S” is a
summer tire.
“TEMPORARY USE ONLY” (  P. 783)A compact spare tire is identified by the phrase “TEMPORARY USE
ONLY” molded on its sidewall. This ti re is designed for temporary emer-
gency use only.
