molded into the sidewall preceding the size designa-
tion. Example: P215/65R15 95H.
• European — Metric tire sizing is based on European
design standards. Tires designed to this standard have
the tire size molded into the sidewall beginning with
the section width. The letter  P  is absent from this tire
size designation. Example: 215/65R15 96H.

letters “LT” that are molded into the sidewall preced-
ing the size designation. Example: LT235/85R16. • Temporary spare tires are designed for temporary
