tire size

Rubber circumference specification

Tire size is the standardized code describing a tire's dimensions and specifications, typically found on the sidewall.

The format combines width, aspect ratio, and wheel diameter: a 225/45R17 tire is 225 millimeters wide, with sidewall height 45% of that width, fitting a 17-inch rim.

I need to check my tire size before ordering replacements.
