Wheel size designation
Wheels are also marked with impor-
tant specifications. The following
example of the wheel size designa-
tion explains how the letters and
numbers are interpreted.
Example wheel size designation:
8.0JX19
8.0 - Rim width in inches.
J - Rim contour designation.
19 - Rim diameter in inches.
Tire speed ratings
The below chart lists up different
speed ratings for a tire of a passen-
ger vehicle. The speed rating is one
part of the tire size designation,
specified on the tire side wall. Each
symbol represents the maximum
driving speed of a tire.
3. Checking tire life (TIN : Tire
Identification Number)
Any tires, which are 6 years or older
from the manufacturing date (includ-
ing the spare tire), should be
replaced with a new one. The manu-
facturing date is written on a tire side
wall (possibly inside of a wheel) in
the DOT Code. The DOT Code is a
series of numbers on a tire, which
consist of numbers and English let-
ters. The manufacturing date is writ-
ten in the last four digits (characters)
of the DOT code.
DOT : XXXX XXXX OOOO
The front part of the DOT are the
plant code, tire size and tread pat-
tern. The last four digits indicate the
manufacturing week and the manu-
facturing year.
For example:
DOT XXXX XXXX 1615 represents
that the tire was produced in the 16th
week of 2015.
S 112 mph (180 km/h)
T 118 mph (190 km/h)
H 130 mph (210 km/h)
V 149 mph (240 km/h)
Z Above 149 mph (240 km/h)

- Tire age
Tires degrade over time, even
when they are not driven.
Regardless of the remaining
tread, it is recommended to
replace tires every 6 years. Heat
under the hot weather or fre-
quent overloading may acceler-
ate the aging process. Failure to
follow this warning may result
in a sudden tire failure, leading
to a loss of control, accident,
serious injury or death.
