on US design standards. P-Metric tires have
the letter “P” molded into the sidewall
preceding the size designation.

European design standards. Tires designed
to this standard have the tire size molded

size designation. Example: 215/65R15 96H.

molded into the sidewall preceding the size
designation. Example: LT235/85R16.
Temporary spare tires are designed for
temporary emergency use only. Temporary
