The tyre label is required in different situations. It and buying new rubber, and recruitment drives on wheels, and even the calculation of the cost of the tire (because the larger the radius of the wheel, the more expensive it is).

Marking is applied to the side of the tire and is the most complete information about the manufacturer of the rubber, its size, load index and speed etc.
Experts recommend to carefully study all options when choosing tires. So you can choose the best option which will serve you for years.


Transcript of car tires



An alphanumeric code that is located on the side surface of the rubber, shall disclose to the person information, which is characteristic of a type of tires. For example, if to take for a basis the figures 175/70 R13 91T, you can see that the wheel has a 175-inch (or mm) section width, 70% height of the profile relative to the width, the 13-m radius. The last number is 91 is the maximum load on the tire.
On some tire manufacturer even indicate which wheel they are. Left and Right – for the left and right. This is due to the fact that the tread pattern they have is located asymmetrically, and it should not be confused.


In addition, the bus can be found and labeling the type of rubber, for example, winter or all season tyres. Combination M+S or M&S will tell you that before you such rubber. All Season is a sign of all-season rubber.

If is crucial to set, for example, it should be strictly asymmetric, the tire will be marking Outside and Inside. Thus, the manufacturer shows the method of installation.

The importance of the fact, with the cell bus. Index Tubless (TL) indicates that the design of the tubeless. Those instances in which the camera is present, will have the designation: Tube Type (TT).

The thermal resistance of tire while driving at high speed are referred to as temperature A, B, C, where A is the best indicator, In – medium, C – low. Also on the bus may be the indication of braking on wet surfaces. Its presence can be judged by the word traction. He also mentions 3 levels.

Marking a truck tire



Truck tyres, due to the fact that operated in more demanding conditions, have a slightly different marking.

On the side of the tyres for the truck you will find information about the producer of rubber, the type of its tread, including for applicability, which is quite important to select the correct way of driving.

In addition, on the bus you can find information about size, numbers of which, of course, will be many times more than passenger vehicles. Also with tires you can "consider" information about the performance characteristics of rubber, for example, a load index is provided for single or double busbars. And even on the bus there is a level (or as it is otherwise called the index) load, and data security standards, for example, a detailed description of the tread.

Some manufacturers specify on their tires and whether they can continue to recycle.

To decipher the parameters of the tire - whether it's Russian or Japanese, or any other, is not so difficult. Once faced with the need to decrypt, then you will easily and quickly get all the information you need with rubber.
