I was hoping for some clarification on the numbers on the tyres I have fitted to newly bought GQ td42 diesel.
Right so on the tyre it says:
31x10.5 r15
This is what I think it means;
31 inch tyre
R is for the rim size being 15 inches
BUT what is themiddle number 10.5 all about??
If I am right about the 31 and r15 part my next question is, if I was to buy 33inch tyres would they fit on the same rims I have now or would I have to upgrade them too??
If you have a squizz around at tyre manufactures web sites you can pick up a whole lot of useful info.
EG- list of sizes, rolling diameters, load ratings, amount of ply's use. see attached pic's.
hope this helps.
these are examples of a particular brand for given tyres they have in their range
cheers
