2 WHEELER METRIC TYRE SIZE
Tyre size components
Common components
- When specifying tire sizes for two-wheelers, the details typically include several components:
- Width: This is the width of the tire in millimeters. It represents the distance between the sidewalls of the tire when mounted and inflated to the recommended pressure.
- Aspect Ratio (Profile): This number represents the height of the sidewall of the tire as a percentage of the tire's width. It indicates the ratio of the height of the tire's cross-section to its width.
- Construction Type: This indicates the type of tire construction, typically represented by a letter. If omitted, then it is a Bias-ply tyre. Common types include:
- R: Radial construction, where the tire's cords run radially from the center of the tire. These are used for high-performance riding.
- (omitted): Bias-ply construction, where the tire's cords run diagonally across the tire from bead to bead (also called Cross-ply or Diagonal-ply). These are used for cruising or off-roading.
- B: Bias Belted
- Wheel Diameter: This indicates the diameter of the wheel rim, in inches, for which the tire is designed. It represents the size of the wheel onto which the tire will be mounted.
- Load Index (LI): This number indicates the maximum load capacity the tire can handle when properly inflated. The specific load capacity for the index number can be looked up in a load index chart.
- Speed Rating / Speed Symbol (SS): This letter indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can safely operate. Each letter corresponds to a specific speed range.
- Tube Type or Tubeless (TT/TL): This indicates whether the tire is designed to be used with an inner tube (tube type) or without one (tubeless). Tubeless tires have a sealed air chamber between the tire and the wheel rim.
