Are 285 x 75 x 16 Light Truck Tires for You?

You need tires, but do you know what size tires are meant for your truck? Once you know the correct size, then you have to decide what type of tire you need. Use the following information to help you buy tires for your truck.

How do you size up your trucks tires?

Your truck`s manual will tell you what tires you need, or you can look at the tires on your truck to get the numbers. However, used vehicles may not have a manual and may have a mixture of tires. In this case, look at tires with the same numbers as the tires on your truck. The compatibility checker will tell you if it’s the correct tire for your truck. If you still dont get a match, use the My Garage link.

What is the significance of the numbers printed on tires?

The type of the tire is indicated by the first letter(s). These lt285 75r16 tires are intended for light trucks. A “P” would mean it is a passenger tire, and a “T” would mean it is a temporary spare tire. On these 285 x 75 x 16 tires, the 285 designates that these tires are 285 millimeters wide. The 75 indicates the 285 x 75 x 16 tire size or aspect ratio is 75%, which means that the height of these tires is 75% of their width. Since this is a larger ratio, then this tire would have a wider sidewall.

Radial tires, such as these 285 75r16 tires, have the letter “R” next to them. If the letter is a “D”, then it would be a tire with diagonal construction. If it is a “B”, then it would be a belted tire.

The next number provides the wheel size needed to fit a 285 75r16 tire in inches.

The maximum load weight is indicated by the fourth number, if there is one. These numbers are not the actual number of pounds. For example, 852 pounds would be the maximum load weight for a tire with a 75. A tire with an 89 would have a maximum load weight of 1,279, and a tire with a 100 would have a maximum load weight of 1,764 pounds.

The maximum speed at which a tire can safely carry a load is indicated by the final letter. You should never replace a tire with one with a lower maximum speed rating.
