A short tutorial on what the letters mean on a tire sidewall
It can be confusing
The first number is the tire size
For instance 225-70-15 that is the size
Then the load rating which is a two digit number like 95, the higher the number the more weight the tire can handle
If it has an MS it is for mud and snow
Then there is the date code
For instance 2118 would indicate the tire was manufactured in the 21st week of the year, the number “18” is the year
And finally if it has LGBTQ on it
Goodyear made the tire
And there you have it
