Understanding the 195/50R16 size
In the size code 195/50R16, 195 is the section width in millimetres (about 7.7"). 50 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 50% of the width, or roughly 97.5 mm. R16 means radial construction on a 16-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 23.7".
The load index 84 means each tire supports up to 1,102 lbs — about 4,408 lbs across a full set of four. The speed symbol V certifies the tire to 149 mph under its rated load. Always match or exceed the load index and speed rating listed on your vehicle's door-jamb placard.
Tread life and grip ratings
This tire carries a UTQG rating of 460 A A. The treadwear grade of 460 is a relative durability score — a grade of 200 is expected to last roughly twice as long as a grade of 100 under the same controlled test. Traction grade A measures straight-line wet stopping grip (AA is highest, then A, B and C). Temperature grade A reflects heat resistance at sustained speed (A is highest).
