Understanding the 265/50R20 size

In the size code 265/50R20, 265 is the section width in millimetres (about 10.4"). 50 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 50% of the width, or roughly 132.5 mm. R20 means radial construction on a 20-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 30.4".

The load index 107 means each tire supports up to 2,149 lbs — about 8,596 lbs across a full set of four. The speed symbol T certifies the tire to 118 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 680 A B. The treadwear grade of 680 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 B reflects heat resistance at sustained speed (A is highest).

Price and value

At $212.24 per tire, a full set of four costs $848.96. That is about 9% above the average of the 107 tires we stock in this size, reflecting its position in the range. Backed by a 60,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $14.15 per 1,000 miles across the set.
