Understanding the 275/55R20 size

In the size code 275/55R20, 275 is the section width in millimetres (about 10.8"). 55 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 55% of the width, or roughly 151.3 mm. R20 means radial construction on a 20-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 31.9".

The load index 113 means each tire supports up to 2,535 lbs — about 10,140 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 $211.49 per tire, a full set of four costs $845.96. That sits close to the average for the 156 tires we stock in this size. Backed by a 60,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $14.10 per 1,000 miles across the set.
