Understanding the 265/50R19 XL size

In the size code 265/50R19, 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. R19 means radial construction on a 19-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 29.4".

The load index 110 means each tire supports up to 2,337 lbs — about 9,348 lbs across a full set of four. The speed symbol H certifies the tire to 130 mph under its rated load. Always match or exceed the load index and speed rating listed on your vehicle's door-jamb placard.

What the Pirelli Scorpion Winter is built for

The Pirelli Scorpion Winter is a winter tire, using a cold-weather compound that stays pliable below 45°F (7°C) where all-season rubber hardens and loses grip. It carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, meaning it passed a standardised severe-snow traction test. Run-flat construction lets you keep driving a limited distance at reduced speed after a loss of pressure. Fitment category: Passenger Car, SUV/CUV.
