Understanding the 215/50R18 XL size

In the size code 215/50R18, 215 is the section width in millimetres (about 8.5"). 50 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 50% of the width, or roughly 107.5 mm. R18 means radial construction on a 18-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 26.5".

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 700 A A. The treadwear grade of 700 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).

Price and value

At $147.38 per tire, a full set of four costs $589.52. That is about 15% below the average price of the 11 tires we stock in this size. Backed by a 70,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $8.42 per 1,000 miles across the set.
