Understanding the 295/35R24 XL size

In the size code 295/35R24, 295 is the section width in millimetres (about 11.6"). 35 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 35% of the width, or roughly 103.3 mm. R24 means radial construction on a 24-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 32.1".

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.

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).

Price and value

At $306.00 per tire, a full set of four costs $1224.00. That is about 25% above the average of the 3 tires we stock in this size, reflecting its position in the range.
