Understanding the P275/60R15 size
In the size code 275/60R15, 275 is the section width in millimetres (about 10.8"). 60 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 60% of the width, or roughly 165 mm. R15 means radial construction on a 15-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 28".
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 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 100 A A. The treadwear grade of 100 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 $199.50 per tire, a full set of four costs $798.00. That is about 17% above the average of the 6 tires we stock in this size, reflecting its position in the range.
