Understanding the 215/60R17 size

In the size code 215/60R17, 215 is the section width in millimetres (about 8.5"). 60 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 60% of the width, or roughly 129 mm. R17 means radial construction on a 17-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 27.2".

The load index 96 means each tire supports up to 1,565 lbs — about 6,260 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.

What the Falken Winterpeak F-Ice 1 is built for

The Falken Winterpeak F-Ice 1 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. Fitment category: Passenger Car, CAR.
