Understanding the 295/35ZR20 XL size

In the size code 295/35R20, 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. R20 means radial construction on a 20-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 28.1".

The load index 105 means each tire supports up to 2,039 lbs — about 8,156 lbs across a full set of four. The speed symbol W certifies the tire to 168 mph under its rated load. Always match or exceed the load index and speed rating listed on your vehicle's door-jamb placard.
