Understanding the 245/55R18 size

In the size code 245/55R18, 245 is the section width in millimetres (about 9.6"). 55 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 55% of the width, or roughly 134.8 mm. R18 means radial construction on a 18-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 28.6".

The load index 103 means each tire supports up to 1,929 lbs — about 7,716 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.

What the Toyo Celsius II is built for

The Toyo Celsius II is an all-weather tire — a year-round option certified for severe snow service, so it can stay on the vehicle through winter. It carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, meaning it passed a standardised severe-snow traction test. Fitment category: Passenger Car, CAR, SUV/CUV, Performance, Touring.

Tread life and grip ratings

This tire carries a UTQG rating of 560 A A. The treadwear grade of 560 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 $165.28 per tire, a full set of four costs $661.12. That sits close to the average for the 29 tires we stock in this size. Backed by a 60,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $11.02 per 1,000 miles across the set.
