Understanding the 205/70R16 size

In the size code 205/70R16, 205 is the section width in millimetres (about 8.1"). 70 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 70% of the width, or roughly 143.5 mm. R16 means radial construction on a 16-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 27.3".

The load index 97 means each tire supports up to 1,609 lbs — about 6,436 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.

What the Nexen Roadian ATX is built for

It carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, meaning it passed a standardised severe-snow traction test. Fitment category: Undefined.

Tread life and grip ratings

This tire carries a UTQG rating of 600 A B. The treadwear grade of 600 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 B reflects heat resistance at sustained speed (A is highest).

Price and value

At $118.50 per tire, a full set of four costs $474.00. That is about 9% above the average of the 19 tires we stock in this size, reflecting its position in the range. Backed by a 70,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $6.77 per 1,000 miles across the set.
