In the size code 205/60R16, 205 is the section width in millimetres (about 8.1"). 60 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 60% of the width, or roughly 123 mm. R16 means radial construction on a 16-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 25.7".

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 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 Pirelli Cinturato Winter 2 is built for

The Pirelli Cinturato Winter 2 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, SUV/CUV.
