Understanding the 225/45R17 size

In the size code 225/45R17, 225 is the section width in millimetres (about 8.9"). 45 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 45% of the width, or roughly 101.3 mm. R17 means radial construction on a 17-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 25".

The load index 91 means each tire supports up to 1,356 lbs — about 5,424 lbs across a full set of four. The speed symbol V certifies the tire to 149 mph under its rated load. Always match or exceed the load index and speed rating listed on your vehicle's door-jamb placard.

Price and value

At $143.99 per tire, a full set of four costs $575.96. That sits close to the average for the 163 tires we stock in this size. Backed by a 70,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $8.23 per 1,000 miles across the set.
