Understanding the 275/50R22 XL size

In the size code 275/50R22, 275 is the section width in millimetres (about 10.8"). 50 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 50% of the width, or roughly 137.5 mm. R22 means radial construction on a 22-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 32.8".

The load index 115 means each tire supports up to 2,679 lbs — about 10,716 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.

Tread life and grip ratings

This tire carries a UTQG rating of 800 A B. The treadwear grade of 800 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 $239.24 per tire, a full set of four costs $956.96. That sits close to the average for the 57 tires we stock in this size. Backed by a 80,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $11.96 per 1,000 miles across the set.
