Understanding the 255/50R19 XL size
In the size code 255/50R19, 255 is the section width in millimetres (about 10"). 50 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 50% of the width, or roughly 127.5 mm. R19 means radial construction on a 19-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 29".
The load index 107 means each tire supports up to 2,149 lbs — about 8,596 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.
Tread life and grip ratings
This tire carries a UTQG rating of 340 B A. The treadwear grade of 340 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 B 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 $260.24 per tire, a full set of four costs $1040.96. That is about 22% above the average of the 108 tires we stock in this size, reflecting its position in the range.
