Understanding the 295/40R21 XL size

In the size code 295/40R21, 295 is the section width in millimetres (about 11.6"). 40 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 40% of the width, or roughly 118 mm. R21 means radial construction on a 21-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 30.3".

The load index 111 means each tire supports up to 2,403 lbs — about 9,612 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 Scorpion is built for

The Pirelli Scorpion is a summer tire, tuned for maximum dry and wet grip in warm conditions; it is not intended for near-freezing temperatures. It is classified for highway terrain(h/t) use.

Tread life and grip ratings

This tire carries a UTQG rating of 400 AA A. The treadwear grade of 400 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 AA 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 $385.87 per tire, a full set of four costs $1543.48. That is about 17% above the average of the 35 tires we stock in this size, reflecting its position in the range.
