Understanding the 205/65R15 size

In the size code 205/65R15, 205 is the section width in millimetres (about 8.1"). 65 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 65% of the width, or roughly 133.3 mm. R15 means radial construction on a 15-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 25.5".

The load index 94 means each tire supports up to 1,477 lbs — about 5,908 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 Firestone Affinity AS is built for

The Firestone Affinity AS is an all-season tire, balancing dry grip, wet traction and tread life across spring, summer and autumn conditions. Fitment category: Passenger Car.

Tread life and grip ratings

This tire carries a UTQG rating of 600 A A. The treadwear grade of 600 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 A reflects heat resistance at sustained speed (A is highest).

Price and value

At $89.99 per tire, a full set of four costs $359.96. That sits close to the average for the 53 tires we stock in this size. Backed by a 65,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $5.54 per 1,000 miles across the set.
