Understanding the 285/40ZR22 XL size

In the size code 285/40R22, 285 is the section width in millimetres (about 11.2"). 40 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 40% of the width, or roughly 114 mm. R22 means radial construction on a 22-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 31".

The load index 110 means each tire supports up to 2,337 lbs — about 9,348 lbs across a full set of four. The speed symbol Y certifies the tire to 186 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 380 A A. The treadwear grade of 380 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 $294.74 per tire, a full set of four costs $1178.96. That is about 35% below the average price of the 43 tires we stock in this size.
