Understanding the 225/50R18 XL size

In the size code 225/50R18, 225 is the section width in millimetres (about 8.9"). 50 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 50% of the width, or roughly 112.5 mm. R18 means radial construction on a 18-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 26.9".

The load index 99 means each tire supports up to 1,709 lbs — about 6,836 lbs across a full set of four. The speed symbol V certifies the tire to 149 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 Goodyear Assurance Maxlife 2 is built for

The Goodyear Assurance Maxlife 2 is an all-season tire, balancing dry grip, wet traction and tread life across spring, summer and autumn conditions. It carries an M+S (mud and snow) marking for light winter service. Fitment category: Passenger Car, CAR, SUV/CUV, Performance, Touring.

Tread life and grip ratings

This tire carries a UTQG rating of 820 A B. The treadwear grade of 820 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 $171.74 per tire, a full set of four costs $686.96. That is about 9% above the average of the 109 tires we stock in this size, reflecting its position in the range. Backed by a 85,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $8.08 per 1,000 miles across the set.
