Understanding the 235/50R19 size

In the size code 235/50R19, 235 is the section width in millimetres (about 9.3"). 50 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 50% of the width, or roughly 117.5 mm. R19 means radial construction on a 19-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 28.3".

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 Cooper Tractioncommand is built for

The Cooper Tractioncommand is an all-weather tire — a year-round option certified for severe snow service, so it can stay on the vehicle through winter. It carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, meaning it passed a standardised severe-snow traction test. Fitment category: Passenger Car, CAR, Performance, Touring.

Tread life and grip ratings

This tire carries a UTQG rating of 640 A A. The treadwear grade of 640 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 $179.24 per tire, a full set of four costs $716.96. That sits close to the average for the 87 tires we stock in this size. Backed by a 60,000-mile treadwear warranty, that works out to roughly $11.95 per 1,000 miles across the set.
