Understanding the 215/40ZR17 XL size
In the size code 215/40R17, 215 is the section width in millimetres (about 8.5"). 40 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height is 40% of the width, or roughly 86 mm. R17 means radial construction on a 17-inch wheel, giving an approximate overall diameter of 23.8".
The load index 87 means each tire supports up to 1,201 lbs — about 4,804 lbs across a full set of four. The speed symbol W certifies the tire to 168 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 280 AA A. The treadwear grade of 280 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 $112.50 per tire, a full set of four costs $450.00. That is about 25% below the average price of the 9 tires we stock in this size.
