1.Locate
the vehicle's original equipment tire aspect ratio.
Look along the top of the chart.
2.Locate
the vehicle's original equipment tire section width.
Go down that column until you find the section width (in millimeters).
3.Verify
that the existing wheel is acceptable for the new tire.
The tire widths on the same line, listed horizontally, along with their
corresponding aspect ratio are the Plus Zero options or original rim
diameters.
4.Figure
the Plus One Option.
Start with the original section width and
aspect ratio and move up one line and to the right two columns to find
the new section width and aspect ratio. The use of a Plus One tire size
will require the use of a new wheel. Verify that the new wheel's offset
and rim width are correct.
5.Figure
the Plus Two option.
Start with the original section width and
aspect ratio, and move up two lines and to the right four columns, to
find the new section width and aspect ratio. The use of a Plus Two tire
size also requires the use of a new wheel. Verify that the new wheel's
offset and rim width are correct.
6.Check
load-carrying capacity of selected Plus Fitment.
While the chart below will help provide a
plus tire size with approximately the same overall diameter as the OE
tire, load-chart comparison should always be checked to ensure an
adequate load-carrying capacity of plus fitment. If a plus size does not
have adequate load-carrying capacity, it may be necessary to increase
the plus tire size by 10 mm to achieve the proper load-carrying
capacity.
Warning:
In all applications, you must verify that
the new tire's load-carrying capacity equals or exceeds the
load-carrying capacity of the original equipment tire and/or the
vehicle's front and rear Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) and the
vehicle's Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). This chart spans a tire
section width range of 7.8 in. (200 mm), which makes on-vehicle
clearance checks mandatory.
