molded into the sidewall preceding the size designation.
Example: P215/65R15 95H.
• European-Metric tire sizing is based on European

letters “LT” that are molded into the sidewall preceding
the size designation. Example: LT235/85R16.
• Temporary spare tires are spares designed for temporary
emergency use only. Temporary high pressure
compact spare tires have the letter “T” or “S” molded
into the sidewall preceding the size designation. Example: T145/80D18 103M.
