The figures indicate the following: 195 mm is the width of the tire, Height is 65% the width(195 = 0.65 x 126.75 mm), bore diameter is equal to 15 inches, for the production of tires used technology for creating radial tires (R - radial tire, instead radius, as many people think). Except possibly for radially, all these parameters indicate the overall geometry of the wheel, according to these data, the driver judges that, It suits him for the physical size of the tire or not. Indicator tire width (example 195) directly linked to indicators such as the width of the landing disc, because the bought tire width must match the rim width, that it can be installed on existing drives. If you buy disks for existing tires, These figures take into account when choosing a drive. The minimum information content to the consumer has a radial tire component, as virtually all tires, which produce - radial. For the overall development worth knowing, there is still bias tires.
