These specifications describe a particular size and type of tire. The numerical sequence “225 55 R 19” indicates specific dimensions: 225 millimeters refers to the tire’s width, 55 represents the aspect ratio (the ratio of the sidewall’s height to the tire’s width), and R denotes radial construction. The number 19 signifies that the tire is designed to fit a 19-inch wheel diameter. “All-weather” designates tires engineered to perform adequately in a range of conditions, including dry, wet, and light snow. They offer a balance between summer and winter tire capabilities without requiring seasonal changes.
The selection of appropriate tires significantly impacts vehicle handling, safety, and fuel efficiency. Choosing correctly sized tires ensures proper fitment and optimal performance. All-weather tires provide enhanced versatility for drivers who experience moderate climate variations, eliminating the need for separate sets of summer and winter tires. This choice offers a practical compromise for year-round use, especially in regions with milder winters.
