How to use a service description
The service description follows the size marking, for example 225/45R17 91V.
The number is the load index and the letter is the speed symbol. Replacement tyres should
normally meet or exceed both values specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
The rating is not a promise that every tyre is suitable for every vehicle. Pressure, axle load, wheel size, construction, certification and local rules still matter.
