Royal Black Racing Trac 205/55R17 95W XL

The Royal Black Racing Trac is a high-performance all-season tire built for passenger cars. It fits a 17-inch rim with a 205 mm section width and a 55 aspect ratio. The XL load range supports a 95 load index and a W speed rating certified up to 168 mph.

Drivers wanting year-round grip

Suits owners of sedans and similar passenger vehicles who need reliable traction in wet and dry conditions. Not for buyers who require a dedicated winter tire for severe snow and ice, nor for vehicles that need a higher load index or a different rim diameter.

UTQG 420AA treadwear and traction grades

The 420 treadwear rating indicates a durable compound for extended mileage, while the AA traction grade delivers strong wet braking. Tread depth starts at 7/32 inch, providing usable life before replacement. Run-flat capability is not included, so a spare or repair kit is necessary for punctures.

Questions about this item

Do I need a 17-inch rim for this 205/55R17 tyre?

Yes, the tyre fits a 17-inch rim; the listing confirms Rim Size 17 and the tyre only is supplied.

Will the 95-load-index XL tyre work with a standard-load tyre on the opposite corner?

The XL rating means reinforced construction for higher load capacity; mixing load indices on the same axle is not recommended.

How can I confirm the tyre is performing correctly after fitting?

Check that the sidewall shows 205/55R17 95W XL, verify pressure matches the vehicle placard, and monitor even tread wear across the 7/32-inch depth.
