Upgrading from standard touring tires

This tire replaces standard touring or basic all-season tires when higher cornering grip and wet traction are priorities. The UTQG traction rating of A and treadwear rating of 420 indicate strong wet stopping power and durable tread life. The jump is worth it for drivers who want responsive handling in dry and wet conditions throughout the year.

Check rim diameter and load requirements

Verify that your wheels are 18 inches in diameter before ordering. Confirm the vehicle manufacturer recommends a load index of 94 or higher and an XL load range for your specific application. Ensure the 255 mm section width and 35 aspect ratio fit within your wheel arches without rubbing. Do not purchase if your vehicle requires run-flat tires, as this model is not run-flat.

Questions about this item

Will this 255/35R18 tyre fit an 18-inch rim?

Yes, the 255/35R18 size is designed for an 18-inch rim diameter with a section width of 255 mm and an overall diameter of 25 inches.

Does mounting require any special steps for the XL load rating?

Inflate to the vehicle manufacturer's XL pressure specification; the common mistake is using standard-load pressure, which under-inflates this 94W XL tyre.

When should I replace the tyre based on its 7/32 tread depth?

Replace when tread wears down to the legal minimum of 2/32 inch; the UTQG 420 treadwear rating indicates expected longevity relative to the reference tyre.
