Where do I find my tire size on the sidewall?
Where to look
Your tire size is printed on the sidewall of the tire. TireScout shows you exactly where to look.
What you can do once you have it
Type your tire size into TireScout and see live marketplace listings side by side.
Understanding a quote
Paste the shop's quote or the tire's specs into TireScout to get a decode of the following:
- UTQG treadwear
- Warranty miles
- DOT date
- Price per mile
Why price per mile matters
Price per mile is the number that can make a $160 tire cheaper than a $95 tire, according to TireScout.
What we don't know
This guide only uses the facts TireScout gives us. We don't have details on how each sidewall code is structured, or what counts as a good treadwear number. Confirm these details with your tire shop or the manufacturer.
Not advice
This page is not legal, medical, or tax advice. Check with a professional, and confirm details with the tire shop, manufacturer, or the appropriate agency before you buy.
What to do next
Use the free TireScout tool. Type in your tire size, or paste your shop's quote or the tire's specs. The tool reads your own numbers to show you the decode and price per mile, in English or Spanish.
