YOKOHAMA 235/65/R17

The Yokohama 235/65/R17 refers to a specific tire model produced by Yokohama, a well-known tire manufacturer. The numbers and letters in the sequence represent specific tire dimensions and characteristics:

1. 235: This number indicates the tire's width in millimeters, measured from sidewall to sidewall. In this case, the tire is 235 mm wide.
2. 65: This number is the aspect ratio, which represents the height of the tire's sidewall as a percentage of the tire's width. An aspect ratio of 65 means the sidewall height is 65% of the tire's width.
3. R: This letter stands for "Radial," indicating the tire's construction type. Most modern tires are radial, meaning the internal ply cords are arranged in a radial direction (at 90 degrees to the direction of travel).
4. 17: This number represents the diameter of the wheel (rim) that the tire is designed to fit, measured in inches. In this case, the tire fits a 17-inch wheel.
