Note that an alternative tire will usually be at least as wide as the tire it is replacing. The first column "TIRE SIZE" contains the size of the original flat or worn tire needing replacement. These tire sizes are listed by wheel diameter, profile (aspect ratio), then width.

The next four columns indicate the potential sizes of replacement tires in descending order of desirability. Remember that replacement tires should generally be of the same exact size as the original tires they are replacing. If a different size must be utilized, try to employ the 1st or 2nd choices listed.
