It's also where you'll find all sorts of useful information, such as the size and speed rating (eg: 195/65R15 91H or 205/55ZR16).\r\rMost tyres have the brand name at the top and a little logo in a circle down near the valve stem. If it's not there, you can usually find it stamped into the side of the tyre, or sometimes on its centre cap. You'll also find the tyre width (from sidewall to sidewall) and aspect ratio (height vs width) down there. \r\rFor example, 195/62R15 has a width of 195mm and an aspect ratio of 62%. Higher numbers indicate more of an upright profile, taller in height than they are wide. The opposite is true for low numbers. These all come together to give your tyre's handling characteristic, known as the 'profile'.\r\rYou must be careful before fitting tyres to your vehicle to check the correct category. The role of tyre sidewall is important regardless of the tire size and wheel diameter.\r\rYou must keep a tab on the tread wear indicators to keep your tyres in good shape and condition. It is also recommended to read the service description for tyre pressure information, maximum inflation pressure, and maximum carrying capacity. \r\rYou can avoid tyre failure by properly inspecting your tyres for disappearing tread grooves and recommended tyre pressure.\r\rNowadays, radial ply construction tyres are manufactured to provide greater stability, performance and efficiency.\r\rIt is also recommended to check critical vehicle components to improve the performance of your vehicle\r","bulletData":null,"numberedListData":null,"columnData":null,"imageCaption_1":null,"imageCaption_2":null,"imageURL_1":null,"imageURL_2":null,"numberOfImages":null,"numberOfColumns":null},{"__typename":"SectionData","type":"Text","headingTag":"h2","heading":"What is meant by tyre profile?","text":"Now that you know what sidewall measurements mean, it's not hard to work out how different sidewalls react in different situations. A large sidewall will be soft and absorb bumps well, but with bad side-to-side stability. Smaller sidewalls will be stiffer, but less comfortable and more likely to twitch in quick directional changes - like when you're drifting.\r\rThe sidewall design also influences the way that the tyre will react when it's moving. For example, a diagonal-lug pattern acts like little 'fins' that grip into the road surface to give better cornering stability at speed. \r\rOn the other hand, straight-lug tyres are designed for good straight-line braking performance with high levels of comfort - but will lack grip at speed because there's no central locking mechanism to hold them together under load. The passenger car tyre is different from other types of vehicle tyres. \r\rYou must also consider reading vehicle's manufacturer documentation and vehicle owner's manual to further increase the performance of your vehicle. Apparently, the types and quality of tyres seems a simple process but there are many things to consider before buying a one for your vehicle.\r\rYou must check maximum speed rating, higher speed rating, maximum speed limit, load limits, load and speed capacity before making a purchase.

It refers to any set of tyres with those three specific markings.\r\rThe first number tells the width of the tyre, in millimetres \r\rAspect ratio is an indication of how \"upright\" or \"aggressive\" a tyre's profile is. The lower the number, the more upright it is, so 70% would be very 'squat' and have good straight-line stability but poor cornering grip at speed. \r\rHigher numbers are more performance-orientated, with stiff sidewalls for better response to steering input. A 55% rating is quite common among standard road tyres and 45% at the lowest end will give you really sharp handling if your car can handle them.\r\rWhen you get above 80% aspect ratio, you're looking at either snow or off-road tyres. Very high profile tyres (100% or more) are only found on 4x4s, where ground clearance is important.

At 95km/h you hit 97S, at 100km/h it's 109R and at 110km/h you're looking at 112V to 114V.\r\rTo make this even more confusing, some brands will have different speed ratings for tyres in different sizes or widths. You could have a set of G78-14 tyres that are rated up to 150 km/h but another manufacturer may rate them differently depending on their overall size.\r\rAlso note that speed rating isn't just about speed - it's also an indication of how much load your tyre can carry when inflated to its maximum pressure. So if your car's manual says that your tyres should be inflated to up to 1.4 bar (which you'll find written on the sidewall as something like: \"Max Pressure 1.4BAR\"), and they're a 110SR-rated tyre, then they can carry a maximum load of 1320kg at that pressure \r\rIf you inflate them to their maimum and put more than that weight in the boot, there's a good chance they'll fail at some point.

These give way to lots of natural light while still providing some privacy if need be. You'll want to avoid overly heavy or stiff fabrics that might get tangled up on the brackets underneath your pelmet.

It is more decorative and provides a base for other elements to rest upon. It may also provide an element of structural support, although this is unlikely in most cases.\r\rCornices are often found on the top of larger windows where they will span between two different window frames creating one continuous visual divider between rooms. Cornices are not always necessary but are often used to make the space look bigger than it actually is.
