* P: This indicates that the tire is designed for passenger vehicles.
* 265: This is the tire's width in millimeters.
* 70: This is the aspect ratio, or the ratio of the tire's height to its width. In this case, the aspect ratio is 70%, meaning that the tire's height is 70% of its width.
* R: This indicates that the tire has a radial construction. This means that the tire's cords are arranged in a radial pattern, rather than in a bias pattern.
* 16: This is the diameter of the wheel that the tire is designed to fit.
So, a tire with the size P265/70 R16 is 265 millimeters wide, has a height that is 70% of its width, is of radial construction, and is designed to fit a 16-inch wheel.
