How to Read 255/50 R21

255/50 R21 tyres are SUV tyres and come as standard on the BMW iX. The numbers on the tyre mean the following. The 255 means the tyre is 255mm wide. The 50 refers to the aspect ratio. Therefore, the height of the sidewall is 50% of 255mm, which is 128mm. R21 means the tyre is radial with a rim diameter of 21 inches. Therefore, the overall diameter is 788mm. The iX uses the 128mm sidewall with an XL (extra load) rating. At Tyres.co.uk, we sell 255/50 R21 tyres, including XL versions.
