Tire sizes are molded on the sidewall. Refer to the tire fitment
tables below. Rim size and contour are cast or stamped into
the exterior surface of the rim.
Example: T19 x 2.15 MT DOT. "T" indicates that the rim con-
forms to Tire and Rim Association standards. The "19" is the
normal diameter of the rim in inches, measured at the bead
seat diameter. The "2.15" is the width of the bead seat meas-
ured in inches. "MT" designates the rim contour. "DOT" means
that the rim meets Department of Transportation Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards.
