numbers imprinted on the side wall of the tire. Refer to the Tire Identification
chart to decipher the code. For example purposes, the tire size P225/60 R 16 97 T
is used in the chart. An All Season type tire will also have either M + S, M AND
S, or M - S (indicating mud and snow traction) imprinted on the side wall. An
Extra or Light Load marking "XL" or "LL" may also be listed on the sidewall.
The absence of an "XL" or "LL" marking infers a standard load tire.
