Goodyear fitment guide

Prepare a useful request by bringing the vehicle, tire markings and duty cycle together. Final fitment must be confirmed against the vehicle and product documentation.

Reading tire sidewall information

Your fitment roadmap

01

Identify the vehicle

Record make, model, year and platform. Include VIN or OE reference where appropriate, and note whether the request covers original equipment or replacement use.

02

Read the markings

Capture the complete tire size, load index and speed rating. Check the vehicle placard and any axle-specific requirements rather than relying on an incomplete size.

03

Describe the duty

Provide axle load, road surface, climate, service speed and target market. Add anticipated quantities and timing so that a discussion can address the actual program.

Parameters to compare

Size & construction

Compare the full designation and radial or bias construction in the context of the vehicle and intended use.

Load & speed

Match load index and speed rating to vehicle requirements and actual operating limits.

Check: axle and duty

Tread & environment
