145/60 R13 Tyres

145/60 R13 tyres are produced with small passenger cars in mind. The size of the tyre can be seen on its sidewall where it is clearly provided in a form of a string of signs. The first number informs about the tread width of the tyre, so in the case of the 145/60 R13 tyre it is 145 mm. The second number equals the tyre profile's height and its percentage ratio to the tyre's tread width (60% out of the 145 mm of tread width). The "R" in the tyre's size denotes its radial construction. The number 13 in the 145/60 R13 tyre constitutes the diameter of the wheel rim (provided in inches) on which the tyre should be installed.
