What is the height difference between 65 and 70 tires?
The series number in a tire-numbering system refers to the aspect ratio of the tire’s sidewall height to its width. A series 65 tire’s height is 65 percent of its width, a series 70 tire’s height is 70 percent of its width and so on. These differences in height affect both performance and safety issues while driving.
