What 245/70R19.5 means

Every number on the sidewall is telling you something. Here's this one, decoded:

  • 245Section width245 mm (about 9.6 in) across the widest part of the tire.
  • 70Aspect ratioThe sidewall height is 70% of the section width. A lower number means a shorter sidewall.
  • RConstructionRadial. The body plies run across the tire. Radials generally run cooler at highway speed and wear more evenly.
  • 19.5Wheel diameterFits a 19.5-inch wheel. This is the number that has to match your rim exactly.

Size is only half the answer

Two 245/70R19.5 tires can be built for very different work. Ply rating or load index sets how much each tire carries, and the tread code sets the job: R-1 and R-1W for drive traction, F-2 for front steering, I-1 for implements and wagons. Tell us the tractor or implement and how it's used, and we'll match the tire to it.

We also carry 245/70R19.5 as commercial truck tires. Same numbers, different build. Tell us what it's going on and we'll steer you to the right one.

245/70R19.5 questions, answered

245: 245 mm (about 9.6 in) across the widest part of the tire. 70: The sidewall height is 70% of the section width. A lower number means a shorter sidewall. R: Radial. The body plies run across the tire. Radials generally run cooler at highway speed and wear more evenly. 19.5: Fits a 19.5-inch wheel. This is the number that has to match your rim exactly. Altogether that works out to roughly 33 inches of overall diameter.

Many farm sizes are made both ways. Radials put more tread on the ground, ride smoother and are easier on the soil; bias tires cost less and shrug off stubble and sidewall knocks. Equivalent bias and radial sizes are close in height but not identical, so tell us if you're mixing them on one axle or on a front-wheel-assist tractor and we'll check it works.

It's made as both. 245/70R19.5 is a size, not a build. The same numbers are produced in constructions aimed at different jobs, with different load ranges and tread designs. We carry it on the agricultural & farm side and the commercial & fleet side, so tell us what it's going on and we'll point you at the right one. Call (320) 363-7246 if you're not sure which you need.

Stock moves, so the honest answer is to check. Send us the size through the availability request on this page or call (320) 363-7246. We'll tell you what we have on the shelf, what load ranges are available and how fast we can get anything we'd need to order.
