What 26x12.00-16 means

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

  • 26Overall diameterThe tire stands about 26 inches tall when inflated and unloaded.
  • 12.00Section widthAbout 12 inches across the widest part of the tire.
  • –ConstructionBias-ply. The plies run diagonally, which gives a stiff, tough sidewall.
  • 16Wheel diameterFits a 16-inch wheel. This is the number that has to match your rim exactly.

Size is only half the answer

Two 26x12.00-16 tires can be built for very different jobs. Tread decides most of it: a turf tread protects the lawn, a lug or bar tread digs in, and a sawtooth or stud tread is for snowblowers and loose ground. Ply rating matters too if the machine carries a load. Tell us the machine and what it does and we'll match it.
