Deep breath. Zen. We'll find your tires.
Just loosen a filter or two, and the right set might appear.
SUV tires and crossover tires are tires sized and load-rated for sport utility vehicles (SUVs) and crossover utility vehicles (CUVs), which weigh more and sit higher than sedans. SUV tires carry higher load indexes than sedan tires: a common sedan size, 235/45R18 94V, is rated for 1,477 lb per tire, while a common SUV size, 245/60R18 105H, is rated for 2,039 lb per tire.
Crossover tires fit unibody crossovers such as the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V and Mazda CX-5, which ride on car-based platforms and use passenger-construction tires. Crossover tires are commonly 17 to 19 inches, such as 225/65R17 on base RAV4 and CX-5 trims, and most crossover owners buy all-season touring or all-weather tires. Body-on-frame SUVs such as the Chevrolet Tahoe and Toyota 4Runner use larger, heavier SUV tires.
SUV tires need a load index equal to or higher than the load index on the door-jamb placard. Load indexes common on SUVs: 103 = 1,929 lb, 105 = 2,039 lb, 107 = 2,149 lb, 110 = 2,337 lb per tire.
SUV tires need to be XL when the original tires were XL, because a standard-load tire in the same size carries less weight. XL is common in SUV sizes on 19- to 22-inch wheels, such as 255/50R20 109V XL.
The best SUV and crossover tires are the type that matches where the vehicle drives most:
Most SUVs and crossovers do not need LT (light truck) tires. An SUV needs LT tires only when its door-jamb placard lists an LT size, such as LT315/70R17 on the Ford Bronco with the Sasquatch package, or when the SUV tows near its rated maximum.
Affordable SUV and crossover tires come from comparing price per tire against the treadwear warranty: a $150 tire warranted for 70,000 miles costs less per mile than a $110 tire warranted for 40,000 miles. Budget, mid-range and premium brands sell SUV tires in the same sizes and load indexes, so the placard size, load index and speed rating stay fixed whatever the price.
An all-wheel-drive (AWD) SUV needs all four tires replaced together, unless the tread-depth difference stays within the limit in the owner's manual, commonly 2/32 to 4/32 in.
SUV and crossover owners order by the size and load index on the door-jamb placard, with XL where the original tires were XL. Search your SUV or crossover on NeoTires to see the SUV tires for sale in its size, compare them by treadwear warranty and price, and put the set of four in the cart.
