How to read a Sportage tire size

Take 235/60R18, the size on the Sportage EX and SX, as an example:

235

The tire is 235 millimeters wide.

60

The sidewall height is 60 percent of the width.

R

Radial construction.

18

It fits an 18-inch wheel.

All three Sportage sizes share the same 235 mm width; the sidewall gets shorter as the wheel gets larger.
