Did you know ...?
245/50 R20 doesn't belong to the most popular dimensions for summer tyres - there are 8 tyre models available, which can be compared to 160/70 R17, 205/40 R17, 195/40 R17. Let's break down the sizing - 50 is height of the tyre, which is calculated as 50% of the tyre width (245mm), which means the sidewall height has 122.5 mm. The wheel diameter is R20, which means it fits to a 20 inch/508mm diameter wheel. The total circumference of the tyre is 2365.62 mm, which is very similar to 275/40 R21(2366.88 mm), 265/70 R15(2362.48 mm), 245/60 R18(2359.96 mm), 275/45 R20(2373.47 mm), 245/65 R17(2357.14 mm), 245/70 R16(2354.31 mm), 315/30 R22(2349.28 mm). There are multiple speed indexes available for summer tyres in 245/50 R20: H(210km/h), V(240km/h), W(270km/h). The same goes for weight indexes: 102, 105.
