Deleted User Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 78 is the load rating of the tyre (937 lbs)T is the speed rating (up to 118 MPH)What you want are some 155/13 tyres (normal profile, not low profile) with a T, U, H or V speed rating. You wont get much choice about the load rating, generally, it is not something to worry about unless you do a lot of towing, or want to carry very heavy loads in the car. It's more important on Van, Caravan and Trailer tyres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark spit Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 If there isnt anything to go with the 155 bit then they would be the usual 80 profile, not all tyres have the 80 on as that's the standard I think, anything else needs to be stated IIRCMark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velocita Rosso Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 The 60/70/80 etc wall height represents the percentage of the width of the tyre .So you can formulate different widths and heights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimW Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 look at the tyre again as mine has a similar size as yours in big letters but has the correct size in very small letters on the opposite side of the tyre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
