What do the three sets of numbers on tire size?
Say you have a tire size 205/60HR16:205 is the section width of the tire in millimeters. Section width is the overall width from sidewall to sidewall. Tread width is typically 90% of the section width. In the above size, the section width is 205mm.The second number is the aspect ratio. This is the percentage ratio of the sidewall height to section width. In the above example, the sidewall height is 60% of the section width.The last number is the wheel diameter in inches. So in the above example, the wheel diameter is 16 inches.The R in the size designation means the tire is a radial tire, as almost all car tires are. The letter in front of the R (H in the above example) is the speed rating of the tire. The speed rating is the maximum speed the manufacturer recommends for the tire.

Can you drive with a tire bubble?
Can you? Sure you can, but I would not recommend it. Air is leaking through the plies of the tire and bulging the sidewall. This has caused the sidewall to separate from the carcass of the tire. This will eventually leak to complete separation of the sidewall and tread as time goes on. My advice is to replace any tire with a bubble on the sidewall. This is a defective tire that you do not want to drive at highway speed on and risk an accident. I built tires at a General Tire plant so I have knowledge of how they are built and I would not drive on this tire.
