'V' is the speed rating, meaning 'up to 149 mph or 240 kph'

It's expressed in a number embossed in every tire. - My van tires are - - P215/65R15 95H. - That P means it's a passenger vehicle tire,

- 215 is tread width in millimeters,

- 65 is the aspect ratio, it's a wide oval. ( 75 would mean it's rounder in cross section)

- R means it's a Radial

- 15 means it fits a 15" rim.

- 95 is the load range, (meaning 1,500 pounds per tire)

- H is my speed range (meaning 130 mph)
