Reifenkombination

A Reifenkombination refers to the specific arrangement of tires on a vehicle's wheels. This arrangement can vary depending on the vehicle's type and intended use. For passenger cars, the most common Reifenkombination is 205/55 R16, which indicates a tire with a width of 205 millimeters, an aspect ratio of 55 (meaning the tire's height is 55% of its width), and a rim diameter of 16 inches. This combination is typically used for front and rear tires.

In the context of off-road vehicles or SUVs, a common Reifenkombination might be 245/70 R17, which suggests a wider tire (245 millimeters) with a higher aspect ratio (70), and a larger rim diameter (17 inches). This combination is often used for all-wheel-drive vehicles to provide better traction and stability in rough terrain.

For commercial vehicles, the Reifenkombination can vary widely depending on the vehicle's purpose. For example, a delivery truck might use a combination like 295/80 R22.5, which indicates an extremely wide tire (295 millimeters) with a high aspect ratio (80), and a very large rim diameter (22.5 inches). This combination is designed to distribute the vehicle's weight more evenly and provide better stability during long hauls.

The choice of Reifenkombination is crucial for a vehicle's performance, handling, and safety. It is important to select a combination that is appropriate for the vehicle's intended use and the driving conditions it will encounter.
