Plus
sizing for looks and performance!
Plus
wheel and tire sizing has become one of the most popular performance-oriented
modifications enthusiasts make. The PLUS refers tothe number
of inches added to the stock wheel diameter specification when
choosing replacement wheels.
Plus Zero
Plus Zero sizing increases the
section width and lowers the aspect ratio, while retaining the
wheel diameter. This replacement tire increases the contact
area and lowers the tread profile for improved traction and
quicker response.
Plus One
Plus One sizing mounts tires with an increased section width and
a lower aspect ratio on wheels of a wider diameter. A Plus One
fitment for a car with 13-inch original equipment wheels would
use 14-inch wheels.
As a
general rule of thumb, Plus One Sizing:
- Increases section width by
10 mm.
- Decreases aspect ratio by 10
points.
- Increases rim diameter by 1
inch.
Always consult your Toyo tire dealer
when changing the size of tires on your vehicle, and your dealer
will have additional information for Plus Sizing ABS-equipped
vehicles.
Note that when plus sizing in almost ALL cases
your required air pressure will change. As the sidewall becomes
smaller, the air chamber is reduced in size. An air pressure adjustment
is necessary to ensure there is sufficient air to safely operate
your vehicle and or to prevent irregular wear issues that are common
to under inflated tires. Be sure to consult with your Toyo tire
professional to ensure you have the right size for your vehicle
and your air pressure has been adjusted accordingly.
