225/40R19 Tires

What 225/40R19 means

The 225/40R19 marking is three measurements: 225 is the tread width in millimetres, 40 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall height as a percentage of that width — and 19″ is the wheel rim it mounts on.

The numbers for this size

These follow from the size itself: sidewall is 225 × 40%, and the overall diameter is the 19″ rim plus that sidewall twice over. The revolutions figure is what your speedometer is calibrated against — fit a size with a noticeably different diameter and the reading drifts.

How 225/40R19 drives

This is a low-profile fitment. The short sidewall means steering response is sharp and the car feels planted through corners, but there is less rubber to absorb impacts — on Ontario roads that makes pothole season harder on both the tyre and the rim.

On a 19-inch wheel, replacement cost is higher than on a smaller rim, so getting the pressure right and rotating on schedule pays back more here than on a 16-inch fitment.
