README

Tyres of the same size may have different markings. The most famous is American (inch 31x10.5R16) and European(Metric).

Inch size specifies the height and width of the tire in inches and the inch size of the disk. For example 31x10.5R16.

In the second case the marking includes a width in millimeters, the height of the profile of the tire in percent inch disk size: 265/75R16

In addition, a number of manufacturers mark light-truck, truck and pneumatic tires in a special way. So for example, in Interco company width and height are swapped for som tires (16x35-16 instead of the 35x16-16 Bogger tire B-119). A number of pneumatic wheels are marked with metric units, but do not indicate the profile: 1300x700-24 Some tires do not contain explicit information about the size of the marking for example Q78-15 or 160m.

This library helps to work with such a variety of markings. It can be used to create tire calculators or search the database of tires.

Installation

The Tyre size parser can be installed with Composer. Run this command:

    composer require gan4x4/tyresize
