How to read a commercial truck tire size

Metric sizes like 295/75R22.5 and conventional sizes like 11R22.5 describe different sections and aspects. Copy the full string from the sidewall.

Include ply rating and whether the tire is steer, drive, trailer, or all-position. That keeps the quote aligned with what is on the truck today.

When to call roadside instead of limping to a shop

A slow leak at a safe yard is a scheduled job. A blowout on the shoulder is a roadside call.

Have the mile marker or a pin-drop, the size, and which axle failed. We confirm whether the stop is serviceable and whether the tire is in stock before dispatch.
