		 175/75R14 
 
Let's break this down a bit, shall we? 
 
175 = The tire tread. This is how much tire is in contact with the road, and in this case it is 175 mm. 
 
75 = The "Profile" of the tire. As you know a profile in any case is a side view. So when looking at the tire from the side you would measure the amount of rubber that you see. 75 mm. 
 
R = Radial 
 
14 = Diameter of the entire tire from the side. 
 
No more false claims please?
