| From Discount Tire's website, as presented. "Aspect Ratio
This is also known as the Section Height. This is figured as a percentage of the section width. A tire size of 205/60R15 would have a section width of 205 millimeters and a section height of 60 percent of 205 millimeters." The aspect ratio tells the height of the tire with respect to the weight. A 225/50 and 225/45 tire are both 225mm wide, but the /50 tire has a sidewall that is 50% of 225, and the /45 tire has a sidewall that is 45% of 225.
