See my drawing at youtube “Projeto tire size”. Projeto means ‘project’ in portugues.

215/65-16 …… 65 is a percentage of the width which is, in this case, 215 (mm). So, a 205/65-16 is at the same time less wide and a little lower because 65% of 205 gives you a smaller number for tire wall height. See my drawing no “Projeto tire size”.

Donk ride owners worst nightmare.

I would love to see him try to explain rim offset.
That would be funny.

Overall hes right, but forgot some things like.
Treadwear number, What The letters such as R,Z,Y mean, And how to tell the born on date of the tire.
