If the complete tyre size is absent from the chart for a snow-sock product, do not treat the nearest-looking entry as a match. First check the information you are using, then ask for a product-specific answer.
Check the two identities
Confirm the tyre code directly from the sidewall and confirm the exact series and product code on the snow-sock listing. A chart for another series or an old saved image may explain the apparent gap. Keep the original evidence instead of editing a number until the search returns a result.
Distinguish absence from a recommendation
A missing entry does not tell you which alternative, if any, is appropriate. Similar dimensions or a shared wheel diameter are not a manufacturer’s compatibility confirmation. Do not use a successful fitting video for another tyre as a substitute for a listed application.
Send a focused question
Provide the full tyre code, vehicle and model year, relevant handbook restriction and the precise product being considered. Ask whether a current listed product is available for that combination. A clear “not confirmed” answer is more useful than an assumed size that cannot be defended.
- Verify the tyre code.
- Verify the chart and series.
- Request an exact confirmation.
Only move from the enquiry to a purchase when the compatibility question has a clear answer. If it remains unresolved, keep the product off the shortlist rather than improvising a fit.
