The 265/50R19 is a common tire size for SUVs and crossovers such as Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Ford Explorer.
With a 132.5 mm sidewall (50% aspect ratio), this tire offers a balanced blend of ride comfort and handling precision — versatile for both city driving and spirited cornering.
Compared to the baseline 245/40R19, this tire's overall diameter differs by +10.2% — a speedometer calibrated for 245/40R19 would read 90.8 km/h at an actual 100 km/h.
OE on the Porsche Cayenne (92A, 2010-2018) Turbo (factory size on 8.5J×19), BMW X5 (F15) M-Sport, BMW X5 (G05) and Audi Q7 (4L 2005-2015). Load index 110V or 114W reinforced. Performance-SUV size with both summer and all-season replacement options.
Mainstream sedan sizes balance compound longevity against light all-season handling. When replacing, match the OE speed rating (H or V on most trims) — installing a lower rating voids many manufacturer load-test certifications and is illegal on autobahn-rated vehicles. Wheel-well clearance is rarely a concern at this rim diameter; speedometer drift across factory alternatives stays well inside the ±3% legal window.
