How to Read Tire Size
Type of Tire
Take a moment to look at your tire. The first letter there is most likely a P. This indicates the type of tire that you have. The P means you have a P-Metric tire. A P-Metric tire is one that was made in the U.S. in accordance with strict passenger vehicle guidelines. If you have a light truck, your tire will have an LT. This can be found at the start or at the end of the tire size. If there is no letter at the beginning, you have a Euro-Metric tire that may have different load capacities.
Other Markings
Besides the tire size, other markings on your tires are good to know. They are as follows:
- DOT Symbol. When you see this on your tire, it means the tire meets the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
- Tire ID Number. This number tells you where and when the tire was manufactured.
- Air Pressure. The maximum pressure number tells you how much air pressure your tire can hold.
- Tire Pressure Monitoring Light
- Bulging or Tearing Sidewalls
- Worn Down Tread
Our Reviews
Service was excellent, easy in and out. Adam was very helpful and ensured work was done quickly
Adam & all the service staff are easy to deal with. No high pressure service selling, just common sense items.
We appreciated the attentive service for a New Jersey BMW owner. Work was performed as promised.
Excellent service . Inspection and recommendations very helpful. Done on schedule and free car wash at a great price.
I like the low-key vibe and the fact that they do not push doing repairs that are not absolutely necessary.
Steve was great! He was wonderful to work with and everyone at the dealership was professional and nice!
Prompt and friendly shop for service on my 24 Ineos grenadier. Has the B58 engine.
Great communication at every level from sales to instruction. Everyone was responsive to our questions.
Great service Staff is knowledgeable, friendly and provide sensible recommendations. Service is quick and efficient
Excellent service and communication. BMW Stratham listens and addresses all service concerns quickly and efficiently. You are sent videos of your car as well as Text/email evaluations, repair work needed and once approved, completed. I definitely would recommend BMW Stratham for Sales and Service!
We found you to be courteous, timely and good communicators. We will continue to do our business with you!
Paul as always was very friendly and professional. A pleasure. Also, Haley is always helpful even when I don’t have an appointment.
Customer Service with Pawel was exceptional! The technician (Chris) that worked on my vehicle was thorough and explained everything. Thank you Pawel and Chris for a wonderful experience!

Andrew and salesman weee great. Finance manager should be fired for his high pressure outright lies. Terrible time cancelling unwanted extras for his commission. Still trying to cancel one
Everyone always very kind, helpful and knowledgable. Great communication. Dealership is always clean. They are usually on time with car being taken in and ready.
Had a great experience at BMW of Stratham. They completed multiple service requests while I waited, and I was on my way by lunchtime. They even informed me of an open recall item that I wasn’t aware of and took care of that at the same time! That was much more convenient than having to schedule an additional visit. Our service advisor Cory was courteous and professional.
BMW of Stratham went over & an over to accommodate me picking my car up & returning it when the service was done. I highly recommend their service department!
Great service at fair price. Appointment kept on time service updates received while I waited in comfortable waiting area well stocked with complimentary beverages and snacks.
I had an excellent experience with the dealership. My prior BMW x5 was purchased new less than a year ago and was totaled by a reckless driver hitting me. The thought of buying another car was pretty stressful, but I knew to reach out to Scot Murby since I had just worked with him less than a year ago.
I had a few things that were really important to me—the color, the driver-assist features, and the tow hitch—and I didn’t have the time to build something custom. Scot searched the country and was able to find a ... Read More DealerRater - Apr 27, 2026
I am fully satisfied with your service. I always remember my BMW service technician for their extraordinary job
Excellent service and communication between service advisor and the customer. I would recommend this dealership without reservation.
I had to take my X5 in after the engine light came on due to a prior accident and repair down in Florida. I am not a previous customer but they still worked with my insurance and the original repair shop to help me get the issue resolved promptly.
The service staff is exceptional. They go above and beyond to ensure your car is well cared for and serviced properly. I trust their high level of expertise implicitly.
Nice folks and an easy to understand transaction. Great product and test drives to get a good feel for the car.
Adam and Paul are amazing! & are the reason I come to this dealership and this delarship only for repairs.
Great experience overall. All service recommendations reviewed and approved in advance of work. was able to defer some recommendations. Work completed on time and loaner car a great asset.
Great deal ship. Been working with them for years. Thx Cory for helping. Was pleased with all work. Had oil change and re-call on pump. Getting tires in 2 weeks.
once again, I am impressed by the complete professionalism of the staff at BMW Stratham, always courteous and friendly.
Always a good experience when I work with Paul in the Service Center, this time was no different
I had a very positive experience at BMW of Stratham. I stopped by near the end of the day to pick up brake parts I had ordered online, and while I was there, I checked in with the service department to get a quote for installing rear brake pads and rotors.
Even though Adam Webster was about to leave for the day, he still took the time to help me. He let me know about a brake special they were running, which ended up saving me money. Since my brake light was on, I was hoping to get the work ... Read More DealerRater - Apr 14, 2026
The service department is absolutely excellent from check in, to the service done on the car, to checkout. They suggest but never pressure. Everyone is kind, considerate, and helpful. Very professional. If your not having your service done here, your cheating yourself!

Our sales rep Steve Hazzard was exceptional! Really great BMW knowledge and excellent people skills
BMW of Stratham really came through for me when I needed them! I was traveling from Connecticut to Dover and had a tire puncture while on I95. Not only did they arrange for a tire delivery for the very next day, but they also arranged for rides to and from my destination so I could keep my plans. Pawel communicated updates and the whole team went above + beyond to help me!
Very good customer service and efficient repair time. Also provides clear overview of the issues
The service here is always top notch very well organized, and the communication is outstanding very friendly environment
Today I had my second service experience with this dealership and it was exceptional. I’ve been a BMW customer for 30 years and have service at 10-15 different dealerships from Princeton NJ to Austin, TX to Palm Springs, CA and BMW of Stratham is, hands down, the best I’ve experienced.

This was a terrific experience. Very personable staff, attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. I got exactly the car I was looking for, and I'm happy with the whole transaction.

Sovy helped trailer the finance ppw meeting to our needs, explained our options thoroughly and modified the plan to meet our preferences.

I saw a lightly pre owned Porsche GTS online from BMW of Stratham and i immediately called the dealer to purchase the vehicle. I live in California so i’m on the opposite end of the country, but Kevin and Jack did a great job helping me complete the purchase all remotely as i never even stepped foot in the dealership. Thanks to Kevin and Jack. definitely recommend.
Binit was awesome as service manager making it a pleasant experience. Courteous and thoughtful in advising us.
These guys are no joke. A super experience every time I am there. I have bought 4 cars from them. And traded 3. The service had been nothing but great.

I recently visited BMW of Stratham to have all four tires replaced, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of service I received. From the moment I pulled into the service bay, the team was professional, welcoming, and efficient.
They helped me select the perfect set of tires for my BMW, ensuring I maintained that signature driving performance. The work was completed right on schedule, and my car was returned to me spotless. It’s rare to find a service department that balances technical expertise with such high-tier customer care. Special thanks to Binit for keeping me ... Read More DealerRater - Dec 20, 2025

ahead of the estimated date. The delivery was flawless. Susan made sure we had time with Haley to setup our new vehicle and go over any questions we had.
