My brother is driving a 2005 Tundra 4x4 with wide tires...the truck came with Pirelli # 29545zr20110W...the Balado Tire Co in Miami is telling him that they have the same tire in stock, except at the end of the number their tire has a "B" where his has a "W". Of course they want to sell him the tires...since he is only replacing 2 tires, he wants to be sure that there is no conflict between the "W" and the "B"...since the tires are $200 each !! Anyone know about this. thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Welcome to YotaTech... can you explain that a little better

 

i searched around and found no tire with those dimensions with a B at the end. I found V, Y, W and even Q, but no B.

by the way, those numbers split up into dimensions and model like: 295 45zr 20 110W and such

 

the "w" on the end is the speed rating, there is no "B" rated tire in that size. Sense it is a low profile tire is is going to have a higher speed rating. that tire company doesnt know what they are talking about.\
