How to read the stamped size
295/60R20 is a metric size: width in millimetres, aspect ratio as a percent of that width, then the rim diameter in inches after the R. The how to read tire size page walks the whole sidewall, including load index and speed rating, which this page does not use.
Diameter and width tell you whether a size is in the same family as what you have. They do not tell you whether 295/60R20 clears your fenders, matches your wheel width, or is load-rated for the vehicle. Check the door-jamb sticker and the wheel well before you buy.
Speedometer and revs
At 594 revolutions per mile, a trip computer calibrated for 295/60R20 is reading true only while this diameter is on the truck. A taller replacement under-reads speed and distance by the same percent the diameter grew. A shorter one over-reads. The comparison calculator puts a second size next to 295/60R20 and shows the error at 60 mph.
