A good fit if you
- Cold weather, snow, and ice — the conditions this tire is specifically engineered for.
- Drivers who want the best cold-weather performance and won’t compromise with all-seasons.
- Factory fitments or vehicles that specifically require XL-rated tires.
Think twice if you need
- Summer use — winter compound softens too much in heat, wearing faster and handling worse.

235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 Winter
Carries the 3PMSF symbol — tested and rated for severe snow service. Can be studded where local regulations allow.
What these tire specs mean
- Load index 107 means each tire can carry up to 975 kg. Check your door jamb placard — the tire needs to meet or beat the load rating your manufacturer specifies.
- Speed rating T is the maximum sustained speed this tire is designed to handle under proper conditions. That works out to 190 km/h under correct load and inflation — not a target, just the rated ceiling.
- Winter tires use a softer compound that stays pliable in cold temperatures, where all-season rubber starts to harden. They carry the 3PMS symbol and meet Quebec’s winter tire mandate.
- XL means Extra Load. These tires run at higher inflation pressures and handle more weight than a standard-load tire of the same size. If your vehicle’s factory spec calls for XL, that’s what you need — swapping to standard load can affect ride, handling, and safety.
- Studdable means the tire has pre-formed stud holes and can accept metal studs where permitted. Ontario bans studs on most public roads. Quebec allows them seasonally — typically October 15 to May 1. Check current provincial rules before installation.
- 3PMS stands for Three Peak Mountain Snowflake — a symbol earned by meeting specific severe snow traction standards in testing. It is the mark Quebec requires for winter tire compliance.
- Vehicle type indicates the service category this tire is built for — passenger car, light truck, commercial, or other. Matching the right category matters for load capacity, handling, and safety.
Where this tire fits in
The 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 is a winter tire, built around a 235 mm section width for a 18-inch wheel.
In practical terms, this size gives you a 60-series sidewall of about 141 mm paired with a 18-inch wheel diameter — confirm this against your current tire’s sidewall marking before ordering.
Worth noting on the spec side: this tire carries 3PMS certification for severe snow service, a studdable design where permitted, an XL extra load rating, load index 107 and speed rating T (~190 km/h).
About the 235/60R18 tire size
The 235/60R18 breaks down into three numbers:
- 235 — tread width in millimetres, measured across the contact patch
- 60 — sidewall height as a percentage of the tread width (roughly 141 mm of rubber between road and rim)
- R18 — radial construction, for a 18-inch wheel
The 235/60R18 size is commonly found on mid size SUVs, crossovers, and sport sedans. Replacing a set? The full size marking is on your current tire’s sidewall — confirm width, profile, and rim diameter all match before you order.
What stands out — Laufenn LW71 235/60R18
- Carries the 3PMSF symbol — tested and rated for severe snow traction.
- Can accept studs where permitted — check local regulations before installation.
- XL (Extra Load) rated — handles higher inflation pressures and heavier loads than a standard-load equivalent.

Ontario & Quebec — winter tire rules
In Quebec, winter tires are mandatory on all passenger vehicles from December 1 to March 15 — it’s the law under the Highway Safety Code, not a suggestion. In Ontario, they’re strongly recommended through the cold months, and most insurance providers give you a premium discount when you run them. The 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 is a Winter tire with the 3PMSF symbol, so it qualifies for Quebec’s winter mandate.

Common questions — 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 Winter
What does the 235/60R18 tire size mean?
Break it down and 235/60R18 tells you three things: the tread is 235 mm wide, the sidewall stands at 60% of that — about 141 mm of rubber between road and rim — and it fits a 18-inch wheel. You’ll find this size most often on mid size SUVs, crossovers, and sport sedans.
Is the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 a Winter tire?
Yes — the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 is categorized as a Winter tire. In Quebec, that’s the law — mandatory from December 1 to March 15 under the Highway Safety Code. In Ontario it’s strongly recommended, and most insurance providers offer a premium discount when you run dedicated winter rubber.
What does the 107T rating mean on the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71?
The 107T on the Laufenn LW71 breaks into two numbers: load index 107, meaning each tire carries up to 975 kg, rated to approximately 190 km/h; and speed rating T, rated to 190 km/h under proper load and inflation. Your door jamb placard lists the minimum ratings your vehicle requires — match or exceed both.
Is the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 3PMS rated?
Yes — like all proper winter tires, the Laufenn LW71 carries the 3PMSF symbol. It’s been tested for severe snow traction and meets Quebec’s winter tire mandate.
Is the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 studdable?
Yes — the Laufenn LW71 can accept studs where local rules allow. Quebec permits them seasonally (typically October 15 to May 1). Ontario bans them on most public roads. Check current provincial regulations before installation.
Does the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 support run flat driving?
No — the Laufenn LW71 is a standard tire, not a run flat. If your vehicle came equipped with run flats, your replacement set needs to be run flat-capable too.
Is the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 an XL (extra load) tire?
Yes — the Laufenn LW71 is XL rated. It’s designed for higher inflation pressures and greater load capacity than a standard-load tire of the same size. If your current tires are XL, your replacement should be too.
What does speed rating T mean on the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71?
Speed rating T on the Laufenn LW71 corresponds to a maximum sustained speed of 190 km/h under proper load and inflation. In practice, this tells you the performance category the tire is built for — not a number to chase on public roads.
Can I order the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 with delivery to Ontario or Quebec?
Yes — we ship the 235/60R18 Laufenn LW71 across Ontario and Quebec. Free shipping • 1–3 business days (Ontario and Quebec).
