A good fit if you

  • Everyday driving in moderate conditions — commuting, highway, light rain, mild temperatures.
  • Drivers who already run a dedicated winter set for Quebec’s cold months.

Think twice if you need

  • Quebec winter compliance — a standard all-season without the 3PMS symbol doesn’t satisfy the December to March mandate.

Quick Specs

  • Size: 245/50R16
  • Brand / Model: Falken Ziex ZE960 AS
  • Season: All Season
  • Vehicle Type: Passenger
  • Load / Speed: 97W (Load index 97 supports up to 730 kg per tire; speed rating W rated up to 270 km/h)
  • Certifications: —
  • Delivery (Ontario & Quebec): Free shipping • 1–3 business days (Ontario and Quebec)

What these tire specs mean

  • Load index 97 means each tire can carry up to 730 kg. Check your door jamb placard — the tire needs to meet or beat the load rating your manufacturer specifies.
  • Speed rating W is the maximum sustained speed this tire is designed to handle under proper conditions. That works out to 270 km/h under correct load and inflation — not a target, just the rated ceiling.
  • UTQG 540 A A is a manufacturer-assigned grade for treadwear, traction, and temperature performance. Useful for comparing within the same brand — but it’s not a mileage guarantee, and ratings aren’t standardized across manufacturers.
  • All Season tires handle mild year-round conditions well, but they’re not winter tires. In Quebec, a standard all-season doesn’t satisfy the mandatory winter tire requirement unless it specifically carries the 3PMS symbol.
  • 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.
  • Warranty coverage is backed by the manufacturer and applies under normal use — regular rotations, correct inflation, and proper alignment. Keep maintenance records if you ever need to make a claim.

Where this tire fits in

In practical terms, this size gives you a 50-series sidewall of about 123 mm paired with a 16-inch wheel diameter — confirm this against your current tire’s sidewall marking before ordering.

About the 245/50R16 tire size

  • 245 — tread width in millimetres, measured across the contact patch
  • 50 — sidewall height as a percentage of the tread width (roughly 123 mm of rubber between road and rim)
  • R16 — radial construction, for a 16-inch wheel

The 245/50R16 size is commonly found on mid size sedans and light trucks. 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 — Falken Ziex ZE960 AS 245/50R16

  • UTQG 540 A A — manufacturer-assigned treadwear, traction, and temperature grades. Useful for comparing within the same brand, but not a mileage guarantee.
  • Service description 97W: load index 97 means each tire carries up to 730 kg, speed rating W is rated to 270 km/h.
  • 245/50R16 mounts on a 16-inch wheel.
  • Season: All Season.
Quebec winter tire mandate — all-season note

Quebec mandates winter tires from December 1 to March 15. The 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS is an all season tire — and without the 3PMS symbol, a standard all-season does not satisfy Quebec’s mandatory winter tire rule. If you drive in Quebec between December and March, a dedicated winter or all-weather tire is the right call. requirement unless they carry the 3PMS symbol. Consider a dedicated winter or all weather tire for Quebec driving.

Common questions — 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS All Season

What does the 245/50R16 tire size mean?

Break it down and 245/50R16 tells you three things: the tread is 245 mm wide, the sidewall stands at 50% of that — about 123 mm of rubber between road and rim — and it fits a 16-inch wheel. You’ll find this size most often on mid size sedans and light trucks.

Is the 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS an All Season tire?

Yes — the 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS is categorized as an All Season tire. Standard all-season tires handle mild year-round conditions but don’t meet Quebec’s mandatory winter tire requirement on their own. If you drive in Quebec between December and March, look at a dedicated winter or all-weather tire that carries the 3PMS symbol.

What does the 97W rating mean on the 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS?

The 97W on the Falken Ziex ZE960 AS breaks into two numbers: load index 97, meaning each tire carries up to 730 kg, rated to approximately 270 km/h; and speed rating W, rated to 270 km/h under proper load and inflation. Your door jamb placard lists the minimum ratings your vehicle requires — match or exceed both.

Is the 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS 3PMS rated?

No — the Falken Ziex ZE960 AS doesn’t carry the 3PMS symbol. If Quebec winter compliance or severe snow traction is a priority, you’d want a tire that does.

Is the 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS studdable?

Studdable status is not confirmed for this tire. Reach out and we’ll check the manufacturer specs for you.

Does the 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS support run flat driving?

No — the Falken Ziex ZE960 AS 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 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS an XL (extra load) tire?

No — the Falken Ziex ZE960 AS is a standard load tire, not XL. Check your vehicle door placard or current tires to confirm what’s required before ordering.

What does speed rating W mean on the 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS?

Speed rating W on the Falken Ziex ZE960 AS corresponds to a maximum sustained speed of 270 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 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS with delivery to Ontario or Quebec?

Yes — we ship the 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS across Ontario and Quebec. Free shipping • 1–3 business days (Ontario and Quebec).

Why buy the 245/50R16 Falken Ziex ZE960 AS from XYZTires if another tire looks cheaper?

A lower sticker price is worth comparing, but the full picture includes shipping cost, delivery timeline, whether it’s actually in stock, and whether the tire category is right for how you drive. We focus on making those details clear upfront — so you can compare real delivered value, not just the first number you see.
