205/50R17 Antares Polymax 4S All Weather

Carries the 3PMSF symbol — tested and rated for severe snow service.

What these tire specs mean

  • Load index 93 means each tire can carry up to 650 kg. Check your door jamb placard — the tire needs to meet or beat the load rating your manufacturer specifies.
  • Speed rating V is the maximum sustained speed this tire is designed to handle under proper conditions. That works out to 240 km/h under correct load and inflation — not a target, just the rated ceiling.
  • All Weather tires are built for year-round use — warm months and cold. They carry the 3PMS symbol, which means they qualify under Quebec’s mandatory winter tire law.
  • 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 205/50R17 Antares Polymax 4S is a all weather tire, built around a 205 mm section width for a 17-inch wheel.

In practical terms, this size gives you a 50-series sidewall of about 103 mm paired with a 17-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, load index 93 and speed rating V (~240 km/h).

About the 205/50R17 tire size

The 205/50R17 breaks down into three numbers:

  • 205 — tread width in millimetres, measured across the contact patch
  • 50 — sidewall height as a percentage of the tread width (roughly 103 mm of rubber between road and rim)
  • R17 — radial construction, for a 17-inch wheel

The 205/50R17 size is commonly found on mid size sedans and crossovers. 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.

Is the 205/50R17 Antares Polymax 4S an All Weather tire?

The 93V on the Antares Polymax 4S breaks into two numbers: load index 93, meaning each tire carries up to 650 kg, rated to approximately 240 km/h; and speed rating V, rated to 240 km/h under proper load and inflation. Your door jamb placard lists the minimum ratings your vehicle requires — match or exceed both.

Is the 205/50R17 Antares Polymax 4S 3PMS rated?
