The Achilles Desert Hawk HT 2 is a highway terrain tire built for SUVs, light trucks, and crossovers that spend most of their time on paved roads.

Offered in a range that fits wheels from 16 to 19 inches in diameter, the Desert Hawk HT 2 spans a variety of common SUV and light-truck applications. Depending on the size you choose, this line carries different load and speed ratings, giving you options whether you prioritize higher speed capability or a stronger load-carrying build for heavier vehicles.

What 215/65R16 means

In the size 215/65R16, 215 is the section width in millimeters (8.46 in), 65 is the aspect ratio — the sidewall stands 65% as tall as the tire is wide, or 139.8 mm (5.50 in) — R denotes radial construction, and 16 is the wheel diameter in inches. That works out to an overall diameter of about 27.00 inches, turning roughly 747 revolutions per mile. Overall diameter is what matters for speedometer accuracy and clearance when you change sizes, so compare it — not just the width — against your current tire.
