yeah, that's about right. The 60 is the percentage of the width, and it
refers to the hieght

example

225/50R15 is 225 wide and 112.5 side wall height-

225 = 225 mm wide

50 = 50 percent of that is the height (112.5mm of sidewall height)

15 = wheel diameter

275 = 275 mm wide

60 = aspect ratio something like percentage of width that the height is

15 = 15 inches in diameter

Think I'm close
