1. Carlisle Sport Trail: This refers to the brand and model of the tire. Carlisle is a well-known manufacturer of tires and other rubber products.
2. 20.5/8-10: This is the tire size designation. It consists of three numbers separated by hyphens. In this case, it means:
   • 20.5: The tire's overall diameter is approximately 20.5 inches.
   • 8: The tire's width is approximately 8 inches.
   • 10: The tire is designed to fit a wheel with a 10-inch diameter.
3. 98J: These are the load index and speed rating of the tire:
   • 98: Load index, which indicates the maximum weight the tire can support when properly inflated. The specific weight value corresponds to a load capacity chart provided by tire manufacturers.
   • J: Speed rating, which indicates the maximum speed the tire can safely handle. The "J" rating typically corresponds to a maximum speed of 100 mph (160 km/h).
4. F: This could refer to the aspect ratio of the tire. The aspect ratio is the ratio of the tire's sidewall height to its width. However, it's uncommon to see the aspect ratio indicated by a single letter like "F," so this might require further clarification.
