f5,
As I read him he's asking what the letter means on the rim, not the tire.

His quote:
What are these letters on the ends of the sizes? C, J, F ???
And I believe the rim is the same rating.....

Re: Wheel size decipher???
Markings on the rim "J" indicate the name designation of the bead to bead rim contour which defines dropwell dimensions and also defines the tire part of the flange.
Tire and Rim Association defines these in their Yearbook, along with tire size information and valve types.
There are many many many different contour types...
