The tires on your vehicle meet all U.
S. Federal Safety Requirements. All
tires are also graded for treadwear,
traction, and temperature
performance according to
Department of Transportation (DOT)
standards. The following explains
these gradings.
Uniform Tire Quality Grading
Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall
between tread shoulder and
maximum section width. For
example:Treadwear 200
Traction AA
Temperature A
All passenger car tires must conform
to Federal Safety Requirements in
addition to these grades. Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a
comparative rating based on the wear
rate of the tire when tested under
controlled conditions on a specified
government test course. For
example, a tire graded 150 would
wear one and one-half (1 1/2) times
as well on the government course as
a tire graded 100. The relative
performance of tires depends upon
the actual conditions of their use,
however, and may depart
significantly from the norm due to
variations in driving habits, service
practices and differences in road
characteristics and climate.
Traction
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. Those
grades represent the tire's ability to
stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on
specified government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire marked
C may have poor traction
performance.
Warning: The traction grade
assigned to this tire is based on
straight-ahead braking traction tests,
and does not include acceleration,
cornering, hydroplaning, or peak
traction characteristics.DOT Tire Quality Grading (U.S. Vehicles)45408/06/06 16:58:07 09 ACURA MDX MMC North America Owner's M 50 31STX620 enu

The tires that came on your vehicle
have a number of markings. Those
you should be aware of are described
below.
Tire SizeWhenever tires are replaced, they
should be replaced with tires of the
same size. The following is an
example of tire size with an
explanation of what each component
means.P255/55R18 104H
P －Vehicle type (P indicates
passenger vehicle).
255 －Tire width in millimeters.
55 －Aspect ratio (the tire's
section height as a
percentage of its width).
R －Tire construction code (R
indicates radial).
18 －Rim diameter in inches. 104
－Load index (a numerical code
associated with the
maximum load the tire can
carry).
H －Speed symbol (an
alphabetical code indicating
the maximum speed rating).
Tire Identification Number (TIN)The tire identification number (TIN)
is a group of numbers and letters that
look like the following example. TIN
is located on the sidewall of the tire.
DOT B97R FW6X 2202
DOT －This indicates that the tire
meets all requirements of
the U.S. Department of
Transportation.
B97R －Manufacturer's
identification mark.
