6-1. Specifications
■Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative r
ating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested under controll ed conditions on a specified gov-
ernment test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half (1 - 1 /2) times as
well on the government course as a tire graded 100. 
The relative performance of tires de pends upon the actual conditions of
their
use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to varia -
tions in driving habits, service practices
and differences in road characteris-
tics and climate.
■ Traction AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to lo
west, are AA, A, B and C, and
they represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled condit ions 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 tir
e is based on braking
(straight ahead) traction tests and does not include cornering (turning) trac-
tion.
■ Temperature A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, representing
the tir

e's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate
heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor
laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate
and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire fail -
ure.
The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car
tir
es must meet under the Federal Mo tor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory
test wheel than the minimum r
equired by law.
