Uniform tire quality grading
For details, see “Uniform Tire Q uality Grading” that follows.
Location of treadwear indicators ( P. 3 6 2 )
Tire ply composition and materials
Plies are layers of rubber-coated parallel cords. Cords are the strands
which form the p lies in a tire.
Radial tires or bias-ply tires
A radial tire has “RADIAL” on the sidewall. A tire not marked “ RADIAL”
is a bias-ply tire.
TUBELESS or TUBE TYPE
A tubeless tire does not have a tube and air is directly put into the tire.
A tube type tire has a tube insi de the tire and the tube mainta ins the air
pressure.
Load limit at maximum cold tire inflation pressure ( P. 366)
Maximum cold tire in flation pressure (P. 470)
This means the press ure to which a tire may be inflated.
Summer tires or all season tires ( P. 3 6 6 )
An all season tire has “M+S” on the sidewall. A tire not marked “M+S”
is a summer tire.
“TEMPORARY USE ONLY”
A compact spare tire is identified by the phrase “TEMPORARY USE
ONLY” molded on its sidewall. This tire is designed for tempora ry
emergency use only.

at higher inflation pressures than the corre-
sponding standard tire
