2022 SUBARU BRZ tire type

Tire Information
400Rim type designation
The industry of manufacturer’s
designation for a rim by style or
code.
 Rim width
Nominal distance between rim
flanges.
 Section width
The linear distance between the
exteriors of the sidewalls of an
inflated tire, excluding elevations
due to labeling, decoration, or
protective bands.
 Sidewall
That portion of a tire between the
tread and bead.
 Sidewall separation
The parting of the rubber compound
from the cord material in the
sidewall.
 Snow tire
A tire that attains a traction index
equal to or greater than 110,
compared to the ASTM E1136-93
Standard Reference Test Tire,
when using the snow traction test as described in ASTM F-1805-00,
Standard Test Method for Single
Wheel Driving Traction in a Straight
Line on Snow-and Ice-Covered
Surfaces, and that is marked with
an Alpine Symbol “ ” on at least
one sidewall.

Test rim
The rim on which a tire is fitted for
testing, and it may be any rim listed
as appropriate for use with that tire.
 Tread
That portion of a tire that comes into
contact with the road.
 Tread rib
A tread section running
circumferentially around a tire.
 Tread separation
Pulling away of th e tread from the
tire carcass.
 Treadwear indicators (TWI)
The projections within the principal
grooves designed to give a visual
indication of the degrees of wear of
the tread. 
Vehicle capacity weight
The rated cargo and luggage load
plus 150 lbs (68 kg) times the
vehicle’s designated seating
capacity.
 Vehicle maximum load on the
tire
Load on an individual tire that is
determined by distributing to each
axle its share of the maximum
loaded vehicle weight and dividing
by two.
 Vehicle normal load on the tire
Load on an individual tire that is
determined by distributing to each
axle its share of the curb weight,
accessory weight, and normal occu-
pant weight (distributed in accor-
dance with Table 1 that is appended
to the end of this section) and
dividing by 2.
 Wheel-holding fixture
The fixture used to hold the wheel
and tire assembly securely during
testing.A4600BEscusenvhch13.fm 400 ページ ２０２１年７月９日　金曜日　午後４時３９分

406Suspension, bearings, axles and
other parts of the body could break
or experience accelerated wear that
will shorten vehicle life.
 Tires could fail.
 Tread separation could occur.
 Tire could separate from its rim.■ Steps for Determining
Correct Load Limit1. Locate the statement “The
combined weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed XXX kg
or XXX lbs.” on your vehicle’s
placard.
2. Determine the combined weight
of the driver and passengers that
will be riding in your vehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of
the driver and passengers from
XXX kg or XXX lbs.
4. The resulting figure equals the
available amount of cargo and
luggage load capacity. For
example, if the “
XXX
” amount equals
1,400 lbs (635 kg) and there will be
five 150 lbs (68 kg) passengers in your vehicle, the amount of avail-
able cargo and luggage load
capacity is 650 lbs (1,400
− 750 (5 ×
150) = 650 lbs).
5. Determine the combined weight
of luggage and cargo being loaded
on the vehicle. That weight may not
safely exceed the available cargo
and luggage load capacity calcu-
lated in Step 4.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a
trailer, load from your trailer will be
transferred to your vehicle. Consult
this manual to determine how this
reduces the available cargo and
luggage load capacity of your
vehicle.
13-3. Uniform Tire Quality Grading StandardsThis information i ndicates the rela-
tive performance of passenger car
tires in the area of treadwear, trac-
tion, and temperature resistance.
This is to aid the consumer in
making an informed choice in the
purchase of tires.
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
The quality grades apply to new
pneumatic tires for use on
passenger cars. However, they do
not apply to deep tread, winter type
snow tires, space-saver or tempo-
rary use spare tires, tires with
nominal rim diameters of 12 inches
or less, or to some limited produc-
tion tires.
