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 (1½) 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 drivinghabits, 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.
Temperature
The temperature grades
are A (the highest), B, and
C, representing the tire'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 failure. The
grade C corresponds to a
level of performance which
all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal
Motor Safety Standard
No. 109. Grades B and A
represent higher levels of
performance on the
laboratory test wheel than
the minimum required by
