Temperature ResistanceTemperature Resistance

Symbol Area

A Hot Area

B Normal Weather Area

C Cold Area

These letters indicates a tyre's resistance to heat. From highest to lowest, a tyre's resistance to heat is graded as "A", "B", or "C".

Treadwear NumberTreadwear Number

This number indicates the tyre's wear rate. The higher the treadwear number is, the longer it should take for the tread to wear down. For example, a tyre graded 400 should last twice as long as a tyre graded 200.

TractionTraction

This letter indicates a tyre's ability to stop on wet pavement. A higher graded tyre should allow you to stop your car on wet roads in a shorter distance than a tyre with a lower grade. Traction is graded from highest to lowest as "AA","A", "B", and "C".
