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 Mo-

tor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109.

Grades B and A represent higher levels of

performance on the laboratory test wheel

than the minimum required by law.

Warning! G

The temperature grade for this tire is

established for a tire that is properly inflated

and not overloaded. Excessive speed,

underinflation, or excessive loading, either

separately or in combination, can cause

excessive heat build-up and possible tire

failure.
