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 corresponds to a level of performance

which all passenger car tires must meet under the

Federal Motor 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!

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.
