µ The treadwear grade is a compara- tive rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specif ied government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one- half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative perf ormance of tires depends upon the actual condi- tions of their use, however, and may depart signif icantly f rom the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and dif f erences in...

µ 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 specif ied 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 f ailure. The grade C corresponds to a level of perf ormance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal...

Some conventional gasolines are being blended with alcohol or an ether compound. These gasolines are collectively ref erred to as oxygenated f uels. To meet clean air standards, some areas of the United States and Canada use oxygenated f uels to help reduce emissions. If you use an oxygenated f uel, be sure it is unleaded and meets the minimum octane rating requirement. Bef ore using an oxygenated f uel, try to conf irm the f uel’s contents. Some states/provinces require this informationtobepostedonthe...
