2. Uniform Tire Quality Grading - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Tire_Quality_Grading

   These represent the tire's resistance to the generation of heat at speed. Tires graded A effectively dissipate heat up to a maximum speed that is greater than 115 mph. B rates at a maximum between 100 mph and 115 mph. C rates at a maximum of between 85 mph to 100 mph. Tires that cannot grade up to C or higher cannot be sold in the US. [9]

   Speed ratings with parentheses such as (W) and (Y) have maximum speeds set by the manufacturers. The load rating is often included within the parentheses, e.g. (86Y). Prior to 1991, tire speed ratings were shown inside the tire size, before the "R" construction type.

4. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

   The standard test speed for tire uniformity machines is 60 r/min of a standard load wheel that approximates 5 miles per hour. High speed uniformity machines are used in research and development environments that reach 250 km/h and higher. High speed uniformity machines have also been introduced for production testing.

5. Tyre label - Wikipedia

   The wet grip index (WGI) is calculated from the results of two tests specified in the regulations. The first test measures the maximum achievable average deceleration of a vehicle as it slows from 85 ± 2 km/h (52.8 mph) to 20 ± 2 km/h (12.4 mph). The second test (the "skid trailer" test) is usually performed using a tow vehicle and trailer.

   I don't know what the 'S' is all about though. SteveBaker 22:43, 27 October 2006 (UTC) I have a vague memory that 'S' in that position means the "standard" 82%, but don't have a source offhand. S is the speed rating of the tyre —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 219.89.129.194 09:58, 11 April 2007 (UTC).
