2. Tire code - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_code

   Starting in 1972 tires were specified by load rating, using a letter code. In practice, a higher load rating tire was also a wider tire. In this system a tire had a letter, optionally followed by "R" for radial tires, followed by the aspect ratio, a dash and the diameter – C78-15 or CR78-15 for bias and radial, respectively. Each diameter of ...

3. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

   The upper chuck lowers to make contact with the upper bead. The tire is inflated to the set point pressure. The load wheel advances to contact the tire and apply the set loading force. The spindle drive accelerates the tire to the test speed. Once speed, force, and pressure are stable, load cells measure the force exerted on the load wheel by ...

4. Tyre label - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyre_label

   Manufacturers of tyres for cars, light and heavy trucks must specify fuel consumption, wet grip and noise classification of every tyre sold in EU market starting in November 2012. [ 1 ] For passenger car, light truck and truck tyres the information must be available in technical promotional literature (leaflets, brochures, etc.), including the ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Tire_code

   If your tire size has two sets of numbers (6-12, 5.00-15, 11.2-24…) the first number (5.00-15) is the approximate width in inches; the second number (5.00-15) is the rim diameter. If your tire size has three sets of numbers (15/6.00-6, 26/12.00-12, 31/15.50-15) the first number ( 26 /12.00-12) is the approximate height, the second number (26/ ...

6. Uniform Tire Quality Grading - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Tire_Quality_Grading

   Dedicated winter tires, also known as snow tires, are not required to have a UTQG rating. [5] Non-passenger car tires, such as those for motorcycles, buses, medium trucks and above along with trailers are also not required to have a UTQG rating, although FMVSS Standard 109 requires the following to be listed on the tire's sidewall: speed ...

7. Tire load sensitivity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_load_sensitivity

   Tire load sensitivity describes the behaviour of tires under load. Conventional pneumatic tires do not behave as classical friction theory would suggest. The load sensitivity of most real tires in their typical operating range is such that the coefficient of friction decreases as the vertical load, Fz, increases. The maximum lateral force that ...
