    1- or 2-digit/letter combination: Speed rating; see table below. Additional marks: see subheading below. As an example, if a tire size has two sets of numbers (6-12, 5.00-15, 11.2-24), then the first number ( 5.00 -15) is the approximate width in inches, and the second number (5.00- 15 ) is the rim diameter in inches.

  4. 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]

  5. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

    Tire uniformity refers to the dynamic mechanical properties of pneumatic tires as strictly defined by a set of measurement standards and test conditions accepted by global tire and car makers. These standards include the parameters of radial force variation , lateral force variation , conicity, ply steer, radial run-out , lateral run-out , and ...

    The tire cools, and the retaining ring (a shaped steel bar rolled into a hoop, known as a Gibson ring, after its inventor J. Gibson of the British Great Western Railway [1] [2]) is fitted into the groove. Hydraulically operated rolls swage the groove down on to the retaining ring. The tire is primarily held in place by its interference fit. The ...

  8. Slip (vehicle dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_(vehicle_dynamics)

    In (automotive) vehicle dynamics, slip is the relative motion between a tire and the road surface it is moving on. This slip can be generated either by the tire's rotational speed being greater or less than the free-rolling speed (usually described as percent slip), or by the tire's plane of rotation being at an angle to its direction of motion (referred to as slip angle).

  9. Radial tire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_tire

    A cross-section of a tire. Number 12 indicates the radial ply. Numbers 14 and 16 are bias plies. A radial tire (more properly, a radial-ply tire) is a particular design of vehicular tire. In this design, the cord plies are arranged at 90 degrees to the direction of travel, or radially (from the center of the tire).
