pavem ent  as  measu red  und er  controlled   cond itions  on

Treadwear
The  traction    grad e  is  based   on   brak ing  (straigh  t-
ahead ) traction   tests  and  does  not  include   corn erin g
(turning)   perform  ance.
The tread wear  grad e is a comparative  rating  based  on the
wear  rate  of  the tire  when  tested   und er controlled   con-
ditions   on  a specified   governm  ent  test  course.  For  ex-
ample,  a  tire  grad ed 150  would  wear  one  and  a  half  (1
1/
2) times   as well   on  the  governm ent  course   as a  tire
grad ed  100. The  relative   perform ance  of  tires  depend  s
upon   the  actu al cond itions   of their   use,  how ever,  and
may depart   significantly  from  the norm  due  to variations
in driving  habits,  service practices  and  differences  in road
characteristics   and  climate.
