Tire Speed Ratings
Uniform Tire Quality Grading
The following chart below shows many of the different
speed ratings currently used for passenger car tires.
The speed rating symbol is part of the tire size
designation on the sidewall of the tire. This symbol
corresponds to that tire’s designed maximum safe
operating speed.
The following information relates to the tire grading
system developed by the Canadian Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard (CMVSS) for grading tires by tread
wear, traction and temperature performance.
These temperature grades are molded on the sidewalls
of passenger vehicle tires. Tires available as standard
or optional equipment on Kia vehicles may vary with
respect to grade.
