Tire labeling (example) Meaning
TREADWEAR220
Relative service life expectancy of the tire referenced to a U.S.-
specific standard test.
TRACTIONA Traction rating under wet conditions (AA, A, B or C).
TEMPERATUREA
Temperature stability of the tire at increased test bench speeds
(A, B or C).
Additional numbers found on the tire could either be tire manufacturer internal labels or
country-specific labels (such as for Brazil and China).
Unidirectional tires
Unidirectional tires are designed to rotate only in one direction. Unidirectional tires have arrows on the
sidewalls that show the direction of rotation. Make sure you mount the tire so that it rotates in the
proper direction. The tire's performance with regard to hydroplaning, traction, noise, and wear is
worse if it is not mounted in the proper direction of rotation.
If you have to mount a tire opposite to its proper direction of rotation, you must drive more carefully,
since the tire is no longer being used as designed. This is particularly important on wet roads. You
must replace or remount the tire as soon as possible in order to restore the correct direction of
rotation.
Load rating code
The load index indicates the maximum permissible load per individual tire in pounds (kilograms).

1388lbs (630kg)
1433lbs (650kg)
1521lbs (690kg)
1609lbs (730kg)
