Section width The linear distance between the exteriors of the sidewalls of an inflated tire, excluding elevations due to labeling decoration, or protective bands. Sidewall The portion of a tire between the bead and the tread. Sidewall separation The parting of the rubber compound from the cord material in the sidewall. Speed rating (letter code) A standardized letter code indicating the maximum speed at which a tire is designed to be driven for extended periods of time. The ratings range from 93 mph or 150 km/h (“P”) to 186 mph or (300 km/h) “Y”. The speed rating letter code, where applicable, is molded on the tire sidewall. You may not find this information on all tires because it is not required by law. Tire Pressure Monitoring System A system that detects when at least one of a vehicle's tires is underinflated and illuminates a low tire- pressure warning light. Tread The portion of a tire that normally touches the road. Tread rib A tread section running circumferentially around a tire. Tread separation Tire failure caused by the tread pulling away from the tire carcass. Tread wear indicators (TWI) Raised areas within the main tread grooves that show, visually, when tires are worn and near the end of their useful life. Uniform Tire Quality Grading (UTQG) A tire information system developed by the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that is designed to help buyers compare tires. UTQG is not a safety rating, nor is it a guarantee that a tire will last for a certain number of miles or perform a certain way. It gives tire buyers more information to compare with factors such as price, brand loyalty and dealer recommendations. Under UTQG, tires are graded by the tire manufacturers in 3 areas: tread wear, traction and temperature resistance. UTQG information is molded into the tire sidewalls. U.S. DOT Tire Identification Number (TIN) A tire's serial number. It begins with the letters “DOT” (“Department of Transportation”) and indicates that the tire meets all federal standards. The next two numbers or letters indicate the plant where the tire was manufactured. The last four numbers represent the week and year of manufacture. For example, the numbers 1709 mean that the tire was produced in the 17th week of 2009. Any other numbers are marketing codes used by the tire manufacturer. This information is used to help identify affected consumers if a tire defect requires a recall. Vehicle capacity weight The total rated cargo, luggage and passenger load. Passenger load is 150 lbs (68 kilograms) times the vehicle's total seating capacity (as listed on the label inside the driver door).
