Honda CR-V: Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative
rating based on the wear rate of
the tire when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified government
test course. For example, a tire
graded 150 would wear one and onehalf
(1 1/2) times as well on the
government course as a tire graded
100. The relative performance of
tires depends upon the actual conditions
of their use, however, and may
depart significantly from the norm
due to variations in driving habits,
service practices and differences in
road characteristics and climate.

The temperature grades are A (the
highest), B, and C, representing the

heat and its ability to dissipate heat
