Notes: The data originally made available by tire companies included 44 LT and winter tires, which were excluded from the dataset.
Also excluded were what appeared to be duplicate records for 3 tires.
1/ MI=Michelin, BF=Bridgestone/Firestone, and GY=Goodyear. Some tires are sold under brand names such as Michelin's BF Goodrich and Uniroyal.
2/ Tire weights were obtained from manufacturer product specification sheets.
3/ Tread depths were obtained from manufacturer product specification sheets.
4/ Rolling resistance coefficients (RRC) were obtained from measurements provided by the manufacturer using SAE Test Practice J1269.
5/ Retail prices obtained from searches of popular internet tire retailers (TireRack.com, BigO.com, and Discounttiredirect.com) during Sept/Oct 2005.
The prices do not include taxes, shipping, balancing, mounting, or other installation charges.
