Tire Ratings
Posted by Tim on June 29, 2006
What does the T versus H rating on tires mean? I am getting conflicting data about which rating is better for the long term of a wear and handling.
I assume you are refering to the speed rating on passenger tires. If this is right, a speed rating of T means the tire is rated to 118 MPH and a rating of H means a rating up to 130 MPH.
Speed rating is not a good way to compare the wear and handling capabilities of one tire over another, especially among different brands.
