- Everyday Handling The tire's ability to navigate the twists and turns of everyday driving conditions, as well as the ability to provide good "on-center" steering feel and true tracking for highway driving.
- Wet Traction How efficiently the tire disperses water to combat aquaplaning, and how well it grips wet roads in low-speed driving.
- Off-road Traction The tire's ability to provide grip and traction for starts and stops in off-road conditions such as mud, turf, etc.
- Maximum Tread Life The tire's ability to maintain legal tread depth as the miles of driving add up.
