What these grades mean in plain English
- Treadwear 500: this is a high treadwear grade; the manufacturer rates this tire to wear slowly relative to the government control tire. Under UTQG a grade of 200 should wear twice as long as the grade-100 control tire on NHTSA's test course; real-world mileage varies with driving, rotation, alignment and climate.
- Traction A: A: second-highest wet-braking grade. Traction is straight-ahead wet braking only; it does not measure cornering or hydroplaning.
- Temperature B: B: passed the 500 rpm stage but not the 575 rpm stage.
- Ranked just below in Tred Tech: Classic 787 (median 440).

Cost-per-mile calculator
Price and mileage data are pending a licensed feed, so nothing is pre-filled. Enter your own quote and your own mileage expectation (for example the maker's treadwear warranty from the tire's paperwork). Formula: cost per 1,000 miles = price per set ÷ (expected miles ÷ 1,000).

FAQ
What is the treadwear rating of the Tred Tech Crusade SXT?
NHTSA's UTQG data lists a single treadwear grade of 500 for the Tred Tech Crusade SXT, from 6 records. Treadwear is graded in multiples of 20 relative to a government control tire graded 100; it is not a mileage guarantee.
