UTQG tread wear ratings can play an important part in peoples tire purchase decision, especially for track day tires where the assumption is a lower treadwear means a grippier tire. To test this, I buy five popular tires, with treadwear 300, 220, 180 and 100 UTQG ratings, and test them on track to see if a lower treadwear rating really does mean more grip! The tires on test are the immensely popular: Michelin Pilot Sport 4S UTQG 300 AA A Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 180 AA A Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3 220 AA A Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3R 100 AA A Toyo R888R 100 AA A This was tested at the fastest track in North America, Nelson Ledges in Ohio, using a Chevrolet Camaro SS 1LE, which was a mighty impressive car!
