Hi, I'm looking for new tires and found tire ratings on the web. For example these web pages from different sites show tire ratings: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/surveyresults/surveydisplay.jsp?type=GTAS http://www.goodyear.ca/tire/eaglef1-asymmetric/
I would like to know if such tire rating numbers are based on some standard system so that the ratings on different sites are comparable. And if there is a standard, what exactly these numbers mean. All it tells me is that higher number is better but how much better I have no idea. For example the difference between 8 and 9 means what in practice?
