The treadwear grade of 100 is a relative durability score — a grade of 200 is expected to last roughly twice as long as a grade of 100 under the same controlled test. Traction grade AA measures straight-line wet stopping grip (AA is highest, then A, B and C). Temperature grade A reflects heat resistance at sustained speed (A is highest).

At $166.38 per tire, a full set of four costs $665.52. That is about 18% below the average price of the 8 tires we stock in this size.
