- Politically Ray, durometer readings and such will never be accepted. Technically it's possible and the ASA racing series has used durometers to measure/test tires for a long long time. In the past I

- correct. Yeah we are. A soft compound can be part of a tire with the requisite heat-dissipation characteristics. Witness the Yokohama A032 cited earlier. and how much heat cannot withstand You're try

- An additional thought, if the treadwear number is related to hardness/softness of the tire, and the requirement is that tires have a minimum treadwear rating of 150 (pick a number). Does that not sol

- Well I guess I'm going to have to respond to the points you make. And you're correct about much of what you say. However ... "Witness the Yokohama A032 cited earlier." I seriously don't see what that

- Again, check out the speed rating on the tires in question. On Tire Rack's competition tire site, EVERY G-FORCE LISTED HAS A Z RATING!!!! Also every Hoosier radial, every Kuhmo of at least 15", and e

- Theoretically, but in practive the treadwear number is arbitrary, and set by the manufacturer.

- Here's what I see is wrong with a durometer based system: 1) Does ambient temperature play a role in the durometer readings? 2) Are the durometer readings taken on cold tires or warm tires? 3) If a c
