Tire Grip Calculator
Calculate tire grip performance, traction levels, and optimal driving conditions with our comprehensive calculator. Determine grip coefficients based on tire type, road surface, temperature, and vehicle specifications.
Step 1: Tire Specifications
Understanding Tire Grip
Tire grip is influenced by compound, tread pattern, width, and age. Wider tires generally provide more grip, while older tires lose elasticity and traction over time.
Step 2: Road & Vehicle Parameters
About Tire Performance
Tire grip coefficient (μ) ranges from 0.1 (ice) to 1.0+ (racing slicks on dry asphalt). Most passenger tires have μ values between 0.7-0.9 on dry roads, reducing significantly in wet conditions.

Road Condition Performance
Grip Coefficient Formula
Effective Grip (μ) = Base Grip × Road Factor × Temperature Factor × Age Factor
Base grip depends on tire compound and design. Road factor accounts for surface conditions. Temperature factor optimizes at 15-25°C. Age factor reduces grip by approximately 3% per year after 5 years.
