The ways in which car tires become worn in practice are -- evenly, with one shoulder wear, with double shoulder wear or with center wear. Peak and locked wheel brake force coefficients have been measured for both new tires and those worn in these various ways. The tests were done on two research track surfaces representing the extremes of rough and smooth surfaces likely to be found on roads. Speeds ranging from 30 km/h to 125 km/h were used.
