Paper reports investigations into effect of tread pattern, pattern modifications, tread material, and tire casing construction, on skid resistance of passenger-car tires at speeds between 25 and 80 mph on range of wet road surfaces; technique was to brake front wheels of car until they locked, and to record deceleration of vehicle; from deceleration record, both peak and locked-wheel values of braking force coefficients were obtained; method is described and assessment of errors is given; discussion by transportation experts and replies by authors.
