The main objective of this study is to compare two different systems of calibration; The Torque Lever Arm; and the Davidson Force Plate Method. Results were taken for three different tires using the Davidson Force Plate and Torque Lever Arm Methods of calibration. Readings were taken at three wear levels: new, at one-half, and at full. A statistical analysis was made on the data collected and indicated that there was no significant difference between the Davidson Force Plate and Torque Lever Arm Methods of calibration.
