This report contains the results of experimental investigations of heavy truck tire wet traction performance. The purposes of this program were to evaluate means by which this performance can be measured and to extend the data base of information on such performance, as affected by several construction, condition, and operational variables. A survey of facilities and test techniques for measuring wet braking and cornering traction characteristics is discussed. Test results, covering the effects of tire construction and tread design, speed, and surface skid number as measured by the three methods, are presented and compared.
