Abstract:
Part 575 requires tire manufacturers and tire brand owners to submit reports to NHTSA regarding the UTQGS grades of all passenger car tire lines they offer for sale in the United States. This information is used by consumers of passenger car tires to compare tire quality in making their purchase decisions. The information is provided in several different ways to insure that the consumer can readily see and understand the tire grade: (1) the grades are molded into the sidewall of the tire so that they can be reviewed on both the new tire and the old tire that is being replaced; (2) a paper label is affixed to the tread face of the new tire that provides the grade of that particular tire line along with an explanation of the grading system; (3) tire manufacturers provide dealers with brochures for public distribution listing the grades of all of the tirelines they offer for sale; and (4) NHTSA compiles the grading information of all manufacturers' tirelines into a booklet that is available to the public both in printed form and on the Web site.

Short Statement:
The changes indicated in items 13 of the OMB form 83-I are necessary, due to changes in costs. There was an increase in tire tests, labor and prints costs, which created an adjustment to the total cost. However, there is a decrease in the burden hours to manufacturers, from 88,320 to 86,780 hours, because of a decrease in the number of tires produced.

$1,278,000
