What these grades mean in plain English
- Treadwear 300: this is a moderate treadwear grade, near the middle of NHTSA-rated tires. Under UTQG a grade of 200 should wear twice as long as the grade-100 control tire on NHTSA's test course; real-world mileage varies with driving, rotation, alignment and climate.
- Traction A: A: second-highest wet-braking grade. Traction is straight-ahead wet braking only; it does not measure cornering or hydroplaning.
- Temperature A: A (highest): resisted heat build-up through the higher 575 rpm test stage.
- Ranked just above in Doral: SDL70A (median 400).
- Ranked just below in Doral: SDL50 (median 280).

Cost-per-mile calculator
Price and mileage data are pending a licensed feed, so nothing is pre-filled. Enter your own quote and your own mileage expectation (for example the maker's treadwear warranty from the tire's paperwork). Formula: cost per 1,000 miles = price per set ÷ (expected miles ÷ 1,000).

FAQ
What is the treadwear rating of the Doral SDL65?
NHTSA's UTQG data lists treadwear grades from 280 to 300 (median 300) for the Doral SDL65, from 11 records. Treadwear is graded in multiples of 20 relative to a government control tire graded 100; it is not a mileage guarantee.
Is the Doral SDL65 treadwear grade high or low?
A grade of 300 is a moderate treadwear grade, near the middle of NHTSA-rated tires. Compared with every line in the NHTSA data, the median is higher than 19% of lines (dataset median 420). Within Doral it ranks #19 of 23.
What is the cost per mile of the Doral SDL65?
We do not have a licensed price or warranty-mileage feed yet, so we do not state a cost per mile. Use the formula cost per 1,000 miles = price per set ÷ (expected miles ÷ 1,000) with your own quote and mileage expectation, or the calculator on this page.
