| Reference Number: WT-77-08 |
|
Draft minutes of the 77th session of the Informal Working Group on Wet Grip of Worn Tyres held on 28 October 2026. The group reviewed and discussed preliminary conclusions from data analysis on test precision for worn tyre wet grip testing, including comments from JASIC and ETRTO. Discussion covered whether the obtained dispersion level of 0.071 is sufficient, the appropriateness of test campaign methodology, and the feasibility of achieving precision levels comparable to new tyre wet grip testing given the intrinsic variability from candidate tyre buffing and aquaplaning effects. |
