estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
(iii) How to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(iv) How to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including the use
of appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques, or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting

Title: 49 CFR part 575.104; Uniform
Tire Quality Grading Standard.
OMB Control Number: 2127–0519.
Type of Request: Request for
Reinstatement of a Currently Expired
Collection of Information.
Abstract: Part 575.104, Uniform Tire
Quality Grading Standard (UTQGS)
requires tire manufacturers and tire
brand owners to submit reports to
NHTSA regarding 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 purchase decisions.
The information is provided in several
different ways to ensure the consumer
can readily see and understand the tire
grade: (1) Grades are molded into the
sidewall of the tire so 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 providing 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
grades of all of the tire lines they offer
for sale; and (4) NHTSA compiles the
grading information of all
manufacturers’ tire lines into a booklet
that is available to the public in printed
form and on the NHTSA website.
Affected Public: All passenger car
tires manufacturers and brand name
owners offering passenger car tires for
sale in the United States.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
There are approximately 160 individual
tire brands sold in the United States.
Because of industry consolidation the
actual number of respondents will be
significantly reduced, since
manufacturers generally file reports on
behalf of the various individual brand
names for which they produce tires. The

• ways to enhance the quality, utility
