Breaking down the properties and characteristics of tires into a graph is simple:
-Exposure to light and heat over time
-Traction characteristics at x angles given normalized spring/summer/winter/extreme winter.
-Traction response at x degree/changes in road undulations.
-Tire slip with the above (sideways=bad, forward=good)
-Temperatures throughout testing.


The manufacturers probably have all that data already.
Tire science is not new.
