Tire grip

Friction-vs-slip curves for every tire setup. The peak is the most grip a tire can give before it starts to spin; the plateau is the grip once it breaks loose.

Grip coefficients, peak and limit slip are exact extracted figures; the curve between them is reconstructed for shape. Higher forward grip climbs and brakes better; higher cornering grip resists sliding out on off-camber ground. Compare full vehicles in the compare tool.
