An evaluation method for pneumatic tires and a system thereof, is provided, capable of appropriately evaluating an adverse effect, such as deterioration, of tire temperature by expressing severity of a temperature imposed on a member of tire made of rubber or the like in quantitative and convenient manners. Detection counts are calculated for each detected temperature according to a detection counts calculating unit 102 based on information of temperatures of pneumatic tires detected by a temperature sensor of a temperature detector 101. Temperature severity numbers of the pneumatic tires are calculated from a computing equation by a severity calculating unit 104 based on the detection counts and contribution coefficients of deterioration of tire rubber with temperatures stored in a contribution coefficient storage 103 as parameters. Using the calculated temperature severity number, a determination unit 105 determines thermal deterioration of the tire.
An evaluation method for pneumatic tires which comprises the steps:
An evaluation system for pneumatic tires, evaluating an adverse effect of a temperature of a pneumatic tire based on information of temperatures of the pneumatic tire detected by a temperature sensor, characterized by comprising:
