The new EU tyre label provides important information about safety and environmental aspects of a tyre. Similar to the energy label found on kitchen appliances, the EU tyre label makes it easy to compare tyres in terms of wet grip, fuel efficiency and noise. Explore the links below to find out more.
A measure of the tyre’s rolling resistance, which has an impact on your vehicle’s fuel efficiency. Rated from A (highest rating) to G (lowest rating).
A measure of the tyre’s braking ability on wet roads. Wet grip is rated from A (highest rating) to F (lowest rating).
A measure of the external noise generated by the tyre, in decibels. The black sound waves indicate the noise class of the tyre, from 1 (quiet) to 3 (loud).
From November 2012, all new tyres will display an EU tyre label sticker. If you can’t find the label on a tyre you should ask your dealer, as he or she is obliged to provide this information. EU ratings are also displayed for each tyre on our website.
Label values shown are for illustrative purposes only. Values for a certain tyre line/size may vary.
