Reduced risk of aquaplaningThree wide longitudinal grooves enhance safety on wet roads and reduce the risk of aquaplaning. |
Optimal stability and reduced operating temperatureThe V-shaped tread pattern with long, wide tread blocks ensures optimal stability under high driving forces while simultaneously reducing heat generation within the tire. |
Powerful braking performance and precise handlingNumerous gripping edges ensure powerful braking performance and precise handling in a variety of driving conditions. |
Excellent gripA modern rubber compound ensures excellent grip, high mileage and a long service life for economical driving – certified by the 3PMSF symbol for winter suitability. |
Can I fit this tyre on my car?
The EU tyre label helps consumers to decide in favour of a higher fuel efficiency class for their tyres. This can contribute to large reductions in running costs and emissions. Enhanced wet grip means greater road safety, and details of external rolling noise contributes to a reduction in traffic noise levels.
The actual fuel savings and road safety depend heavily on the behaviour of drivers, and in particular on the following:
Less rolling noise saves fuel and cuts CO2. This property is assigned to classes A to E.
Wet grip is assigned to classes A to E. Wet grip is crucial to safe driving. For instance, the difference between class A and class E braking distances is 18 m.
The label presents the volume in dB and the class A (quieter), B, or C (louder). The noise emitted by tyres affects the total noise levels emitted by the vehicle.
The snowflake symbol confirms that the snow tested tyre keeps within the 3PMSF limits (type approval).
