Optimised rolling resistance, the SnowTech II is an extremely economic winter tyre

Snow and ice performance

Feature: Directional V-shaped tread pattern with greater edge length and edge density
Effects: Improved build-up of forces in longitudinal and lateral direction
Benefits: Very good handling characteristics and winter performance

Aquaplaning

Feature: V-shaped tread pattern + wide lateral grooves in shoulder section
Effects: Excellent water pick-up and very good water dispersion
Benefits: Improved aquaplaning safety

Rolling resistance

Feature: Rolling resistance-optimised tyre design
Effects: Minimised tyre flexing means reduced energy loss when entering the ground contact patch
Benefits: High economy, thanks to reduced fuel consumption

Handling/braking on dry roads

Feature: V-shaped sipes in wide and compact shoulder blocks
Effects: Increased block stiffness in lateral and longitudinal direction due to sipe interlocking and block compactness
Benefits: Good handling and braking performance on dry roads with enhanced characteristics in snow

EU Tire Label and Efficiency Classes?

The European Union has introduced the EU Tire Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tires, light commercial vehicle tires and heavy commercial vehicle tires produced after 01.07.2012.

Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tire makes on the road.

The following are not affected by the EU Tire Label: retreaded tires, professional off-road tires, racing tires, tires with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tires, T-type emergency tires, special tires for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tires with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tires for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.

With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.

Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tire Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tire labelling, tires have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.

Tire manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tire labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
