BFGoodrich Activan Winter 2

EU tyre label for every size: 16 sizes of this winter tyre compared with the rest of the market

The BFGoodrich Activan Winter 2 is a winter tyre for vans and light trucks. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 16 sizes (22 registrations including load and speed variants), for 15″ to 17″ rims.

Wet grip is rated B in every size, fuel efficiency C–D and external rolling noise 71 dB. Every size carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF), the mark for tyres tested in severe snow.

The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 215/65 R15C (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency C · 71 dB), the weakest 195/60 R16C (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency D · 71 dB).

On the EU market since July 2025; the earliest production week registered is 17/2024.

Same label values, different brand

These tyres have exactly the same label values as the BFGoodrich Activan Winter 2 in most of the sizes they share, and both are registered in EPREL by the same manufacturer. Identical labels do not prove two tyres are the same: classes are broad. But consistent matches across many sizes point to a shared production family.
