BFGoodrich G-force Winter

EU tyre label for every size: 4 sizes of this winter tyre compared with the rest of the market

The BFGoodrich G-force Winter is a winter tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 4 sizes (4 registrations including load and speed variants), for 13″ to 16″ rims.

Wet grip is rated C 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 205/60 R15 (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency C · 71 dB), the weakest 205/50 R16 (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency D · 71 dB).

On the EU market since September 2013; the earliest production week registered is 31/2012.

Rolling noise

71 dB against a median of 71 dB in this size.

Estimates from the class ranges in Regulation (EU) 2020/740. A label class is a range, so a real tyre can sit anywhere inside it. Every 3 dB doubles the sound energy.

All 4 sizes

The small figure under each class is the share of same-size, same-season tyres this size matches or beats (“–” when fewer than five tyres share the size).
