Doublestar DSR08A
EU tyre label for every size: 8 sizes of this summer tyre compared with the rest of the market
The Doublestar DSR08A is a summer tyre for trucks and buses. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 8 sizes (12 registrations including load and speed variants), for 17.5″ to 22.5″ rims.
Wet grip is rated C in every size, fuel efficiency D–E and external rolling noise 73 dB. 6 of 12 registrations carry the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) for severe snow.
The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 225/70 R19.5-14PR (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency D · 73 dB), the weakest 315/80 R22.5-20PR (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency E · 73 dB).
On the EU market since June 2020; the earliest production week registered is 01/2018.
How it compares in its sizes
We compared each size with all other summer tyres of the same size and class in EPREL (8 sizes had at least four rivals). A size scores when its label is at least as good as 75% of them.
Weakest point: rolling noise, where most same-size rivals do as well or better.
All 8 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).
