The GT Radial FE2 is a summer tyre for passenger cars. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 42 sizes (132 registrations including load and speed variants), for 14″ to 18″ rims.

Wet grip is rated A–D depending on size, fuel efficiency A–D and external rolling noise 69–71 dB.

The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 235/65 R17 (Wet grip A · Fuel efficiency B · 69 dB), the weakest 235/60 R18 (Wet grip D · Fuel efficiency C · 69 dB).

What the label means on the road (195/65R15)

Example: the 195/65R15 size, compared with the 947 other summer tyres registered in this size.

Wet braking from 80 km/h

≈34 m with class A, against ≈41 m for the most common class in this size (C).

Fuel efficiency

Class C, the most common class in this size: no difference to the typical tyre.

Rolling noise

69 dB against a median of 71 dB in this size (2 dB quieter).

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 42 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).

Same label values, different brand

These tyres have exactly the same label values as the GT Radial FE2 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.

Questions

Is the GT Radial FE2 a quiet tyre?

Its declared rolling noise ranges from 69 dB to 71 dB (median 69 dB). In 95% of the sizes we could compare, it is at least as quiet as three quarters of same-size rivals.

How good is the GT Radial FE2 in the wet?

Its wet grip class is A–D. In 98% of compared sizes that is at least as good as three quarters of same-size rivals.

Is the GT Radial FE2 suitable for snow?

No size carries the 3PMSF symbol, so it is not certified for severe snow. In countries with winter tyre rules it does not count as a winter tyre.

When was the GT Radial FE2 launched?

It has been on the EU market since August 2020. The earliest production week in its registrations is 26/2020; the DOT code on the sidewall shows the week and year of your tyre.
