EU tyre label for every size: 21 sizes of this summer tyre compared with the rest of the market

The Lassa Transway is a summer tyre for vans and light trucks, trucks and buses. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 21 sizes (25 registrations including load and speed variants), for 14″ to 16″ rims.

Wet grip is rated A–C depending on size, fuel efficiency C–E and external rolling noise 69–72 dB.

The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale (vans and light trucks) is 215/65 R16C (Wet grip A · Fuel efficiency D · 72 dB), the weakest 215/75 R16C (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency D · 72 dB).
