Linglong RADIAL666

EU tyre label for every size: 25 sizes of this summer tyre compared with the rest of the market

The Linglong RADIAL666 is a summer tyre for vans and light trucks. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 25 sizes (34 registrations including load and speed variants), for 6″ to 16″ rims.

Wet grip is rated B–C depending on size, fuel efficiency C–D and external rolling noise 68–72 dB.

The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 195/75 R16LT 10PR (Wet grip B · Fuel efficiency C · 72 dB), the weakest 235/65 R16C 8PR (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency D · 72 dB).

All 25 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).
