Rapid Effiload C001

EU tyre label for every size: 18 sizes of this summer tyre compared with the rest of the market

The Rapid Effiload C001 is a summer tyre for vans and light trucks. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 18 sizes (18 registrations including load and speed variants), for 14″ to 16″ rims.

Wet grip is rated C in every size, fuel efficiency C–D and external rolling noise 71–72 dB.

The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale is 205/65 R16C (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency C · 72 dB), the weakest 235/65 R16C (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency D · 72 dB).

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 Rapid Effiload C001 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.
