What the label means on the road (215/65R16)

Example: the 215/65R16 size, compared with the 766 other winter and 3PMSF tyres registered in this size.

Wet braking from 80 km/h

≈47 m with class D, against ≈41 m for the most common class in this size (C).

Fuel efficiency

Class D vs the typical C: ≈0.18 L/100 km more, about 28 litres more over 15,000 km for a 1,500 kg car.

Rolling noise

72 dB against a median of 72 dB in this size.

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).
