Windforce Advanfors A/T *

EU tyre label for every size: 29 sizes of this all-terrain tyre with 3PMSF compared with the rest of the market

The Windforce Advanfors A/T * is a all-terrain tyre with 3PMSF for passenger cars, vans and light trucks. Its supplier has registered it in the EU product database (EPREL) in 29 sizes (38 registrations including load and speed variants), for 15″ to 20″ rims.

Wet grip is rated A–C depending on size, fuel efficiency B–D and external rolling noise 71–75 dB. 20 of 38 registrations carry the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) for severe snow.

The label depends on the size. Sorted by wet grip, then fuel efficiency, then noise, the best-labelled size on sale (passenger cars) is 245/75 R16 (Wet grip A · Fuel efficiency B · 71 dB), the weakest 285/60 R18 (Wet grip C · Fuel efficiency D · 75 dB).

What the label means on the road (225/65R17)

Example: the 225/65R17 size, compared with the 650 other winter and 3PMSF tyres registered in this size.

Wet braking from 80 km/h

≈41 m with wet grip class C, the most common class in this size.

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

71 dB against a median of 72 dB in this size (1 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 29 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).
