The new EU tyre label gives you independent ratings for three important areas of tyre performance: fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise. At a glance, you can quickly evaluate safety and environmental aspects of a tyre.
A measure of the tyre’s rolling resistance. A is the highest rating and G the lowest.
A measure of the tyre’s braking performance on wet surfaces, from A (highest rating) to F (lowest rating).
The external rolling noise of the tyre, measured in decibels. The noise class is shown as black sound waves, from 1 (quiet) to 3 (loud).
New tyres must display the EU ratings from November 2012, typically in the form of a sticker. Your dealer must display EU ratings for each tyre, so if you can’t find this information make sure to ask. You can also see EU ratings for each tyre on the Dunlop website.
Label values shown are for illustrative purposes only. Values for a certain tyre line/size may vary.
