Tyre Labelling

On 1st May 2021, the European Union updated the tyre labelling guidelines. Hence, every car owner in the United Kingdom must have comprehensive knowledge about the changes in tyre labels before choosing the correct set of car tyres Telford.

We at Priorslee Motor Services have updated our tyre inventory with the latest EU labelled tyres Telford. Furthermore, for the convenience of our customers, we have explained the changes made to labelling in the following section:

Latest tyre labelling guidelines

Wet grip

According to the new rules, the rating for the wet grip of car tyres will range from A to E. It means the units with an 'A' rating will provide excellent short braking performance on wet roads. However, the tyres with an 'E' rating will deliver poor short-braking performance.

Fuel efficiency

The fuel efficiency rating will also range from A to E, just like the wet grip rating. ‘A’ rating represents low rolling resistance and excellent fuel efficiency, while an ‘E’ rating means high rolling resistance and low fuel efficiency.

Noise emission

The noise emission rating of the tyre will now be marked A, B or C grades. Units with low external noise will have an 'A' rating, and those with a high noise emission level will have a 'B' grade. Tyres with a 'C' rating are entirely banned.

Additional guidelines

Apart from the rules mentioned above, you should be aware of the following guidelines before purchasing a new car tyre Telford:

• Nordic winter tyre labels will have a stalagmite symbol.
• Tyres built for snow performance will now have a 3PMSF symbol.
• All EU labels will have a QR code. These QR codes will give detailed information and verification about a particular tyre model from the EU database EPREL.
