How to read your tyres

The size of a tyre is on the sidewall of the tyre. You’ll see a series of numbers and letters, such as 205/55/R16 91V.

This is your tyres size, each number means the following:

Tyre Labelling

Fuel Efficiency

A measure of the tyre rolling resistance, which has an impact on your vehicle’s fuel efficiency. This is rated from A (highest rating) to G (lowest rating).

Wet Grip

A measure of the tyre braking ability in wet conditions. Wet grip is rated from A (highest rating) to F (lowest rating).

Noise

A measure of the external noise produced by the tyre on the road, in decibels. The black sound waves indicate the noise class of the tyre – from 1 (quiet) to 3 (loud).

Can tyres help reduce my carbon footprint?

You can impact air pollution for the better by choosing tyres with lower rolling resistance. Rolling resistance refers to the energy lost when the tyre is moving as you drive. The lower the rolling resistance, the less energy is lost and less fuel is needed. Better fuel efficiency means lowering the driver’s carbon footprint by reducing CO2 emissions.

Rolling resistance tyres will also improve fuel consumption, dramatically. Tyres account for 20 to 30% of a vehicle’s fuel consumption, therefore choosing energy-efficient tyres with reduced rolling resistance, results in less fuel consumption.
