9. Date of manufacture of the tire (week of production / year of production)
PR is an abbreviation of "ply rating". This label originally indicated the number of layers of cotton fishing line in the shell. A large number of bearings means a higher load capacity. When stronger materials were introduced for bearings, this term was removed from the actual number of bearings. Currently, a tire with 8 PR can only have four nylon linear bearings. Today, the stability of a controlled tire is expressed in terms of load capacity and speed capacity, and not in terms of the ply rating.

Optimal driving in all winter conditions
The perfect all-round winter tyre. Excellent control in the snow, impressive performance in wet and dry conditions, outstanding advanced ice grip and traction even in extremely low temperatures. A reliable and durable tyre, designed with advanced technology to adapt to all winter road conditions.
Snow Pick Traction Grooves
The gull-wing shaped lateral grooves on the tyre kick out and expel the snow, ensuring impressive handling on snowy roads.
3D Winter Sipes
The serrated winter sipes at the end of the tread improve braking performance on winter roads. This unique sipe provides enhanced driving stability and handling by minimising block movement.
Snow Pick Traction Grooves
The water pipe kerf found on the inner side of the shoulder blocks improve ice and wet grip performance, by efficiently expelling the precipitation from the winter roads.
Aqua Pine Compound
Maximising wet, ice and snow grip by using highly refined resin.
Tyre Structure
Advanced Silica Compound for Wet Performance
The high loading silica compound increases the wet and dry performance of the tyre. The natural ingredients ensure flexibility throughout a wide range of temperatures.
Application of High Strength Steel Belt Wire
The full cover of the high strength steel belt wire increases tread stiffness and tyre edge cover, to improve steering performance and ensure the tyre has full control of the winter roads.
Increase of Steel Belt Cords
Additional steel belt cords improve the handling performance of the tyre, producing a firm grip on the winter roads.
Dual Layer Fibre Stiffener
The dual structure of the carcass fibre stiffener increases the tyre's strength, resistance and reliability on the winter roads.
High Strength Bead Wire
By increasing the binding force between the wheel and joint, the tyre is securely attached to the wheel, even throughout harsh winter road conditions, producing strong grip and traction on the road at all times.
EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes
The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher.
(Source: European Commission Impact Assessment
* when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note:
Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).*

Please note:
Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A
The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016.
B
The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016.
C
The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.
