The EU Tire Label Provides the End-User with Information About the Tire's Most Important Properties. However, it Does Not Provide All Critical Safety Criteria.
Explaining additional tire properties can exert a sustained influence on the purchasing decision.

The tires test check many other performance factors, including the following:
Aquaplaning properties
Driving stability
Steering precision
Service life
