Look beyond the label says Goodyear Dunlop

Goodyear Dunlop Ireland is welcoming the introduction of the new EU Tyre Label, which proves the top performance of the company’s products.  However it advises tyre buyers to take heed of the label but to look beyond it to ensure they get the tyres that best suit their needs.

“The tyre label is great in that it allows tyre buyers to directly compare products and help them decide which suits their needs best.  However the label only shows three performance criteria,” said Richard Warbrick, Managing Director of Goodyear Dunlop Tires Ireland.  “Goodyear Dunlop has 50 performance areas it considers when designing a tyre.  These include mileage, wear, dry grip, handling, robustness and many more.  For example there would be no economic advantage in buying a tyre with an A grade in fuel efficiency if it wore out in only a few thousand kilometres.”
