Reduced risk of aquaplaning
High level of safety thanks to short braking distances on dry surfaces
Icreased driving comfort thanks to reduced noise levels for a pleasant journey
Fits perfectly for example to Mercedes Sprinter, Fiat Ducato and Ford Transit
Technical details
Safety: aquaplaning protection
Three wide circumferential drainage grooves
Water drains quickly when driving on wet surfaces
Reduced risk of aquaplaning
Safety: dry braking
Tie bars in the centre of the pattern and stable block type tread
Optimised tread rigidity and increased stability in circumferential blocks
High level of safety thanks to short braking distances on dry surfaces
Cost-effectiveness: flat contour
Flat tire contour and wear-optimised compound
Increased ground contact area and thus tread wear volume
Excellent price-perfomance ratio thanks to improved mileage
Cost-effectiveness: scuff rib
Robust sidewall with additional rubber layer
Sidewall protection if kerb is chafed
Very economic due to extended life of tire
Comfort: noise reduction
Noise breaker in shoulder area
Noise cannot penetrate outwards thanks to closed shoulder grooves
Increased driving comfort thanks to reduced noise levels for a pleasant journey
High level of safety thanks to short braking distances on dry surfaces. Tie bars in the pattern centre and stable block type tread ensure optimised stiffness distribution in the pattern and increase the longitudinal stability in the blocks. This shortens braking distances on dry roads and increases safety.
Excellent price-performance ratio thanks to improved mileage. The flat contour gives the Vanis 2 a large ground contact area which leads to a higher wear volume. In addition the low-wear compound increases the mileage and therefore the economy.
Increased driving comfort thanks to reduced noise level. Noise breakers in the shoulder section reduce road noise and improve driving comfort.
The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.
Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.
The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.
With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.
Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.
Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
