How much fuel the tyre uses as it rolls. Graded A to E, where A is the most efficient and E the least.
How well the tyre stops in the wet. Graded A to E, where A is the shortest stopping distance. Each grade is worth roughly 3 metres, about a car length.
How loud the tyre is from outside the car, measured in decibels. Graded A to C, where A is the quietest.
Designed for cars, rather than vans, 4x4s or commercial vehicles.
A stronger sidewall lets this tyre carry more weight than a standard tyre of the same size. Marked XL on the sidewall.
Designed for temperatures below 7°C. Summer tyre rubber hardens in the cold and loses grip, while a winter compound stays soft and holds the road in cold, wet and snowy conditions.
Built to handle both summer and winter conditions, so the same tyres can stay on all year instead of being swapped twice.
Some compact SUVs and family cars use the size 205/60 R17 tyres. The large sidewall reduces the impact of potholes and bumps on the road. The first number is the width, so 205 is the width in mm. The second is the ratio of the width, so the sidewall is 60% of the width. The width is 205mm so 60% of that is 123mm. The R means radial and the 17 means that it fits on a 17-inch rim. This gives the tyre an overall diameter of 678mm. At Tyres.co.uk, you can get 205/60 R17 and XL versions as well.
