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.
225/55 R17 is a common size for larger executive cars like the BMW 5 Series and the Mercedes E-Class. The size can be broken down as follows. 225 is the width of the tyre in mm. 55 is the sidewall height as a percentage of the tyre width, so 55% of 225mm is 124mm. R17 means it is a radial tyre that fits 17-inch rims and therefore has an overall diameter of 679mm. This has a nice balance of comfort for everyday driving. At Tyres.co.uk, we have 225/55 R17 available in both runflat and XL varieties.
