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.
BMW 6 and 7 Series models run wider tyres at the rear, which are 275/40 R18, and 245/45 R18 at the front. 275 is the rear tyre's width in mm; 40 is the sidewall height in relation to the width, which is 275mm, giving 110mm sidewall height. R means radial and 18 is the size of the rim the tyre can be fitted to. This also gives the tyre an overall diameter of 677mm. This sidewall works best with the whole setup. Tyres.co.uk supplies 275/40 R18 and its run-flat and XL variants.
