The label provides basic information on threeessential aspects of a tire’s performance (fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise) to help consumers make an informed choice. However, the label does not cover all parameters related to the overall performance of a tire. By comparison, independent surveys carried  out  by  automotive  magazines  cover  on  average fifteenaspects  of  tire  performance,  while Goodyear  analyses  over fiftycriteria,  including  aquaplaning  resistance,  dry  handling,  dry  braking,  high speed stability, milage and many more. Therefore, the label cannot replace quality testing byspecialized laboratories or information provided by manufacturers and others, which use a wider range of criteria to assess tire performance.
