Department of Transportation, responsible for tyre safety
standards.

2213
Date of manufacture: 22nd week in 2013.
Relative life expectancy for the tyre, with reference to a US-
specific standard test. Tyres with the specification 280 wear
at a rate of 2.8 times more slowly than standard tyres that
have a treadwear value of 100. The performance of tyres is
determined by how they are used and can significantly de-
viate from standard values due to driving style, mainte-
nance, road surface and climatic conditions.
Wet braking performance of the tyre (AA, A, B or C). The
wet braking performance is tested under controlled condi-
tions on certified test tracks. Tyres marked C have a low
traction performance. The traction value assigned to the
tyres is based on linear traction tests and does not include
acceleration and lateral stability or aquaplaning and trac-
tion under maximum load.
Temperature stability of the tyre at high speeds on a test
bed ( A, B or C). Tyres marked A and B tyres exceed legal re-
quirements The temperature evaluation is based on tyres
with correct pressure and does not allow for excess pres-
sure. Excessive speed, incorrect pressure or excess pressure
can cause heat build-up or tyre damage. This applies to one
or a combination of these factors.
