Proposal to introduce a definition for “Extended Mobility Tyre” based on a new “minimum requirement” performance test procedure with the relevant pictogram to be used to properly distinguish such tyres. This document will be handled by GRB during its 68th session and is referenced under GRVA due to the “conversion” of GRRF.

Proposal to

1. modify the scope with regard to Category S and R agricultural vehicles,
2. modify the paragraph numbering (and related footnotes) to improve text clarity,
3. to correct an error in Annex 5 Table 7 where “35×16” should read “36×16”,
4. amend Annex 7 Part E to address variations of load-carrying capacity for tyres for construction applications (industrial tractors or skid-steers / mini-loaders) with speed category symbol “D”.

Proposal to update the original authorization pursuant to the transfer of responsibility for tyre regulations from GRRF (now GRVA) to GRB (expected to become GRBP).
