The GOIE on Tyre Noise Level Alignment in UN R117 targets reducing dispersion of measurements for tyres of Class C1 and C2 and investigating possibility to develop a test method with an SRTT as reference. An intermediate report will be presented to GRBP in September 2026, with a Working Document proposing evolution of the test method by September 2027. Five meetings have been held with 13 test centres from France, Japan, Netherlands, Spain and ETRTO. Eight of thirteen test centres have completed tests on 15 C1 and 5 C2 Japanese market tyres, with completion targeted for mid-2026.
