Starting note on tyre selection:
Presentation by K. Steininger (WLTP-08-18e). Proposal of EU-COM was discussed in the TF for Annex 4 without conclusion. Comprehensive information from ETRTO / tyre manufacturers regarding the distribution of rolling resistance values of aftermarket tyres within classes is still missing. Contracting Parties were not in a position to decide to add the issue to the open issue list of WLTP IWG or to reject it (means unchanged gtr provisions). Conclusion of WLTP IWG: RLD TF should not continue the discussions until the necessary data is available.

Independent from the EU COM proposal NL proposed that the gtr should reference to the ISO standard instead of R117 for determination of rolling resistance. NL (A. Rijnders) will provide a proposal for pre-discussion in the RLD TF and possible adoption at IWG meeting #9.
