Proposal for a new UN Regulation on the approval of new pneumatic tyres of class C1 conforming to UN R117 with regard to their tyre abrasion performance, excluding temporary-use spare tyres, tyres with rim diameter ≤13 or ≥25, competition tyres, tyres for vehicles of categories other than M1–M3, N1–N3, O1–O4, ice grip tyres, studded tyres, speed category less than 120 km/h, special use tyres, and road legal race tyres. Abrasion index limits are 1.00 for normal and snow tyres, with adjustments for specific groups. Approval requires marking with approval reference number and suffix (A1 or A2). Testing uses either vehicle test method on public open roads (~8000 km) or indoor drum test method (5044 km), with test facilities demonstrating equivalence per Annex 4. From 1 July 2028, stage 1 approvals required for new types; from 30 June 2030, all types. From 1 July 2033, stage 2 approvals required for new types; from 30 June 2035, all types. Until 1 July 2028, test results from tests performed |
