Falken ESPIA EPZ II TIRE

Confident Winter Traction

The ESPIA EPZ II ensures driving confidence in the harshest winter conditions. Using the latest technology in tread design, compound and construction, the EPZ II is an excellent blend of winter performance and longer tread wear. The zigzag shape of the main groove is designed to provide resistance to hydroplaning while the tread notches create biting edges for traction on snow and ice. ESPIA EPZ II, designed for the most unforgiving winters. 

“NEWLY ENHANCED” 3D CANYON SIPE TECHNOLOGY
with a much thinner sipe design increases sipe density by 25% (then its predecessor) which allows for more edges per tread block. This increases ice braking and enhances snow and wet traction.

WIDE LATERAL GROOVES
work together with wide pockets built into the tire to allow more snow to pack into the tread, clearing the road surface quicker for increased snow traction in slushy or deep snow conditions.

WIDE CIRCUMFERENTIAL GROOVES
channel water away from the tread for consistent contact with the road surface, increasing wet traction and driver confidence.

HIGH-DENSITY SIPES
move water and snow away from the tread surface for continuous road connection with over 13,000 milimeters in edges added from its predecessor.

STRATEGICALLY DESIGNED RIB PLACEMENT
is ideal for excellent handling no matter the road surface condition. Larger outer-edge block-style ribs provide a comfortable and stable drive while maneuvering the vehicle.

SPECIALIZED RUBBER TREAD COMPOUND
provides pliability at low temperatures for excellent winter driving ability in snowy and icy conditions.

 EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes

EU Tyre Label and Efficiency Classes

The European Union has introduced the EU Tyre Label by Regulation (No. 1222/2009) identically and bindingly for all EU member states. It applies to passenger car tyres, light commercial vehicle tyres and heavy commercial vehicle tyres produced after 01.07.2012.

Three different areas are tested: rolling resistance, wet grip and the rolling noise the tyre makes on the road.

The following are not affected by the EU Tyre Label: retreaded tyres, professional off-road tyres, racing tyres, tyres with additional devices to improve traction such as spiked tyres, T-type emergency tyres, special tyres for fitting to vehicles first registered before 1 October 1990, tyres with a maximum authorised speed of 80 km/h, tyres for rims with a nominal diameter of 254 mm or less or 635 mm or more.

With this regulation, the European Union is pursuing the goal of promoting economic and ecological efficiency in road traffic as well as increasing road safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, granting consumers more product transparency and at the same time serving as an active decision-making aid.

Already during the incorporation, experts criticise the fact that the EU Tyre Label unfortunately only shows a few product characteristics. Apart from rolling resistance, wet grip and rolling noise, which are the main focus of EU tyre labelling, tyres have much more important and safety-relevant product characteristics, such as aquaplaning properties, driving stability, service life, braking properties on dry and wet roads, behaviour in wintry conditions, etc.

Tyre manufacturers point out that test results from various institutions and journals remain an important information medium for the end consumer. These tests usually focus on further safety-relevant product characteristics besides the EU standard qualifications for tyre labelling, which are always important for the final customer.
