North American All-Season Tyre Pre-meeting TYREGTR-19-03 Agenda item 8.1 GRB-68-xx Agenda item 19 North American All-Season Tyre Pre-meeting Ottawa, Canada June 11, 2018

Background At its November 2016 meeting, WP.29 voted to amend GTR No. 16 on Tyres. One change updated the wet grip test to the most recent version of the United Nation’s Regulation No. 117 (UNECE R117). The U.S. voted yes to this amendment, even though it had abstained when the GTR was originally established. However, the U.S. asked that the following sentence be added to paragraph 44 of the Technical Rational for the GTR - “Following additional technical evaluation of the adhesion performance on wet surfaces (section 3.12), a future additional category of use might be necessary for certain tyre types typical in the North American market.”

Tyre Types The GTR currently includes two tyre designations: “normal tyre” means a tyre intended for normal on-road use; and, “snow tyre” means a tyre whose tread pattern, tread compound, or structure is primarily designed to achieve in snow conditions a performance better than that of a normal tyre with regard to its ability to initiate or maintain vehicle motion. In a market where these two tyre types is common, operators would typically use a normal tyre on their vehicle in warmer months and switch to a snow tyre for colder months. An all-season tyre is designed to blend dry, wet and wintertime traction. In a market where operators expect to only encounter cold temperatures, light or limited snowfall, or live in municipalities that do a good job of snow plowing, all-season-tyres are often used year-round instead of either normal or snow tyres.

Meeting Presentations “Testing to Benchmark the Wet Traction Performance of Tire Models For Sale in the U.S.” (United States; TYREGTR-18-20) “Environmental and Safety Performance of Commercially Available Light-duty Tire Models in North America” (Canada; TYREGTR-18-28) “Wet Grip Test Method Improvement for Passenger Car Tires (C1)” (ETRTO; TYREGTR-18-21) “USTMA Temperature Sensitivity Analysis and Surface Validation Data” (USTMA; TYREGTR-18-22)

Conclusions Future amendment of the GTR to include a new category for the North American all-season tyre is needed. Clear definitions for the different tyre types is needed. Reference slide 16 of the ETRTO presentation. Work to amend the GTR should be considered at a future date after the completion of Phase 2. The United States is currently engaged in updating its national regulations which limits its current involvement. Amendment of the ISO standard based on the ETRTO research should be complete.
