The efficiency class label evaluated based on customer preferences.
Delticom centralized survey results from more than 40.000 customers from 15 European countries and created this index.
The evolution of the FD1, Federal's all new and improved Formoza FD2, all the performance and comfort features of the FD1 plus Federal Technology Center's newest add-on, D.P.E.T. (Disorder Pitch Evolution Theory) to reduce noise levels to the minimum while maintaining performance and handling capabilities. This extension of the popular Formoza series provides the performance and comfort you need, with the looks to crave for.
Features
* Variable sub-grooves in the shoulder blocks further reduces impact noise for improved noise comfort * 3 in 1 innovative groove design reduces vibration and pulsation frequency disturbing even to the most discerning driver * Wider Solid Central Rib increases straight line stability and on-center feel * Wide circumferential grooves and tread pattern promotes rapid water evacuation and prevents hydro-planing for confident and safe driving on wet/damp surfaces * Computer-designed tread elements + finite element modeling for a stable footprint and even + long tread wear * Affordable pricing
The Formoza FD2 is an affordable performance tyre suitable for the family car, fleet, government and commercial use.
New from Federal, it features the latest in worldwide tyre technology.
This is the tyre for the quality conscious buyer who wants an affordable performance tyre with excellent life.
The Tire Labeling Ordinance specifies the information requirements on fuel efficiency, wet grip and external rolling noise from tires. In addition, reference is made to the winter properties of the product.
The EU 1222/2009 regulation that has been in force since November 1st, 2012 has been revised and will be replaced by regulation EU 2020/740 from May 1st, 2021; From this point on, new requirements apply. The rating classes for fuel efficiency, wet grip and exterior noise have been changed and the layout of the EU label has been adjusted. The manufacturer's product data sheets stored in the EU database can be downloaded via a QR code integrated into the label. Information on snow grip and ice grip is also newly included for tires that meet these criteria.
The following tires are exempt from the regulation: - tires that are designed exclusively for installation on vehicles that were first registered before October 1, 1990 - retreaded tires (until a corresponding extension of EU VO 2020/740 has taken place) - professional off - Road tires - Racing tires - Tires with additional devices to improve traction, eg studded tires - T-type emergency tires - Tires with a permissible speed below 80 km/h - Tires for rims with a nominal diameter ≤ 254 mm or ≥ 635 mm
The criteria and evaluation classes at a glance
fuel efficiency
The fuel consumption depends on the rolling resistance of the tyres, the vehicle itself, the driving conditions and the driving style of the driver. The measured rolling resistance (rolling resistance coefficient) of the tire is divided into classes A (highest efficiency) to E (lowest efficiency).
If a vehicle is completely equipped with class A tires, a consumption reduction of up to 7.5%* is possible compared to class E tyres. In the case of commercial vehicles, it can even be higher. (Source: European Commission Impact Assessment * when measured according to the test methods set out in Regulation (EU) 2020/740)
Please note: Fuel consumption depends to a large extent on your own driving style and can be significantly reduced by driving in an environmentally friendly manner. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve fuel efficiency.
wet grip
Wet grip is divided into classes A (shortest braking distance) - E (longest braking distance).
If a car is equipped with class A tires, compared to class E tires, a braking distance of up to 18 m can be reduced when braking from 80 km/h (on a road surface with average grip).* *Source: wdk Economic Association of the German Rubber Industry eV
Please note: Traffic safety depends to a large extent on your own driving style. The stopping distances must always be observed. Tire pressure should be checked regularly to improve wet grip.
External rolling noise
The noise emitted by a tire affects the overall volume of the vehicle and affects not only your own driving comfort, but also the noise pollution of the environment. In the EU tire label, the external rolling noise is divided into 3 classes from A (lowest rolling noise) - C (highest rolling noise), measured in decibels (dB) and compared with the European noise emission limit values for external tire rolling noise.
A The pictogram with the classification "A" indicates that the tire's external rolling noise is more than 3 dB below the EU limit value in force until 2016. B The "B" classification means that the tyre's external rolling noise is up to 3 dB below or equal to the EU limit value in force until 2016. C The classification "C" indicates that the specified limit value is exceeded.

19.04.2016fromZach These tires are great as far as traction and wear goes, but they started cupping lightly under recommended psi (34). They also aren't that round, simply run your hand against the tread and you'll see for yourself. This causes loud internal road noise. I'd definitely recommend staying away from these tires. I did have one blow out at 80 mph and managed to make it 20 miles further home, so the run flat characteristic is very nice. In short, good wear and traction for a semi sport tire. Roundness is sub par, and they deformed early in their life.
11.09.2014fromchris very good quality for reasonable price,happy to buy
09.09.2014fromDenis Perret I have snow tire in winter. This is a must in Colorado.
01.09.2014fromlew Comfortable and quiet.
Wet grip not good, no warning grip lost.
