The Star Performer Interstellar summer tyre is meticulously designed to cater to passenger cars, setting a new benchmark in the industry for its outstanding price-performance ratio. This tyre is a harmonious blend of superior performance, exceptional comfort, and advanced safety features, all while being remarkably cost-effective. Below are the defining attributes of the Star Performer Interstellar:
Unparalleled Comfort: The engineering finesse of the Star Performer Interstellar is evident in its optimized profile and rubber compound. These innovations are central to providing a driving experience that is both quiet and supremely comfortable, thereby elevating the overall quality of the ride for passengers.
Superior Safety: With a keen focus on safety, the Interstellar features a specialized tread compound and design. This results in enhanced traction and stability, particularly on wet and rainy roads, thus ensuring a high level of safety even in challenging weather conditions.
Cost-Effective Quality: As a proud offering under our own Star Performer brand, the Interstellar tyre represents an optimal choice for consumers who are mindful of their budget yet unwilling to compromise on quality. It exemplifies affordability without sacrificing performance.
Reduced Noise Emission: The tyre is engineered to have a low noise emission, contributing to a quieter and more enjoyable driving experience. This characteristic underscores our commitment to providing comfort alongside performance.
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.
If you value a balanced combination of price and quality, Star Performer tyres are an excellent choice. We offer our in-house brand at a particularly attractive price without compromising on performance. Star Performer tyres consistently stand out in various tests for their outstanding grip properties, enhancing handling and increasing your safety.
A key feature of Star Performer tyres is the tread design with a special silica compound. This compound reduces abrasion, potentially extending the tyre’s lifespan (depending on driving style). An additional benefit: the tyres are also available with rim protection on request, identified by the MFS marking on the tyre sidewall.
