Abstract

The safety of tyres is an integral part of an ideal vehicle. Along with the safety, the tyres' emissions are also a concern nowadays. In this article impact of various factors that directly or indirectly impact tyre performance is explored and tested a set of tyres to analyze factors like rolling resistance, minimum breaking energy, endurance, durability, and strength by conducting three tests specified according to the Bureau of Indian Standards and UN Global Technical Regulation. The test outcomes were used to identify the exclusions present in Indian Standards if any, and changes were recommended to align them better with the global standards. As per the tests performed, we reached to the conclusion that we can test the tyres with a higher load threshold, as the value of breaking energy calculated as per IS 15633 was half the value calculated according to UN GTR.
