About Duraman Tour 01 215/55 R16 97W

Wet-Road Performance

The Tour 01 is positioned as a road-oriented touring tyre for normal passenger-car use. Its tread is intended for predictable behaviour on paved roads, while the 215 mm footprint provides a practical contact area for everyday driving. Exact wet-grip labelling for this 215/55 R16 97W variant has not been independently confirmed, so a specific EU wet-grip grade should not be assumed.

Wet Braking

Wet braking performance depends on the tread condition, tyre pressure, road surface, temperature and vehicle setup. No independently verified wet-braking test result or official wet-grip classification was found specifically for the 215/55 R16 97W Tour 01 configuration.

Dry-Road Handling

The 215/55 R16 profile offers a balance between steering response and everyday road comfort. The W speed rating indicates that this particular version is designed for speeds up to 270 km/h under the applicable tyre-rating conditions. It is intended for paved-road passenger-car use rather than off-road driving.

Ride Comfort and Noise

The 55-series sidewall provides a practical compromise between road response and ride compliance. The external rolling-noise value for this exact 215/55 R16 97W version has not been independently confirmed, so no specific decibel figure is assigned.

Rolling Resistance

No verified rolling-resistance or fuel-efficiency classification was found for the exact 215/55 R16 97W Tour 01. For this reason, a specific EU efficiency grade is not stated.

Summer Road Use

Available Duraman Tour 01 listings describe the pattern as a summer passenger-car tyre for normal urban and highway driving. It is therefore best considered for warm-weather paved-road use rather than severe winter conditions.

Load Capacity

The 97 load index corresponds to a maximum rated load of 730 kg per tyre. The 215/55 R16 97W specification should only be fitted when its load index and size meet or exceed the vehicle manufacturer's approved requirements.

W Speed Rating

The W speed rating corresponds to a maximum rated speed of 270 km/h under the applicable tyre-rating conditions. The speed rating does not mean that the vehicle should be driven at that speed; actual safe speed depends on the vehicle, road, tyre condition, pressure and legal limits.

Vehicle Compatibility

Duraman Tour 01 215/55 R16 97W is intended for passenger-car applications using the 215/55 R16 size. Before installation, confirm the vehicle placard or manufacturer's specification for tyre size, load index and speed rating. The 2024 listing identifies China as the country of origin and provides a one-year warranty.
