Wear is good too, according to the ADAC.de testers.

ADAC Test - Sommerreifen 2012 - 165/70 R14

See Kraftstoffverbrauch (fuel usage) and Verschleiss (wear) - lower numbers are better.


The Energy Saver is already 4 years old.
I'm looking for some LRR tires to run on the truck eventually... but those Contis only come in one 15" size (and only one 14")! The rest are 16".

Running 185's when it's wearing 205's now might look a bit weird. Are there any LRR tires with more size options?

Continental Eco Contact 5 XL Tyres

I guess Energy Savers only come in 14" though...
