The depth (p) of the recess situated in the vertical plane of the tyre axis, measured from the outward and inward edges of the wheel guard at the vertical longitudinal plane passing through the centre of the tyre inside the wheel guard, shall be at least 30 mm. This depth (p) may be reduced progressively to zero towards the radial planes specified in paragraph 2.1.1.

The tyres must have full tread depth before being run-in.

The tread pattern of snow tyres generally consists of grooves and/or blocks which are more widely spaced than those of a normal tyre;

'The tyres used for the test are selected by the vehicle manufacturer and shall comply with commercial practice and be available on the market; they shall correspond to one of the tyre-size designations (see item 2.17. of Annex II to Council Directive 92/23/EEC (*)) indicated for the vehicle by the vehicle manufacturer according to item 1.5. of the Addendum to Appendix 2 and in the case of vehicles of categories M1 and N1 meet the requirements of Directive 89/459/EEC regarding the minimum tread depth; for vehicles of other categories, the minimum tread depth specified in Directive 89/459/EEC will be applied as if the vehicles were with ...[+++]in the scope of that Directive.
