Mythos is the point of reference for those who want to enjoy performance in full safety.
Aficionados of the Marangoni range will know that the Mythos name is not new, but rather a welcome reconfirmation. Today more than ever Mythos is the winning choice for drivers who want to combine excellent dynamic characteristics on both the dry and the wet with excellent resistance to aquaplaning.
Mythos is ideal for coupes, high performance sedans and all modern sports cars, thanks to its solid shoulders that guarantee maximum lateral stability, sporting and aggressive tread pattern and above all to the use of CVR to optimise the footprint, increasing grip on both dry and wet roads.
Advanced PST technology, moreover, guarantees a structure with a high load coefficient, meaning precise driving, safety in all conditions, even on wet bitumen, without neglecting comfort and low noise.
• Mythos is also available in one size in the SUV version.
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.

19.04.2013fromRemco Total lack of grip. Even worse in the rain.
28.09.2011fromChris These tires are great at first, but after about 1000 miles, they start to lose their front-back grip, so launching your car results in wheel hop. Lateral grip is EXCELLENT, and turning is superb with these, but they are not for drag racing. THey resist hydroplaning very well and grip nicely on wet pavement. Anything under 50 degrees -- watch out. They stiffen up and have NO grip in cold, snow, or ice.
12.09.2011fromBrian Q Still plenty of tread left on tyres after 15000km but sidewalls collapsed on both within a 1000km of each other. Would never buy again and i have been told i am not the only one this has happened to.
18.07.2011fromchris Really good wear - compared to bridgestone RE050A(very poor) and Falken Ze512 (average). Grip is on par (wet and dry) with the above two.
