I've heard that it is from various other sources!

I'd rather take note of a tyre test that does back to back tests with different tyres in the same size etc.. Rather than a label (for the clueless general motoring population) that's generated by the manufacturer!

Whatever the banding the tyres are in the tests show clearly that they're not a patch on the more premium brands.

It doesn't bother me (I'll just have to remember not to anchor on in the wet if the car behind me is shod in Falkens!)
