Engineered as a summer option for everyday driving, the Austone Athena SP 7 22545R17 94W measures 225 mm across with a 45% aspect ratio, fitting 17-inch wheels.
With a 94 load index (up to 670 kg / 1477 lbs) and a W speed rating (up to 270 km/h / 168 mph), this tire falls into the C1 class, aimed at drivers looking for solid performance without a premium price tag.
No rim protection is built in here, meaning the wheel edge isn’t specifically shielded from curb contact. Run-flat technology isn’t part of this model, so standard puncture precautions apply. The construction is reinforced for higher load capacity — check your vehicle registration documents to see if this is required for your car.
Its EU label ratings come in at C for fuel efficiency, A for wet grip, and B for rolling noise (72 dB), placing it in the mid-range for road noise.
As useful as the EU label is, it doesn’t cover every factor — things like dry-weather grip, aquaplaning resistance, and tread wear fall outside the official scoring.
