The block pattern is structured for consistent braking and grip under normal regional duty, with a tread depth optimized for moderate wear life.
What D915 Is Built For
D915 is a radial truck tyre designed for drive axle use on regional delivery and distribution fleets that operate on paved roads with occasional light off-road exposure. The block pattern is structured for consistent braking and grip under normal regional duty, with a tread depth optimized for moderate wear life. It is supplied in two sizes: 295/60R22.5 and 315/60R22.5, both with 16 ply rating, suitable for medium-duty trucks and buses operating in urban and suburban environments. The tyre carries the M speed symbol and is marked for ETRTO operation standards.
Manufacturer Feature Claims
- Typical block pattern design suitable for the drive axle of trucks

Problems It Solves
- Drive tyres that lose grip on wet or dry paved roads due to inadequate tread pattern design
- Premature wear on drive axles caused by insufficient tread depth for regional duty cycles
- Inconsistent performance across drive tyres due to mismatched ply rating and load index

- Need to source multiple tyre patterns for different vehicle types within a regional fleet
Who It Is For
- Regional fleet operators managing delivery trucks and buses in urban and suburban zones

- Importers sourcing drive-axle tyres for medium-duty trucks used in city and suburban logistics
- Fleet managers replacing tyres that fail due to inadequate grip or premature wear on paved routes
- Government and municipal transport departments procuring tyres for regional public transport fleets
Application Scenarios
- Regional delivery trucks running daily between distribution hubs and retail outlets on paved roads
- Urban and suburban bus fleets operating on city routes with occasional access to gravel service roads
- Distribution vans and light haul trucks making multiple deliveries in mixed urban and suburban zones
- Fleets that require consistent drive-axle performance without the need for off-road or high-speed endurance
- Operators replacing drive tyres that wear out quickly due to poor grip or irregular tread wear on paved surfaces
Technical Features
- Radial truck tyre with block pattern designed for drive axle use on regional routes
- Tread depth of 17.5 mm on 295/60R22.5 and 19.5 mm on 315/60R22.5 for moderate wear life
- M speed symbol allows operation up to 130 km/h, suitable for regional highway use
- ETRTO-rated construction ensures compatibility with European regional fleet standards
- Standard rim sizes of 9.00 for 295/60R22.5 and 9.75 for 315/60R22.5 ensure proper fitment

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Long-haul drive tyres with higher ply ratings and deeper tread
D915 is optimized for regional duty with moderate tread depth and 16PR; long-haul tyres last longer on highways but wear faster on urban stop-start cycles
Compared With Off-road or mining drive tyres
D915 has a shallower tread and lighter construction; off-road tyres are built for impact and mud but are noisier and wear faster on paved roads
Compared With Tyres with higher speed symbols like N or H
D915 has an M speed symbol, suitable for regional speeds up to 130 km/h; higher speed tyres are not necessary for urban and suburban routes
Use Guide
- Match ply rating and load index to your actual axle load and rim width; 16PR is suitable for regional delivery trucks
- Check the standard rim listed: 9.00 for 295/60R22.5, 9.75 for 315/60R22.5
- Inflate to 900 kPa for both dual and single fitments as specified in the size table
- Rotate drive positions before irregular wear sets in, especially on fleets with one-way loading patterns
- Inspect tread for uneven wear after 5000 km to ensure consistent grip and load distribution
D915 Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 295/60R22.5 or 315/60R22.5 typically fills at container weight rather than volume, so the practical minimum is one container. Mixed loads across sizes and patterns are accepted.
What is the lead time?
It depends on whether the size is in stock at the plant or has to be produced. We confirm current availability with the plant at the time of quotation rather than quoting a standard figure.
Which sizes are available?
295/60R22.5 and 315/60R22.5, both with 16 ply rating. Full load index, rim and pressure data for each is in the size table on this page.
Is this tyre legal for regional use?
It is ETRTO-rated and carries the M speed symbol, which is standard for regional delivery and distribution fleets in Europe and other markets.
Can you supply DOT or ECE marked tyres?
Marking requirements vary by destination. Tell us the import market and we confirm what marking the plant can supply on that size before you place the order.
What warranty do you give?
One year against manufacturing defect on all tyres we supply, with claims handled by us directly. Cargo transportation insurance is provided on the shipment itself.
Can you ship a mixed container with other patterns?
Yes. Most of our customers load one container across several patterns and sizes, which is the main reason to buy through us rather than from a single plant.
