Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Standard steer tyres without hidden groove design
The hidden groove design in ETS100-New maintains grip and reduces noise over long distances, while standard patterns degrade faster in high-speed highway use
Compared With Tyres designed for mixed-surface or off-road use
ETS100-New is optimized for highway operation; off-road patterns wear faster and increase fuel consumption on paved routes
Compared With Tyres with higher ply ratings but no low rolling resistance feature
ETS100-New reduces fuel consumption through low rolling resistance, even though it uses lower ply ratings in some sizes
Use Guide
- Match ply rating to your actual axle load, not to the highest available rating – overspecifying increases cost and reduces ride comfort
- Check the standard rim listed: 9.00 for 315/80R22.5, 315/70R22.5 and 295/60R22.5; 9.75 for 315/60R22.5
- Inflate to the pressure shown in the size table for your load and fitment – dual and single pressures differ
- Monitor tread depth regularly; the 13.0 mm depth on 295/60R22.5 is the shallowest and may reach wear limit sooner
- Rotate steer tyres before irregular wear sets in, especially on fleets with one-way routes or uneven load distribution
ETS100-New Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 315/80R22.5 or 295/60R22.5 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?
315/80R22.5 in 18, 20 and 22PR; 315/70R22.5 in 16 and 18PR; 315/60R22.5 in 16 and 18PR; 295/60R22.5 in 16PR. Full load index, rim and pressure data for each is in the size table on this page.
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.
Is this tyre suitable for high-speed highway use?
Yes. It is designed for steer axle use on highways with high-speed operation, with low rolling resistance and stability features built into the pattern.
