- Regional
KLS200-Regional is a radial steer axle truck tyre designed for regional haul fleets that operate on paved roads with moderate off-road exposure. The tread pattern is engineered for even wear across long service cycles, with a focus on maintaining consistent tread depth and minimizing lateral deviation. It is built for retreading, with a casing life that supports multiple retread cycles.
What KLS200-Regional Is Built For
KLS200-Regional is a radial steer axle truck tyre designed for regional haul fleets that operate on paved roads with moderate off-road exposure. The tread pattern is engineered for even wear across long service cycles, with a focus on maintaining consistent tread depth and minimizing lateral deviation. It is built for retreading, with a casing life that supports multiple retread cycles. The tyre carries the M and J speed symbols, suitable for regional speeds up to 100 km/h and 130 km/h respectively. Eight sizes are available across 265/70R19.5, 285/70R19.5, and 305/70R19.5, with ply ratings from 14 to 18 and load indices from 136/134 to 148/145. It is supplied in mixed container loads from Chinese, Thai and Cambodian plants.
Manufacturer Feature Claims
- Long life
- Retreadability
- Low eccentric wear
Key Benefits
- Long life tread pattern reduces replacement frequency on regional routes
- Retreadability supported by casing construction for multiple retread cycles
- Low eccentric wear minimizes steering pull and improves alignment stability
- Eight sizes cover most regional steer axle fitments in 19.5-inch rim trucks
- Load index up to 148/145 and speed symbol J allow higher load and speed on long hauls
Problems It Solves
- Steer tyres that wear unevenly due to poor tread pattern design or casing flex
- Early casing failure on regional routes due to lack of retreadability or weak construction
- Frequent alignment adjustments caused by eccentric wear and steering pull
- Multiple steer patterns needed for different load and speed requirements across a fleet
- High replacement cost from tyres that cannot be retreaded after one service cycle
Who It Is For
- Tyre distributors supplying regional haul fleets in Asia, the Middle East, Africa and South America
- Fleet operators replacing steer tyres that show early eccentric wear or uneven tread depth
- Importers sourcing steer tyres for mixed container loads across multiple patterns and sizes
- Contractors buying tyres by the container for captive regional service fleets
- Distributors needing a retreadable steer tyre with consistent fitment across multiple vehicle models
Application Scenarios
- Regional delivery fleets running daily routes between distribution hubs and retail outlets on paved roads with occasional gravel access
- Fleets operating regional service trucks on sealed roads with short off-road segments to construction sites
- Trucks used in municipal and utility services that travel on paved roads but access unpaved service areas
- Fleets replacing steer tyres that fail due to uneven wear or early casing loss
- Operators seeking a single steer pattern that supports retreading and consistent performance over time
Technical Features
- Radial casing construction with 13.5 mm norm tread depth across all listed sizes
- Tread pattern designed to reduce eccentric wear and maintain straight-line tracking
- Retreadable casing construction suitable for multiple retread cycles
- Standard rim sizes of 7.50, 8.25 and 9.00 match common regional truck wheel configurations

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Standard regional steer tyres without retreadability
KLS200-Regional supports multiple retread cycles, reducing long-term cost per kilometre
Compared With Steer tyres designed for long-haul highway use
This pattern prioritizes low eccentric wear and retreadability over rolling resistance and high-speed stability
Compared With Steer tyres for off-road or mining applications
It is not built for deep mud or rock impacts; its casing and tread are optimized for paved and lightly graded surfaces
Use Guide
- Match ply rating to your actual axle load, not to the highest available rating – overspecifying increases cost and ride harshness
- Check the standard rim listed against your wheel: 7.50 for 265/70R19.5, 8.25 for 285/70R19.5, 9.00 for 305/70R19.5
- Inflate to the pressure shown for your load in the size table; dual and single fitment pressures differ
- Inspect tread depth and alignment every 5000 km to detect early eccentric wear
- Retread only when tread depth reaches 2.0 mm or below, following the plant’s retreading guidelines
KLS200-Regional Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 265/70R19.5 or 305/70R19.5 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?
265/70R19.5 in 14PR, 16PR, 18PR; 285/70R19.5 in 18PR; 305/70R19.5 in 16PR and 18PR. Full load index, rim and pressure data for each is in the size table on this page.
Is this tyre retreadable?
Yes. The casing is designed for multiple retread cycles. Confirm the retreading policy with the plant before ordering.
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.
