KTA303-New is a radial truck tyre designed for national and regional transport fleets operating across varied road conditions, from paved highways to light unpaved surfaces. It is suitable for all axle positions—steering, drive, and trailer—on medium-duty trucks and buses.

What KTA303-New Is Built For
KTA303-New is a radial truck tyre designed for national and regional transport fleets operating across varied road conditions, from paved highways to light unpaved surfaces. It is suitable for all axle positions—steering, drive, and trailer—on medium-duty trucks and buses. The shoulder block design is optimized to resist shoulder damage from lateral forces and kerb contact, while the stone rejection feature helps prevent aggregate from lodging in the tread grooves. HAT technology reduces heat buildup during sustained operation, improving casing longevity. The tyre is available in 25 sizes across multiple ply ratings and load indices, covering common configurations in regional logistics and urban delivery operations.

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Highway-only radial truck tyres
KTA303-New handles light unpaved surfaces better due to shoulder reinforcement and stone rejection; highway-only tyres may wear faster on rough access roads
Compared With Dedicated off-road truck tyres
KTA303-New runs quieter and wears slower on paved roads; off-road tyres degrade quickly on highways and generate more noise
Compared With Single-axle position tyre patterns
Using one pattern for all axles reduces stock complexity and fitting labour; separate patterns for each axle increase inventory and operational cost
Use Guide
- Match ply rating to actual axle load, not to the highest available rating—overspecifying increases cost and ride harshness
- Verify standard rim width against your wheel: 6.00 for 385/65R22.5, 6.75 for 9.5R17.5, 7.0 for 9.00R20, 8.25 for 11R22.5, 9.00 for 295/80R22.5 and 315/80R22.5
- Inflate to the pressure shown for your load in the size table; dual and single fitment pressures differ
- Rotate tyres before irregular wear sets in, especially on fleets with one-way loading patterns
- Inspect groove bottoms for lodged stone after every trip on unpaved access roads to protect the casing
KTA303-New Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 9.00R20 or 315/80R22.5 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?
25 sizes listed: 9.00R20, 10.00R20, 11.00R20, 12.00R20, 9.5R17.5, 11R22.5, 295/80R22.5, 315/80R22.5, 215/75R17.5, 235/75R17.5, 265/70R19.5, 385/65R22.5. Full load index, rim, and pressure data for each is in the size table.
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 all axle positions?
Yes. KTA303-New is designed for steering, drive, and trailer axles on trucks and buses used in national and regional transport.
