Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Standard all-season tyres
LDW808 has deeper tread and optimized rib contact for better ice and snow grip, while all-season tyres wear faster and offer less traction in severe winter conditions
Compared With Dedicated winter drive tyres
LDW808 is designed for all positions, so it reduces the need for separate front, drive, and trailer patterns, but a dedicated drive tyre may offer better traction in extreme off-road winter use
Compared With Summer radial tyres
Summer tyres lose grip on ice and snow and wear rapidly in winter; LDW808 maintains performance and life in cold, wet, and icy conditions
Use Guide
- Match ply rating to your actual axle load, not to the highest available rating
- Check the standard rim listed against your wheel to ensure correct fitment
- 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 uneven load distribution
- Inspect tread depth regularly; replace when wear indicators are visible or below 4 mm
LDW808 Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 245/70R17.5 or 225/70R19.5 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?
19 sizes: 6.00R14LT, 6.50R16LT, 7.00R16LT, 7.50R16LT, 8.25R16LT, 245/70R17.5 (14, 16, 18PR), 225/70R19.5 (12, 14PR), 215/75R17.5 (14, 16PR), 235/75R17.5 (14PR). Full load index, rim, and pressure data is in the size table.
Is this tyre legal for winter use?
It carries the L, M, J, and L/M speed symbols, and is designed for winter conditions. Confirm your destination market’s winter tyre regulations 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.
