Honest comparison

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not

Compared With Generic UHP tyres from multiple small suppliers

CrossWind UHP offers consistent tread depth, load index and speed symbol across all sizes, reducing risk of mismatched fitment and compliance issues

Compared With Non-directional UHP tyres

The directional pattern improves water evacuation and reduces hydroplaning risk on wet surfaces, especially at higher speeds

Compared With Tyres with lower tread depth (e.g. 6.5 mm)

7.7–7.8 mm tread depth ensures longer wear life and better performance in wet conditions compared to shallow-tread alternatives

Fitting and use

Use Guide

  • Match load index and speed symbol to your vehicle’s original equipment specification
  • Use the standard rim width listed in the size table to ensure proper fit and load capacity
  • Inflate to the pressure shown in the size table for your load; underinflation reduces lifespan and increases rolling resistance
  • Rotate tyres before irregular wear sets in, especially on vehicles with uneven load distribution
  • Inspect tread depth regularly; all sizes have 7.7–7.8 mm initial depth, so wear rate is predictable
Questions

CrossWind UHP Buying Questions

What is the minimum order quantity?

We load by full container. A 40HQ of CrossWind UHP typically fills by 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 needs to be produced. We confirm current availability with the plant at the time of quotation.

Which sizes are available?

26 sizes from 195/45R16 XL to 235/30R20 XL. Full load index, speed symbol, rim and pressure data for each is in the size table.

Is this tyre legal for high-speed use?

Speed symbols range from V (240 km/h) to Y (300 km/h). Confirm your market’s legal speed limit and vehicle requirements before ordering.

Can you supply DOT or ECE marked tyres?

Marking requirements vary by destination. Tell us your import market and we confirm what marking the plant can supply on that size before order placement.

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.

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.
