Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Radial truck tyres with similar load index
LL168 offers lower rolling resistance and better casing life under heavy load but may have shorter tread life on high-speed routes
Compared With Other bias tyres with lower ply ratings
LL168 supports higher load indices and greater casing strength, suitable for sustained heavy-duty use
Compared With Tyres with lower tread depth
LL168’s tread depth of up to 15.0 mm supports longer casing life and retreadability
Use Guide
- Match ply rating and load index to your actual axle load and rim width; do not overspecify
- Check the inflation pressure listed in the size table for your load and fitment
- Use the correct rim width as specified: 5.50F for 6.50-16LT, 6.50H for 8.25-16LT, 8.5 for 12.00-20
- Rotate tyres before irregular wear sets in, especially on vehicles with one-way loading
- Inspect tread depth regularly; tyres with 10.0 mm depth are suitable for heavy load but may wear faster
LL168 Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 12.00-20 or 11.00-20 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.
Which sizes are available?
13 sizes: 6.50-16LT, 7.00-16LT, 7.50-16LT, 7.50-20, 8.25-16LT, 8.25-20, 9.00-20, 10.00-20, 11.00-20, 12.00-20. 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 retreading?
Yes. The tread depth ranges from 10.0 mm to 15.0 mm, which supports retreadability. Confirm casing condition and plant capability before retreading.
