LL2
- 10 sizes
- Bias
LL2 is a bias truck and bus tyre designed for regional haul, urban delivery and municipal service fleets that operate on mixed road conditions with moderate to heavy axle loads. The tread pattern is engineered for low rolling resistance and consistent wear, with a focus on resisting crack formation under repeated loading and heat buildup during stop-start cycles.
What LL2 Is Built For
LL2 is a bias truck and bus tyre designed for regional haul, urban delivery and municipal service fleets that operate on mixed road conditions with moderate to heavy axle loads. The tread pattern is engineered for low rolling resistance and consistent wear, with a focus on resisting crack formation under repeated loading and heat buildup during stop-start cycles. It is available in ten sizes across 7.00-16LT to 12.00-20, with ply ratings from 10 to 18 and load indices up to 154/150. Tread depth ranges from 12.0 mm to 15.0 mm, and the tyre carries speed symbols K and G, suitable for sustained highway and city driving. It is supplied with standard rim fitment and inflation pressure data matched to each size and load index combination.
Manufacturer Feature Claims
- Low rolling resistance
- Good Wear and crack resistance
- Good heat dissipation
Key Benefits
- Low rolling resistance reduces fuel consumption on regional and urban routes
- Good wear and crack resistance extends casing life under repeated loading
- Good heat dissipation helps prevent overheating during stop-start operation
- Ten sizes from 7.00-16LT to 12.00-20 cover light to heavy-duty truck and bus applications
- Load index up to 154/150 supports axle loads of 3350 kg single at 740 kPa on the 12.00-20 fitment
Problems It Solves
- High rolling resistance in older bias tyres increases fuel cost on daily urban routes
- Crack formation in tread and shoulder areas reduces casing life under repeated loading
- Heat buildup from stop-start cycles leads to casing failure before tread wear is complete
- Multiple tyre patterns required for different vehicle types increase stock and fitting complexity
- Lack of a single supplier for mixed container loads forces buyers to manage multiple MOQs and paperwork
Who It Is For
- Tyre distributors supplying regional and urban fleets in Asia, Africa, South America and Europe
- Fleet operators replacing bias tyres that fail prematurely due to heat or cracking
- Municipal and government buyers sourcing tyres for public transport and service vehicles
- Importers who need a consistent bias pattern across multiple sizes for mixed container loading
- Wholesale distributors buying in container quantities with one supplier and one bill of lading
Application Scenarios
- Urban delivery trucks running daily routes with frequent stops and moderate axle loads
- Municipal service vehicles such as refuse collectors and street sweepers in mixed surface environments
- Regional haul trucks operating between city depots and distribution centres on paved and gravel roads
- City buses and coaches with high stop-start frequency and moderate to heavy axle loads
- Fleets requiring a single bias tyre pattern that balances fuel efficiency with durability
Technical Features
- Bias construction with tread pattern designed for low rolling resistance and even wear
- Tread compound engineered for crack resistance under repeated loading and heat exposure
- Heat dissipation properties help maintain casing integrity during stop-start duty
- Tread depth of 12.0 mm on 7.00-16LT sizes and 15.0 mm on larger sizes for extended tread life

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Radial truck tyres with similar load index
LL2 offers lower rolling resistance than older radial patterns in urban duty, but radial tyres may have longer casing life on highway-only routes
Compared With Other bias tyres without heat dissipation claims
LL2’s heat dissipation properties help prevent casing failure in stop-start environments where other bias tyres may overheat
Compared With High-lug off-road bias tyres
LL2 is not designed for off-road use; it has shallower tread and less stone ejector design, making it unsuitable for muddy or rocky terrain
Use Guide
- Match ply rating to your actual axle load, not to the highest rating available - overspecifying increases cost and reduces ride comfort
- Check the standard rim listed against your wheel: 5.50F for 7.00-16LT, 7.0 for 9.00-20, 7.5 for 10.00-20, 8.5 for 12.00-20
- Inflate to the pressure shown for your load in the size table; dual and single fitment pressures differ
- Monitor tread wear and sidewall condition after 10,000 km; replace before cracks appear in the shoulder
- Inspect for trapped stones in the tread grooves after operating on gravel or unsealed roads
LL2 Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 7.00-16LT or 12.00-20 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 rather than quoting a standard figure.
Which sizes are available?
7.00-16LT in 10, 12 and 14 PR; 9.00-20 in 12, 14 and 16 PR; 10.00-20 in 16 and 18 PR; 12.00-20 in 16 and 18 PR. Full load index, rim and pressure data for each is in the size table on this page.
Is this tyre suitable for off-road use?
No. LL2 is designed for paved and mixed-surface urban and regional routes. It has shallow tread depth and no stone ejector design, making it unsuitable for muddy or rocky terrain.
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.
