LLA28 is a radial trailer-axle truck tyre designed for regional haulage fleets that operate on mixed road conditions—paved highways, gravel feeder roads, and occasional unsealed surfaces. The tyre is built for consistent performance across varied terrain without compromising on load capacity or tread life.
What LLA28 Is Built For
LLA28 is a radial trailer-axle truck tyre designed for regional haulage fleets that operate on mixed road conditions—paved highways, gravel feeder roads, and occasional unsealed surfaces. The tyre is built for consistent performance across varied terrain without compromising on load capacity or tread life. It is available in two ply ratings, 18 and 20, with load indices of 162 and 165, and speed symbols K and J/K, covering standard trailer axle applications in regional transport. The 425/65R22.5 size is the only one listed, with a 17.5 mm tread depth and a 12.25 standard rim width, suitable for dual and single fitment across multiple load levels.
Manufacturer Feature Claims
- Suitable for the Trailer Axle of the Trucks Running on the Multi Road
Key Benefits
- 17.5 mm tread depth supports extended casing life on mixed-surface regional routes
- Dual load capacity up to 5150 kg at 825 kPa on the 20PR version for heavy regional trailers
- Standard rim width 12.25 matches common regional trailer wheel configurations
- Speed symbol J/K allows higher speed operation on highway sections of the route
- Single load capacity up to 4750 kg at 760 kPa on the 18PR version for lighter regional loads
Problems It Solves
- Trailer tyres failing early on unsealed roads due to inadequate tread depth and sidewall resilience
- Inconsistent load capacity across trailer axle sizes leading to overloading or underutilization
- Lack of standard rim compatibility causing fitment issues during replacement
- Speed symbol mismatch on trailer tyres limiting highway efficiency in regional routes
- Need for multiple tyre models to cover different load levels and road conditions
Who It Is For
- Regional haulage operators buying trailer axle tyres for mixed-surface fleets
- Fleet managers replacing trailer tyres that fail prematurely on gravel or unsealed roads
- Distributors supplying trailer tyres to regional transport companies in emerging markets
- Importers sourcing trailer axle tyres for regional trucks with mixed road duty
- Logistics providers managing container loads of trailer tyres across multiple sizes and patterns
Application Scenarios
- Regional haulage trucks running from urban distribution centres to rural depots on paved and gravel roads
- Trailer axles on regional delivery fleets that carry heavy loads over long distances with mixed surface exposure
- Fleets operating in Southeast Asia, Africa, and South America where road conditions vary between tarmac and unsealed surfaces
- Trailer axles on regional buses and coaches that travel between cities and towns with inconsistent road quality
- Fleets needing consistent trailer axle performance without frequent casing replacements due to uneven wear
Technical Features
- Radial construction with 17.5 mm tread depth across both listed ply ratings
- Designed specifically for trailer axle use on multi-road regional haulage routes
- Standard rim width 12.25 matches common regional trailer wheel standards
- Dual and single load capacity specified per size and ply rating in the size table
- Speed symbols K and J/K allow operation at higher speeds on paved sections

Customisation Options
- Mixed container loading across sizes, patterns, and brands to match your order book
- Certificate of origin issued to suit your import duty position
- Sidewall branding and private label subject to plant minimum order quantity
- Label, marking, and packaging adjusted to the destination market requirement
Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With Trailer tyres designed for long-haul highway use
LLA28 has a deeper tread and is built for mixed surfaces, but may wear faster on pure highway duty compared to a highway-specific pattern
Compared With Trailer tyres for off-road or mining applications
LLA28 is not designed for deep mud or rock impacts; it lacks the reinforced casing and aggressive tread of dedicated off-road patterns
Compared With Trailer tyres with lower load index or speed symbol
LLA28 offers higher load capacity and speed rating, suitable for heavier regional loads and faster regional routes
Use Guide
- Match ply rating to your actual trailer axle load—not to the highest available—overspecifying increases cost and reduces ride comfort
- Verify rim width is 12.25 before fitting; mismatched rims can cause instability and premature wear
- Inflate to the pressure shown in the size table for your load: dual and single fitment pressures differ
- Monitor tread wear regularly, especially on gravel sections, to ensure casing life is maximized
- Inspect for stone retention in the tread grooves after unsealed road exposure to prevent casing damage
LLA28 Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. The 425/65R22.5 size typically fills a 40HQ container by weight, 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?
Only 425/65R22.5 is listed, in 18PR (load index 162, speed symbol K) and 20PR (load index 165, speed symbol J/K). All load and pressure data is in the size table.
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 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.
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 off-road use?
It is designed for regional use on mixed roads—paved, gravel, and unsealed—but not for deep mud, rock, or mining conditions. It lacks the reinforced casing and aggressive tread of dedicated off-road patterns.
