Overview

What LLD09-Light Truck Is Built For

LLD09-Light Truck is a radial drive-axle tyre designed for medium trucks operating on normal roads with occasional off-road exposure. The tread pattern is a typical combined design, balancing traction, wear and rolling resistance for mixed-duty service. It is supplied in 14 size and ply combinations, covering 7.00R16LT, 7.50R16LT, 8.25R16LT, 215/75R17.5 and 235/75R17.5 fitments, with load indices from 115/110 to 143/141 and ply ratings from 12 to 18. The tyre supports dual and single fitments across a range of axle loads and inflation pressures, with tread depths between 200 mm and 235 mm and overall diameters from 560 mm to 875 mm.

The problem

Problems It Solves

  • Fleets running on mixed surfaces face early casing failure when using pure highway tyres due to lack of off-road resistance
  • Using separate on-road and off-road patterns increases stock complexity and fitting labour for mixed-duty fleets
  • Inconsistent tread depth and load capacity across sizes lead to incorrect fitment and premature wear
  • Lack of clear dual and single load data causes overinflation or underinflation, reducing tyre life and safety
  • Multiple suppliers and MOQs increase paperwork and complicate container loading for mixed-size orders
Buyers

Honest comparison

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not

Compared With Pure highway drive tyres

LLD09-Light Truck has a more robust tread and sidewall for light off-road use, but may have slightly higher rolling resistance and lower highway mileage

Compared With Dedicated off-road drive tyres

A deep-lug off-road pattern grips better in mud but wears faster and runs noisier on paved roads; LLD09 is better suited for mixed-duty service

Compared With Multiple patterns for different duties

Using one pattern across mixed routes reduces stock, simplifies fitting and avoids seasonal changeovers

Fitting and use

Use Guide

  • Match ply rating to your actual axle load, not to the heaviest tyre available - overspecifying costs money and rides hard
  • Check the standard rim listed against your wheel: K for 215/75R17.5 and 235/75R17.5, L for 7.00R16LT and 8.25R16LT, M for 7.50R16LT
  • Inflate to the pressure shown for your load in the size table; dual and single fitment pressures differ
  • Rotate drive positions before irregular wear sets in, particularly on fleets running heavy one-way loads
  • Inspect tread blocks and groove bottoms for lodged stone after off-road cycles to protect the casing for retreading
Questions

LLD09-Light Truck Buying Questions

What is the minimum order quantity?

We load by full container. A 40HQ of 7.00R16LT or 235/75R17.5 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?

7.00R16LT in 12PR and 14PR, 7.50R16LT in 12PR and 14PR, 8.25R16LT in 12PR, 14PR and 16PR, 215/75R17.5 in 12PR, 14PR, 16PR and 16PR with 135/133, and 235/75R17.5 in 14PR, 16PR and 18PR. Full load index, rim and pressure data for each is in the size table on this page.

Is this tyre legal for winter use?

The tyre carries no winter-specific markings. Confirm your own market’s winter regulation before ordering. We can supply ECE or DOT marked tyres if required, based on destination.

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.
