LLF01 is a radial truck tyre designed specifically for steer and trailer axles on regional delivery and distribution vehicles. The tread pattern and construction are optimised for consistent side-wear resistance and high-speed performance under mixed urban and highway conditions.
What LLF01 Is Built For
LLF01 is a radial truck tyre designed specifically for steer and trailer axles on regional delivery and distribution vehicles. The tread pattern and construction are optimised for consistent side-wear resistance and high-speed performance under mixed urban and highway conditions. It is supplied in four sizes across 16 and 18 ply ratings, with load indices from 149/146 to 154/150 and speed symbols M or (L)M. The tyre meets ETRTO operation norms and is suitable for fleets operating in Asia, the Middle East, Africa and South America where regional delivery routes include paved roads, urban traffic and occasional gravel access.
Manufacturer Feature Claims
- Special design for steer and trailer axle of trucks
- Good side-wear resistance
- High-speed performance
Key Benefits
- Specialised design for steer and trailer axles reduces uneven wear and improves alignment stability
- Good side-wear resistance extends casing life on vehicles with frequent cornering and lane changes
- High-speed performance supports consistent operation at 100 km/h and above on regional highways
- Four sizes available across 16 and 18 ply ratings to match different vehicle axle loads and rim widths
- ETRTO-compliant operation norms ensure compatibility with standard regional fleet maintenance practices
Problems It Solves
- Steer and trailer axles wear unevenly on urban routes due to frequent cornering and braking; this pattern reduces side-wear
- Standard tyres degrade quickly on high-speed regional routes due to inadequate high-speed performance
- Multiple tyre patterns are needed for steer and trailer axles, increasing stock and fitting complexity
- Lack of ETRTO compliance causes issues with fleet maintenance and documentation in regulated markets
- Inconsistent casing life across steer and trailer axles leads to premature replacements and higher total cost of ownership
Who It Is For
- Tyre distributors supplying regional delivery and distribution fleets in Asia, the Middle East and Africa
- Fleet operators managing regional trucks with high steer and trailer axle wear due to urban driving
- Wholesale distributors needing one tyre pattern that covers multiple steer and trailer axle fitments
- Importers sourcing tyres for mixed urban and highway regional fleets across multiple markets
- Government and municipal transport departments buying tyres by container for regional service vehicles
Application Scenarios
- Regional delivery vans and box trucks operating daily between city distribution hubs and suburban delivery points
- Truck fleets running mixed urban routes with frequent stops, sharp turns and high-speed highway stretches
- Trailer axles on regional haulage trailers carrying goods between regional depots and retail distribution centres
- Fleets in Africa and South America using regional trucks on paved roads with occasional gravel access points
- Urban and suburban delivery fleets requiring consistent tyre life across steer and trailer axles without frequent replacements
Technical Features
- Radial truck tyre construction with special design for steer and trailer axle applications
- Tread pattern engineered for side-wear resistance under frequent urban and regional driving conditions
- High-speed performance capability rated for continuous operation at speeds up to 100 km/h
- ETRTO operation norm compliance ensures consistent performance across regional fleet operations
- Tread depth of 14.5 mm across all listed sizes provides a balance between wear life and road grip

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not
Compared With General-purpose truck tyres not designed for steer and trailer axles
LLF01 reduces side-wear and improves alignment stability on regional routes where frequent cornering occurs
Compared With High-speed long-haul drive tyres
LLF01 prioritises side-wear resistance and steer axle stability over high-speed endurance, making it less suitable for pure highway use
Compared With Dedicated trailer axle tyres with lower load index
LLF01 offers higher load capacity and consistent performance across both steer and trailer axle applications
Use Guide
- Match ply rating to your actual axle load, not to the highest rating available - overspecifying increases cost and ride harshness
- Check the standard rim listed against your wheel: 8.25 for 275/80R22.5, 9.00 for 295/60R22.5, 9.75 for 315/60R22.5
- Inflate to the pressure shown for your load in the size table; dual and single fitment pressures differ
- Rotate steer and trailer axle positions before irregular wear sets in, especially on fleets with one-way loading patterns
- Inspect tread and sidewall for side-wear after every 10,000 km to assess casing life and plan replacements
LLF01 Buying Questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
We load by full container. A 40HQ of 275/80R22.5 or 315/60R22.5 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?
275/80R22.5 in 16PR, 315/60R22.5 in 16PR and 18PR, and 295/60R22.5 in 16PR. Full load index, rim and pressure data for each is in the size table on this page.
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 high-speed regional routes?
Yes. It is rated for high-speed performance with speed symbols M and (L)M, suitable for continuous operation at 100 km/h and above.
