Materials

Materials and Construction

  • Tread compound formulated for low rolling resistance and fuel efficiency
  • Sidewall and casing construction designed for lower weight and load capacity
  • Steel belt package and carcass structure as supplied by the manufacturing plant
  • Load range variants use reinforced casing and higher ply rating for increased capacity
How ordering works

From Size List to Loaded Container

1

Confirm size, ply rating, load index, and rim width against your vehicle or trailer axle

2

We quote FOB or CIF based on your load port and confirm current plant availability

3

Production or stock allocation is confirmed with the plant before deposit is required

4

Container is loaded with mixed sizes and patterns, insured, and shipped with full export documentation

Quality control

Quality and After Sales

  • Every tyre supplied carries a one year warranty against manufacturing defect
  • Warranty claims are handled directly by us, not passed back to the plant
  • Cargo transportation insurance is arranged on every shipment
  • DOT, ECE, and other marking requirements are confirmed against your import market before loading
Customisation

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
Honest comparison

Where This Pattern Wins and Where It Does Not

Compared With Standard trailer tyres without low weight construction

R701 reduces rolling resistance and fuel use, leading to lower long-term operating cost

Compared With Higher weight trailer tyres with same load index

R701 offers lower weight and better fuel economy but may have lower durability under extreme loads

Compared With Single-size container from one plant

R701 allows mixed container loading across sizes and brands, reducing sourcing complexity and paperwork

Fitting and use

Use Guide

  • Match ply rating and load index to your actual axle load and vehicle type
  • Check standard rim width against your wheel; 4 1/2J is used for 155/70R12C and 165R13C
  • Inflate to the pressure shown in the size table for your load; dual and single fitment pressures differ
  • Inspect tread and sidewall regularly for wear and damage, especially on load range variants
  • Rotate trailer tyres before irregular wear sets in, particularly on vehicles with uneven load distribution
Questions

R701 Buying Questions

What is the minimum order quantity?

We load by full container. A 40HQ of R701 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?

31 sizes listed: 135/80R13 XL, 145/70R13, 145/80R13 XL, 155/70R12, 155/70R13, 155/80R13 XL, 165/55R14, 165/65R13, 165/70R13, 175/65R14, 175/70R13, 175/70R13 XL, 185/60R14, 185/70R13, 195/55R15, 195/60R15, 195/70R14 XL, 155/70R12C, 165R13C, 165R14LT, 185R14C, 185/60R12C, 185/70R13C, 195R14C, 195/50R13C, 195/55R10C, 195/60R12C. Full load index, rim, and pressure data is in the size table.

Is this tyre legal for use in my country?

Marking requirements vary by destination. Tell us your 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 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.

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.
