Heavy load applications require tires that are specifically designed to handle the weight and stress of large commercial trucks and other heavy duty vehicles. These typically have a higher load capacity and are built to withstand the demands of frequent highway use. For example, the Leao LLF02 is an all position model that suits heavy regional work.
Starting off, the Leao LLF02 features a wide footprint that does a great job of evenly distributing load pressure, allowing for up to 9,090 lbs per single tire. Also, it has a modern five rib tread pattern that provides excellent surface contact and highway traction. Four wide grooves channel water away from the patch area to reduce the risk of accidents in bad weather. Moreover, the special closed shoulder design combats uneven wear and boosts performance while driving in sharp curves.
In addition, the Leao LLF02 provides a lower rolling resistance due to its advanced rubber materials, thus reducing fuel usage. The stiff sidewalls combat lateral forces to further improve cornering performance while shielding the rim from damage. Also, a strong internal build with reinforced steel belts resists puncture damage to allow for numerous retread cycles. Besides, abundant siping ensures truck stability by offering plenty of extra biting edges. Above that, this model is available on the US market in a single size, which is 315/80R22.5. This size comes with different ply rating options and speed indexes of M and L to fit a wider range of applications.
