Tires for trucks and buses intended for regional use are usually better for short distances and frequent stops and starts. They are made to offer superior handling, traction, and durability on highways, city streets, and other local roads. For instance, the Leao LLF56+ is an all position model that is recommended for the steer axle. Moreover, it suits regional pickup and delivery applications of light and medium duty.
Specifically, the Leao LLF56+ has a modern five rib tread pattern that allows for maximum performance and stability. Four wide linear grooves channel water away from the patch area, minimizing the risk of aquaplaning on rainy days. Moreover, special stone ejectors at the bottom of the grooves combat rock drilling to extend the rubber life as much as possible. The closed shoulder design promotes even wear and provides confident cornering ability. The service life of Leao LLF56+ further increases due to the protection that the sidewalls provide to the rim and the interior. In addition, the durable rubber compound in combination with the optimal tread depth works towards lowering the rolling resistance.
Besides, the internal structure supports load pressure and allows for many retread cycles. An optimized spread of sipes adds extra biting edges to boost stability and road grip. Above all, the Leao LLF56+ comes on the US market in limited sizes, which are 9R22.5 and 10R22.5. To allows for a wider range of uses, these sizes offer a ply rating of 14 and a speed index of M.
