11R22.5-16PR 148/145M HO301 Onyx

The 11R22.5-16PR 148/145M HO301 Onyx is a heavy-duty radial tyre designed for large commercial vehicles such as trucks, buses, and other high-load applications. It offers durability, strength, and performance, ideal for both on-road and off-road environments. Here’s a detailed description of its features:

1. Size:
   • 11R22.5 refers to the tyre’s width and rim diameter:
     • 11 is the width of the tyre in inches (11 inches).
     • R22.5 indicates the tyre is designed to fit 22.5-inch wheels and has radial construction, which is common for commercial vehicle tyres.
2. 16PR (16 Ply Rating):
   • The 16PR means that the tyre has 16 plies of construction. A higher ply rating increases the tyre’s strength, load-carrying capacity, and durability, making it well-suited for heavy-duty commercial vehicles that require enhanced toughness, especially under demanding conditions.
3. Load Index (148/145):
   • The 148/145 load index indicates the maximum load capacity for the tyre in both single and dual configurations:
     • 148 means that the tyre can carry up to 3,000 kg when used as a single tyre.
     • 145 means that the tyre can carry up to 2,900 kg when used as a dual tyre.
   • This high load index ensures the tyre is capable of supporting the substantial loads typically carried by large commercial vehicles.
4. Speed Rating (M):
   • The M speed rating indicates that the tyre is rated for a maximum speed of 130 km/h (81 mph). While this tyre is not designed for high-speed performance, it is ideal for long-haul transportation and heavy-duty work where load-bearing capacity and durability are the primary focus.
5. Model (HO301 Onyx):
   • The HO301 Onyx is designed for long-lasting performance in demanding commercial environments. It is optimized for vehicles that operate on highways, construction sites, and other rough or unpaved surfaces. The tyre offers excellent stability, handling, and durability, even under heavy loads.
6. Tread Design:
   • The tread pattern of the HO301 Onyx is engineered to provide exceptional traction, stability, and wear resistance on various surfaces, including highways and off-road conditions. The tread design ensures reliable performance in both dry and wet conditions, improving grip and reducing the risk of hydroplaning.
7. Construction:
   • The radial construction of the tyre ensures better durability and performance, particularly under heavy loads and rough conditions. It provides improved ride comfort and enhanced fuel efficiency, making it suitable for long-haul commercial vehicles.

The 11R22.5-16PR 148/145M HO301 Onyx is an excellent choice for large commercial vehicles, such as trucks and buses, that need a durable, high-performance tyre for demanding on-road and off-road conditions. Its high ply rating, load capacity, and reliable tread design make it ideal for vehicles that operate in tough environments while carrying heavy loads over long distances.
