Estimates, not guaranteed capacities. These container quantities are estimates for planning, not measured capacities, guaranteed volumes or a statement of stock. The final quantity is confirmed in the quotation and the loading plan.
Per-size estimate: the figures above are scaled by tyre volume, using each tyre's nominal outside diameter and section width (the ETRTO calculation) against a 195/65 R15 reference. It is an indicative planning figure, not a measured capacity.
Used tyre grading
Our proposed commercial grading system — not an official international standard. Grades are based on the remaining tread depth and are assigned only after each tyre has been inspected — never automatically.
| Grade | Remaining tread depth | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| A+ | 7 mm or more | Highest tread band in our proposed system. |
| A | 6.0 – 6.9 mm | — |
| B | 5.0 – 5.9 mm | — |
| C | 4.0 – 4.9 mm | Lowest band we would offer. Tyres below 4.0 mm are not offered. |
A grade describes remaining tread depth only. It is not a certificate of roadworthiness: no used tyre is advertised as roadworthy unless it has been individually inspected, and buyers should have tyres checked under the rules of the destination country before fitting.
Tyres we exclude
Whatever the tread depth, a tyre is not offered if it has any of the following:
- Remaining tread depth below 4.0 mm at any measured point
- Cuts, cracks or damage that expose the cords, belts or plies
- Bulges, blisters or signs of internal separation
- Sidewall or shoulder punctures, and any repair outside the permitted repair area
- Damaged, kinked or deformed beads
- Ageing or ozone cracking, fire, heat or chemical damage
- Run-flat tyres that have been driven deflated or repaired
- Tyres with an illegible, removed or altered DOT / date code
- Regrooved or retreaded tyres, unless specifically requested and declared as such
Import rules: Some countries prohibit or restrict imports of used tyres, or set minimum tread-depth, age or inspection requirements. Please check with the customs authority of the destination country before ordering.

How to read a tyre size, load index and speed rating
255width/35aspectRradial19rim96load index(Y)speed
- 255 — section width
- Width of the tyre in millimetres, sidewall to sidewall.
- 35 — aspect ratio
- Sidewall height as a percentage of the width (35% of 255 mm ≈ 89 mm).
- R — construction
- Radial construction. “ZR” marks tyres rated above 240 km/h; “RF” in place of “R” (for example 205/55 RF16) marks a run-flat tyre.
- 19 — rim diameter
- Wheel rim diameter in inches.
- 96 — load index
- Maximum load per tyre at the specified pressure: 96 = 710 kg per tyre. “XL” (extra load) or “RF” (reinforced) after the size marks a higher-load version.
- (Y) — speed rating
- Maximum speed at the rated load: (Y) = above 300 km/h. A service description in brackets, such as (98Y), means the tyre is rated above 300 km/h.
| Symbol | L | M | N | P | Q | R | S | T | H | V | W | Y |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| km/h | 120 | 130 | 140 | 150 | 160 | 170 | 180 | 190 | 210 | 240 | 270 | 300 |
Other markings: 3PMSF (three-peak mountain snowflake) — the tyre meets the EU/UN severe-snow performance test; M+S — mud and snow tread design (no test required); DOT — manufacturing code whose last four digits give the production week and year (for example 2325 = week 23 of 2025); EU tyre label — fuel-efficiency class (A–E), wet-grip class (A–E) and external rolling noise (dB and class A–C) under Regulation (EU) 2020/740.
