The correct tyre specification should always follow the vehicle manufacturer’s approved size, load index and speed rating. Choosing a tyre based only on its dimensions may result in an unsuitable load capacity.

Giti uses High Load-Bearing Technology, Anti-Roll Footprint Structure and low-deformation structural design to manage load, maintain an effective contact area and support stable handling.
