Which positions this size comes in

Not every size is made for every axle. These are the positions 10R22.5 is actually sold in.

All-positionFits anywhere

A rib tread that is approved for any axle. Common on dump trucks, mixers, buses and anything that does not run enough miles to justify three separate tire programs. It is a compromise: less traction than a drive tire, shorter life than a dedicated trailer tire.

DrivePowered axles

The tires that put the engine's torque on the road, usually eight of them in dual pairs on two axles. Deep, blocky lug tread for traction, which is why they are noisier and wear faster than a steer tire. This is the position where a good retread saves real money.

SteerFront axle

The two tires that carry the front axle and do the steering. They wear evenly in ribs rather than blocks, run the highest load per tire on the rig, and are the one position where federal rules ask for more tread: 4/32 inch, against 2/32 for everything else. A steer tire is also the position nobody retreads on a tractor pulling on public roads.

Load index and speed rating

The rib tread and sidewall markings on a commercial truck tire
Load index, speed rating and load range are all moulded into the sidewall, next to the size.

The most common markings on 10R22.5 are 141/139L, 141/139M and 144/142L. The pair of numbers is the load index single and dual: the first is what one tire carries on its own, the second what it carries as one of a dual pair, which is always the lower figure. The letter is the speed rating, and on commercial tires it is low by car standards on purpose.

Who makes it

The brands with the most 10R22.5 listings right now: Goodyear, Firestone, Advance, Double Coin, Hankook, Hercules, Continental and Samson. On a commercial tire the casing is worth more than the tread, so a premium brand is not only paying for the first life; it is paying for two or three retreads afterwards.

The size people cross-shop against it

11R22.5 – Standard profile, the classic heavy truck size, median $526 against $514 here.

Wheel diameter has to match. A low-profile and a standard-profile tire on the same rim are interchangeable on the wheel but not in rolling circumference, so never mix them across a drive axle.
