The standard tyre size for medium delivery and distribution trucks in Antigua and Barbuda. Hanksugi HS28+ with HATT Technology for all-position use — port haulage, urban delivery, and island logistics from Saint John's to English Harbour.
The 215/75R17.5 is the standard tyre size for medium delivery and distribution trucks. Hino 300 series, Isuzu NPR and NQR, Mitsubishi Canter, Mercedes-Benz Atego, Volkswagen Delivery and Hyundai HD65/HD78 — the trucks that move last-mile logistics across Saint John's and the surrounding parishes — come fitted from the factory with 215/75R17.5 tyres. With the growth of port haulage, construction activity, and resort supply chains in Antigua and Barbuda, the demand for high-quality, low cost-per-kilometre 215/75R17.5 tyres has never been greater. Hanksugi offers the HS28+ in this size with HATT Technology: a versatile all-position model with DOT certification and a casing engineered for 2 retreads.
In the designation 215/75R17.5, the number 215 indicates the section width in millimetres — a relatively narrow tyre designed for medium trucks of 3.5 to 7.5 tonnes GVW. The 75 is the aspect ratio: the sidewall equals 75% of the width, approximately 161 mm. The R confirms radial construction and 17.5 is the rim diameter in inches. The 17.5-inch rim is standard for medium trucks, lighter than the 22.5-inch rims used on prime movers, which contributes to the operational efficiency of urban delivery vehicles.
Hanksugi offers the HS28+ in size 215/75R17.5 with HATT Technology, covering all-position use for delivery and distribution fleets in Antigua and Barbuda.
