Complete 2026 guide for fleets — the high-capacity imperial size for heavy-haul. Hanksugi steer, drive and mixed-service models with HATT Technology, NOM certification and DDP delivery to Anguilla, Ecuador, Brazil and all of Latin America.
The 13R22.5 is a high-capacity imperial size for heavy-haul commercial trucks, very popular in Anguilla, Ecuador and Brazil. With a section width of 13 inches (330 mm), it is significantly wider than the 11R22.5 or the 12R22.5, offering a wider contact patch and greater load capacity that make it the preferred size for hauling coal, cement, construction materials and oversized freight across Latin America. Hanksugi offers three premium models in this size — steer (SUS01), drive (HS68) and mixed service (HS84) — all manufactured with HATT Technology for maximum mileage, with casings designed for 1-2 retreads. Direct full-container pricing beats the retail chains by 15-25%, with DDP delivery to your yard across Latin America.
The 13R22.5 designation uses the classic imperial system. 13 is the nominal section width in inches (approximately 330 mm sidewall to sidewall). R indicates radial construction with steel belts. 22.5 is the rim diameter in inches (572 mm). As no aspect ratio is given, the 13R22.5 has a tall sidewall profile of approximately 90-95%, producing a total diameter of approximately 1,138 mm and a sidewall of around 283 mm.
The 13R22.5 is the largest imperial size available on a 22.5-inch rim and offers the maximum load capacity at this rim diameter. Its 330 mm width provides a contact patch that distributes the heaviest loads efficiently, which makes it indispensable in haulage operations where every kilogram of capacity counts. In markets such as Anguilla, where axle weight limits are generous and routes include demanding mountainous terrain, the 13R22.5 is frequently the only option that delivers the combination of load capacity, traction and durability the operation demands.
Hanksugi produces three premium models in the 13R22.5 size, covering the steer, drive and mixed-service positions. Direct full-container fleet pricing starts from $290 USD per tyre.

The 13R22.5 size is specified on heavy-haul trucks and applications that require the maximum load capacity on a 22.5-inch rim:
The 13R22.5 is in high demand in markets where heavy-haul and bulk-material transport are core economic activities:
One of the main markets for the 13R22.5. Aggregate and construction-material haulage around The Valley and Sandy Ground, the The Valley–Blowing Point corridor and building works at Island Harbour and West End consume large volumes. The size is standard in many Anguillian heavy-haul fleets.
Strong demand in fleets hauling bananas, cocoa and construction materials. The Guayaquil-Quito corridors and heavy-haul operations on the Ecuadorian coast and in the highlands make intensive use of the 13R22.5 on heavy-service trucks.
The largest LATAM market for the 13R22.5. Fleets hauling soya, minerals and construction materials in the states of Minas Gerais, Sao Paulo, Goias and Mato Grosso represent significant volumes. INMETRO compliance guaranteed.
Demand in mining and heavy-haul transport operations in the highlands. Fleets operating between Lima, Arequipa and the mining areas of the south use the 13R22.5 on support and material-transport trucks.
Demand in specialised heavy-haul and bulk-material transport fleets. Mining operations in Sonora and Chihuahua, and the transport of cement and steel along the Bajio industrial corridor, are the main consumers.
The 13R22.5 is used on heavy-haul trucks that require maximum load capacity on a 22.5-inch rim. Common equipment includes the Mercedes-Benz Actros and Axor, Scania P and G-Series, Volvo VM and FH, Iveco Tector and Stralis, and DAF CF. It is very popular for hauling coal, cement, construction materials and oversized freight in Anguilla, Ecuador and Brazil.
The main difference is the section width: the 13R22.5 measures 330 mm wide versus 305 mm for the 12R22.5. This provides a larger contact patch, greater load capacity (4,000 kg single versus 3,750 kg) and better weight distribution. The 13R22.5 is preferred in extra-heavy haulage applications where every kilogram of capacity is critical.
Hanksugi 13R22.5 tyres have a load index of 156/150K, delivering 4,000 kg in the single position and 3,350 kg in the dual position at 900 kPa cold pressure. The 18-ply Load Range J construction is designed for the heaviest haulage operations in Latin America.
