Highway all-season commercial tire

The Royal Black AM201 255/70R22.5 is a highway all-season tire built for commercial trailers and medium or heavy trucks. It carries a 16-ply load range H construction with dual load indexes of 140/137. The black sidewall finish suits fleet and owner-operator use.

Load range H limits and seasonal grip

Load range H supports the heavy axle weights typical of commercial trailer service. The all-season compound and M+S marking provide year-round traction on wet and dry highways, but the tire is not designed for dedicated winter or off-road conditions.

Straightforward trailer fitment

The 22.5-inch rim diameter matches standard commercial wheels, and the 255/70R22.5 sizing fits common trailer positions. Installers must verify the rim width matches manufacturer specifications and torque lug nuts to the vehicle maker’s values to avoid uneven wear or separation.
