Van Tyre (C Tyre)
A van tyre, marked with a C after the size, is built for commercial vehicles with higher load capacity and pressure.
What is Van Tyre (C Tyre)?
It has a stronger construction than a passenger car tyre. Two load indices are often shown, for single and twin wheels. It is used on vans, campers and some pickups. Campervans often need tyres designed for long standing periods and high loads.
How it works
Extra plies and reinforcement let the tyre carry heavy loads at higher pressures.
Why it matters for your car
Do not replace van tyres with passenger car tyres. Follow the van’s pressure table for the actual load.
