Choosing the right tyre for your vehicle is crucial – but first, it’s important to understand that the tyre industry generally offers three types: PCR, TBR, and OTR.
PCR stands for Passenger Car Radial and is designed specifically for cars, sedans, and small vans. Often referred to simply as car tyres, they’re not suitable for any other type of vehicle.
TBR, or Truck and Bus Radial, is mainly used on trucks and buses. These are commonly called commercial tyres due to their widespread use in freight and transport.
The third type is OTR, or Off-the-Road tyres, typically used on dump trucks, loaders, and other large vehicles in mining, construction, agriculture, or industrial sectors.
Features & Best Use of Each Tyre Type:
1. PCR Tyres
Features:
- Built for efficiency and mileage
- Comfortable for both city and highway driving
- Not designed to carry heavy loads
Best Suited For:
- Family cars and everyday vehicles
- Regular commuting
- Long-distance road travel
2. TBR Tyres
Features:
- Designed for heavy-duty commercial vehicles
- Offers excellent durability and longer lifespan
- Suitable for drive, steer, trailer, and multipurpose positions

3. OTR Tyres

So, which tyre is right for you?
- Driving a passenger car? Choose PCR tyres.
