Clarify target market, required fitment and acceptable substitutions. An order quantity alone is insufficient for a fitment review.
Send a tire size list, a wheel fitment brief or an OE reference. Dunlop independently coordinates sourcing requests and supplier comparison.
For 225/45R18 95W, preserve the entire sidewall designation and give the required load index, speed rating, duty and tread. Split the requested quantities by SKU and keep acceptable alternates separate.
For wheels, include rim diameter and width, pitch circle diameter (PCD), wheel offset (ET), center bore, load rating and finish. For hubs and bearings, give an OE cross reference, the hub flange, bearing dimensions and ABS encoder ring details.
Clarify target market, required fitment and acceptable substitutions. An order quantity alone is insufficient for a fitment review.
Compare stock and custom offers by identical service description, packaging and Incoterm. Stock can simplify repeat orders where SKU and lot match. Custom can fix a required tread or casing specification, subject to sample approval and supplier terms.
Ask the supplier for a drawing or dimensional report and identify the tire model, size, site and market on any report. For a wheel sample, give the inspector the approved drawing revision and ask for measured center bore, radial runout and lateral runout against its tolerances. For a tire sample, match sidewall marks and tread to the approved line list. Before release, record the sample ID, test conditions where relevant and who approves exceptions.
