4011.10.10.10 - Having a rim diameter of 33.02 cm (13 inches) or less

This HTS category, 4011.10.10.10, specifically classifies new pneumatic tires made of rubber that are designed for use on motor cars, including station wagons and racing cars, and are of the radial construction type. The defining characteristic for this particular classification is a rim diameter of 33.02 centimeters (13 inches) or less. This designation is critical for importers and exporters to accurately declare goods for customs purposes.

The distinction between this category and its siblings lies solely in the specified rim diameter. For example, sibling category 4011.10.10.20 covers tires with a slightly larger rim diameter, ranging from greater than 33.02 cm (13 inches) up to 35.56 cm (14 inches). Each sibling category represents a distinct range of rim diameters, ensuring precise classification based on this physical dimension.

As this node represents a leaf in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification ends at this granular level, requiring precise identification of the tire's rim diameter to ensure correct tariff application. Examples of vehicles that would utilize tires falling into this category include smaller passenger cars and certain compact utility vehicles where the tire's overall size corresponds to the specified rim diameter.
