4011.90.10.10 - Of a kind used on golf carts, all-terrain vehicles, and for turf, lawn and garden, and trailer applications

This HTS category encompasses new pneumatic tires specifically manufactured from rubber, designed for a variety of specialized applications. It includes tires intended for use on golf carts, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), and equipment for turf, lawn, and garden maintenance. Furthermore, this classification covers tires suitable for trailer applications, where specific tread patterns and durability are paramount. The core defining characteristic is the "herring-bone" or a similar, distinctive tread pattern, which is engineered to provide optimal traction and stability in off-road or specialized operational environments.

Distinction from its sibling category, 4011.90.10.50, lies primarily in the specific tread design. While both fall under "Other" pneumatic tires and are intended for similar broad applications, this particular subcategory is reserved for tires featuring the characteristic "herring-bone" or a closely resembling tread pattern. The "Other" sibling category would capture pneumatic tires that do not exhibit this specific tread configuration but still fall within the general scope of specialized applications.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code is determined by the presence of the defined tread pattern ("herring-bone" or similar) and the intended end-use in golf carts, ATVs, turf equipment, or trailers. Importers and exporters should meticulously verify the physical characteristics of the tire's tread and confirm its intended application to ensure accurate classification under this specific provision.
