Overview
This HTS category, 8708.70.25.00, specifically covers road wheels designed for use with tractors that are not road tractors. This includes, but is not limited to, agricultural tractors, industrial tractors, and construction tractors. The wheels classified here are intended to be fitted to vehicles falling under the definition of "other tractors" within the scope of heading 8708.70.
This classification distinguishes itself from its sibling category, 8708.70.35.00, which is designated for "Parts and accessories." While this category focuses on complete road wheels themselves, the sibling category encompasses components or accessories related to road wheels, such as tire valves, wheel nuts, or decorative wheel covers. The key differentiator is the inclusion of a complete, functional road wheel assembly versus individual components.
As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of a product within 8708.70.25.00 hinges on its physical characteristics and intended use as a road wheel for a non-road tractor. This means goods must be complete wheels, suitable for road use (implying certain durability and design standards), and specifically intended for attachment to tractors that are not primarily designed for highway operation.
