8708.70.45.60 - Other

This classification, HTS 8708.70.45.60, pertains to "Other" road wheels for vehicles of headings 8701 to 8705. It encompasses road wheels that do not fall under the preceding subcategories within the "Other" classification for road wheels. Essentially, this residual category captures any road wheels not specifically designated as being made of aluminum.

The primary distinction of this category from its sibling, "Of aluminum:", lies in the material composition. While the sibling category exclusively addresses road wheels manufactured from aluminum alloys, HTS 8708.70.45.60 is intended for road wheels constructed from any other material. This includes, but is not limited to, steel, composite materials, or combinations of materials that are not predominantly aluminum.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories branching from HTS 8708.70.45.60. Therefore, the classification of a road wheel under this code hinges on its exclusion from the aluminum category. Practical classification will rely on verifying the material of construction to ensure it is not primarily aluminum, thus correctly placing it within this residual "Other" classification for road wheels.
