Malaysia is a country with a high demand for truck tires. The main reason for this is the country’s poor road conditions. In addition, Malaysia has a number of ports that are frequented by international shipping vessels. As a result, truck tire manufacturers have invested heavily in the country and created a variety of truck tire tread patterns to meet the needs of Malaysian drivers.
When it comes to purchasing truck tires, size and tread pattern are the two main factors that buyers need to consider. In this article, we will provide information on the road conditions and common ports in Malaysia. We will also introduce you to the top 10 truck tire patterns in Malaysia. So that you can make an informed purchase decision.
What’s the Road Condition in Malaysia
The road conditions in Malaysia vary depending on the region.
In West Malaysia, the roads are generally paved and well-maintained. However, in East Malaysia, the roads are often unpaved and can be quite difficult to navigate.
So they require a different type of tire.
What are the Main Ports in Malaysia
The main ports in West Malaysia are Port Klang, Penang Port, and Johor Port.
The main ports in East Malaysia are Kuching Port, Miri Port, Bintulu Port, and KK Port.
What Certificates for Tire Importing need in Malaysia
DOT certificate and ECE certificate are requested when you import from Malaysia.
You’d better confirm with the shipping agent before buying tires from China.
A new SIRIM certificate will be asked in the year 2022. We have them available.
