What Groundspeed is
Exclusive UK distributor
GB Tyres is the exclusive UK distributor for Groundspeed, with stock, product enquiries and warranty support available through our team.
Groundspeed is a budget truck, bus and trailer brand that GB Tyres source from Thailand. Thailand is the world’s largest producer of natural rubber and has built a large export-focused tyre industry on the back of it. It is also where GB Tyres’ own Aerotyre range is made, so the supply route into the West Midlands is a familiar one.
Our team can confirm the size, load index, speed symbol and approval markings for the exact Groundspeed fitment you need.
Choosing the right fitment
Groundspeed offers a value option in the commercial tyre range. Compare each pattern’s specification and tyre label against the vehicle’s axle position and duty cycle.
The range includes regional, mixed-service and trailer patterns. Consider working conditions, expected mileage, replacement history and availability when choosing a fitment.
The casing question
For fleets that retread, check casing eligibility before ordering and include potential casing value in the cost comparison. A second life depends on the casing specification and its condition at inspection.
Assess first-life cost and potential casing value together. GB Tyres operates a casing credit scheme for retreadable casings; our guide explains the options. retread or replace guide.
