01 — The Company

Check us first. Then talk tires.

✓
One legal name, everywhereThe name on the proforma invoice, the bank account and the registration certificate is the same: THE ROAD TIRE Co., Ltd. No personal accounts for company orders.
✓
Domestic track record in KoreaWe operate as a working wholesaler in the Korean market — Michelin specialist wholesale, Kumho Tire, Hankook Tire and Bridgestone supply sourced in Korea, and direct-import distribution of RoadX, Warrior and Kunlun Tire — not a paper-only export front.
✓
Origin & documents stated up frontFor Kumho and Hankook, origin is Korea. For Bridgestone and Michelin, the manufacturing country varies by size and plant — we confirm brand, pattern, DOT and origin in writing on the PI before payment (see Origin & Documents below).
✓
Specification-first quotingWe quote only after size, pattern, load index, quantity and destination are confirmed — so the PI you sign is the product you receive.
✓
DOT & condition disclosedProduction year (DOT) and stock condition are stated before payment. No silent substitution of older stock.

Honest note on scale: we are a focused, owner-managed wholesaler — not a manufacturer and not a conglomerate. What we offer instead of size is direct access to the decision-maker, verifiable registration, and document discipline on every order.

02 — Products

Two lines. Both trade-only.

Brand names and logos belong to their respective owners. Listing a brand describes our supply and distribution activity; it does not by itself claim exclusive or authorised distributorship for your market. Destination eligibility for premium brands (especially Michelin and Bridgestone) must be confirmed before ordering — we will tell you plainly if a brand cannot be supplied to your country.

04 — Origin & Documents

Origin & documents, stated plainly.

Our Korean and premium lines are sourced in Korea — Kumho and Hankook as Korean-made products, Bridgestone and Michelin as premium brands. Our value lines — RoadX, Warrior and Kunlun Tire — are made in China (RoadX also in Vietnam) and imported by us into Korea. Origin, manufacturer and documents are stated on the PI, not left vague.

🇰🇷 Made in Korea — Kumho Tire & Hankook Tire

Kumho Tire and Hankook Tire are Korean manufacturers. For Kumho and Hankook lines, country of origin is Korea — the plant and production year (DOT) are shown per lot, so you can check origin against the sidewall and the shipping documents.

Kumho origin	Republic of Korea Plants: Gwangju · Gokseong · Pyeongtaek — plant confirmed per size & lot
Hankook origin	Republic of Korea Plants: Daejeon · Geumsan — plant confirmed per size & lot
Documents	Certificate of Origin available where applicable, with commercial invoice, packing list and B/L

🌐 Premium brands — Bridgestone & Michelin

Bridgestone and Michelin are global premium brands. Country of manufacture varies by size and plant, so we confirm origin in writing before you pay — we never label a premium size “Made in Korea” unless the sidewall says so.

Confirmed per PI	Brand, pattern, size, load index, DOT / production year and country of origin
What you receive	Commercial invoice, packing list and bill of lading as standard; Certificate of Origin and specification documents where applicable to the line ordered

🇨🇳 Made in China — RoadX · Warrior · Kunlun Tire

Our Chinese value lines are bought from the manufacturers’ own groups and imported by us into Korea — not sourced from anonymous traders. Manufacturer and plant are named on the PI, so origin can be checked against the sidewall.

RoadX	Sailun Group — plants in China & Vietnam; plant confirmed per size & lot

06 — FAQ

Questions buyers ask before the first order.

How can I verify your company before paying?

Check Business Registration No. 470-87-03662 against our PI and bank account name — all must read THE ROAD TIRE Co., Ltd. (주식회사 더로드타이어). We can share a copy of the business registration certificate and our e-commerce permit (2026-Gimhae-1390) on request.

Are you a manufacturer?

No — and we do not pretend to be. We are a Korean wholesale distributor. Our value is sourcing Kumho Tire, Hankook Tire, Bridgestone and Michelin in Korea, and importing RoadX, Warrior and Kunlun Tire directly from their manufacturer groups in China — with specifications, DOT and origin confirmed in writing — and document discipline on every order.

Can you export these brands to my country?

It depends on the destination and the brand's territorial rules. Tell us your market first — we will confirm eligibility before quoting, rather than quoting first and failing later.

Where can I see the full product range for each brand?

Select a brand above — in the brand cards, the pattern filter, or the RFQ form — and follow its catalogue link to the manufacturer's official catalogue or website: Kumho Tire and Hankook Tire (Korean manufacturers), Bridgestone Korea's Truck & Bus (TBR) catalogue, Michelin's official freight-transport / truck (TBR) catalogue, RoadX's official TBR catalogue (Sailun Group), Warrior's official data book (Double Coin Group) and Kunlun Tire's official website. The catalogue shows the manufacturer's full range; export availability for a specific size is confirmed in our quotation.

What are your payment and shipping terms?

Terms are set per proforma invoice. Payment is by T/T against PI; export terms (FOB Busan or CIF) and lead time are confirmed in writing before any payment. Never pay to a personal account or a name that differs from the PI.

What documents do I receive?

Commercial invoice, packing list and bill of lading as standard; certificate of origin and product specification / test documents where applicable to the line ordered.

Can I mix sizes or brands in one container?

Mixed loading can be discussed for TBR + PCR programs. Send the full size list in your RFQ and we will confirm a loading plan with the quotation.

Start with one
container — verified.

Send your sizes and destination. You will get a straight answer: a quotation for confirmed products, or a clear “we cannot supply that” — never a vague promise.
