From reference to comparable scope
If you are researching a Linglong Tire price, establish the exact tire and delivery basis before comparing alternatives. AxlePath Sourcing helps US business buyers send a common brief to prospective factories and flag what each response leaves open.

Use the full size code, service description and duty. Keep an optional tread pattern or label requirement in a separate line so it does not get mistaken for a mandatory fitment condition. Tell us whether mixed sizes may share a shipment.
Ask for MOQ per size, sample and tooling fees if applicable, packaging, first lot lead time and the event that starts it. Compare the same quantity at the same shipping term and named place. List freight, brokerage, duty and delivery separately when outside the quote.
A budget is optional. If you have a range, give the currency and tell us whether it applies per tire or to the order. Note whether that ceiling includes receiving charges. A supplier preference helps describe the trade-off between cost, packaging flexibility and documentation support.
Transcribe the complete sidewall code and identify which axle it came from. Compare it with the vehicle placard or current fitment approval. If the tire on the vehicle differs from the approved specification, flag the difference for review before asking factories to match it.
Separate sample dispatch, sample approval, production release and transit. Ask whether the quoted clock begins on order acknowledgment, deposit, packaging approval or another event. Confirm which date is the supplier's dispatch date and which is your receiving deadline.
Illustrative brief for a regional delivery fleet.
“Quote light truck tires for our vans.” One response might use passenger construction and another might include delivery, even when their headline unit prices look close.
Give the approved LT size and load range, unit count by size, permitted packaging, receiving ZIP and requested date. Ask every supplier to separate sample charges from the order total and list deviations beside each line.
Include the tire dimensions and intended duty, then tell us which quote items are still open. Use this brief to surface exceptions before you authorize a sample.
