Import Tips

• Verify the wheel assembly is specifically for works trucks under heading 8709; provide manufacturer specs confirming non-lifting equipment use

• Include detailed invoices specifying tire type (pneumatic/solid), rim material, and load capacity to avoid misclassification as auto parts

• Ensure compliance with DOT tire standards if applicable, and retain assembly diagrams to prove integral part status
