The Performance-Based Standards (PBS) Scheme offers the heavy vehicle industry the potential to achieve higher productivity and safety through innovative and optimized vehicle design.

PBS vehicles are designed to perform their tasks as productively, safely and sustainably as possible, and to operate on networks that are appropriate for their level of performance. The basic principle of PBS is matching the right vehicles to the right tasks. PBS vehicles are tested against 16 stringent safety standards and four infrastructure standards to ensure they fit the existing road network and are safe. The scheme has been in operation since October 2007.

Joyall 295/80R22.5 A8 premium steer tyre had received a level two PBS ranking, making it suitable for most PBS vehicle combinations. TS002 is the second highest ranking achievable via this authorized assessor and therefore allows Joyall A8 to be fitted to the majority of PBS required vehicles in Australia.
