Understanding truck marking designations

All tyres for the commercial vehicles must be marked with a Service Description located after the size designation (European regulation ECE-R54). The service description consists of load index and speed rating (e.g. 156/150 L). Here is an example of the tyre size designation for commonly used truck tyre:
Designation: 315/80R22.5 156/150 L (154/150 M)
The designation meaning:
315 The tyre width (the nominal section width) expressed in mm.
80 The aspect ratio (the ratio of sidewall's section height to the tire's section width) in % (80%).
R The construction code (the radial construction).
22.5 The rim diameter in inches.
156/150 The load index for single and dual fitment.
L The speed rating - the tyre's maximum speed. See the speed index table.

The load index indicates the maximum tyre load capacity for single and dual fitment. The first number: 156, means that the maximum tyre load carrying capacity is 4000 kg for the single fitment. The second number: 150, indicates the maximum load carrying capacity of 3350 kg for the dual fitment.
For e.g., a tyre with the load and speed index of 156 L is designed for the load of 4000 kg and the maximum speed of 120 km/h. The tyre manufacturers have the option of marking tyres with an additional load/speed index for an alternative higher speed or load. That code may be placed in a circle near basic designation (e.g. 154/150M).
