Sorry, but LRR has no industry definition and the way it is used means that the tire with that designation has lower RR compared to other similar tires - meaning same wear and traction characteristics.

So you can have tires that have terrible RR, but because they are better than "similar tires", they would be designated LRR.

It pays to be careful when buying tires.
