Understanding what kind of truck tires are right for you and your vehicle is an important part of owning a truck. Different tires can completely change the characteristics, performance, and limitations of your truck. Crossroads Ford Lincoln talks about the different kinds of truck tires available to help you decide what’s right for you!
Truck Tires
Truck tires are good for drivers who tend to stay on paved roads. These tires work well in most climates and offer improved handling, ride, and noise capabilities over other types of truck tires. Truck tires also work in adverse weather, such as rain and snow.Â
Off-Road Tires
Off-road tires offer a large, deep tread that easily grips uneven surfaces. These tires are great for trucks that frequent rocky terrain, but don’t do so well on pavement and can be very noisy on the highway.Â
All-Terrain Tires
All-terrain tires are ideal for drivers who need both highway and off-road capabilities. They are smooth on highways and good at handling wet, rocky, or muddy terrain. All-terrain tires combine the performance of mud tires while also achieving some measure of fuel economy on the highway.
Mud-Terrain Tires
Mud-terrain tires offer wide, deep tread blocks that are perfect for muddy and uneven surfaces. They are designed to squeeze and release mud and debris, so the debris doesn’t cling to the tread unlike all-terrain or off-road tires. These tires are perfect for drivers who frequent muddy, uneven terrain. Mud-terrain tires don’t perform well on paved roads.Â
Heavy-Duty Tires
Heavy-duty tires work well for truck owners who frequently haul trailers that max out their payload. They offer reliability and durability that is good for commercial, every day, and highway driving.Â
