Picking tires for a vehicle that splits its time between daily commuting and weekend off-roading is far more involved than selecting tires for a car that spends its entire life on asphalt. So if you’ve got a Jeep, truck, or SUV that’s driven both on- and off-road, you’ve got a host of other factors to consider.
To help you out, the folks over at Summit Racing made a quick video that’ll discuss some of these special tire selection considerations, and highlight four specific all-terrain tire models that get progressively more focused towards an off-road bias:
- BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 Tires
- Nitto Ridge Grappler Tires
- Toyo Open Country M/T Tires
- Mickey Thompson Baja Pro XS Tires
While the video does address some specific features of each tire listed above, it’s packed with some good general information about all-terrain tire design and construction that can guide you to the best tires for your truck or SUV.
And it’s only about four minutes long, so it’s worth the watch if you’re in the market for all-terrain or off-road tires.
4 ply? Dude…. I drive a truck, not a VW.
