All-Terrain Tyres

All-terrain tyres are designed for use on and off-road. They are suitable for on-road use as they provide good grip in both wet and dry conditions, good driving comfort, and aren’t too detrimental to a vehicle’s fuel economy.

The more obvious benefits come when the vehicle is taken off-road. Your vehicle will be able to cope with a set of different challenges when fitted with all-terrain tyres. For anyone planning on off-road driving, all-terrain tyres deserve serious consideration.

To ensure all-terrain tyres don’t get damaged on rough/rocky terrain, the tyre’s surface, sidewalls and carcass inside are far stronger than on standard tyres.

To provide additional grip and traction on muddy or slippery surfaces the tread is deeper and has radically different grooves to a standard road tyre. This additional grip is vital if you are towing anything heavy off-road, where maximum traction is required. Heavy loads can be pulled on slippery surfaces with very little friction.

The all-terrain tyres provide a practical compromise between off-road maximum traction tyres and on-road all-weather tyres, but they are a compromise. When you choose all-terrain tyres you sacrifice some ride comfort, road noise and fuel economy.
