Frequently Asked Questions

Mud terrain tires, or mud tires/M/T tires, are specialized off-road tires designed for superior grip and performance in the roughest terrain. Their rugged construction and unique rubber compounds make them the go-to choice. So, you can easily handle any challenging off-road condition.

While mainly intended for off-road use, the aggressive treads and deep grooves of mud terrain tires provide excellent traction on wet roads too. Their widely spaced lugs and open tread patterns effectively channel water away from the contact patch. Hence, this reduces hydroplaning risks and boosts grip on slippery surfaces.

Mud tires can handle light snow and rain decently, but they aren't ideal for packed snow or icy conditions. The aggressive treads and deep lugs excel in mud, gravel, dirt and rocks. However, they may underperform compared to dedicated winter tires on hard-packed snow or ice.

Yes. When driven on regular roads, all-terrain mud tires can have a negative impact on fuel efficiency and gas mileage as compared to all-terrain tires. Mud tires have aggressive tread patterns, deep lugs, and special rubber. These features give the tires a high rolling resistance, leading to greater energy consumption and reduced fuel economy.

You can replace your mud tires when the tread gets too shallow (around 2/32"). Replace them if there are signs of damage like cuts, cracks, or bulges. You should also replace them after five to six years, regardless of wear, due to possible rubber degradation. We also recommend following the manufacturer's maximum mileage rating for your specific mud tire model.
