What Are All-Terrain Tires Good For?

You want the best tires for your vehicle, but sometimes it can be hard to know which tires to choose for your lifestyle and activities. If you’re looking for a tire that will perform reliably off-road, but still provide the safe handling you need on highways or city streets, then you should consider an All-Terrain tire.

What Are All-Terrain Tires?

All-Terrain tires are “all-purpose” tires that combine the more open tread design of an off-roading tire with the precise handling of a street tire. The open tread provides good grip on surfaces such as gravel or mud, but enough tread is still in contact with the road, for responsive handling.
All-Terrain tires have reinforced sidewalls for heavier trucks and off-road driving. These tires are best for Light Trucks, Pickups, and SUVs on both paved surfaces, and on off-road terrains, since they are designed for both surfaces.

They are also a great option for drivers who don’t need studded winter tires, but still want confidence driving in winter weather. An All-Terrain tire with a 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating provides good traction in snow and on wet surfaces.

However, there can be some trade-offs. Due to air passing through the larger spaces between tread blocks, some A/T tires can be noisy, unless they have been specifically designed for noise reduction. Lastly, since less of the tire is in contact with the road due to the more open tread and flexible rubber, some consumers complain that their tires wear too fast, or don't provide the good handling they expect.

The 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake Rating
A tire with this rating has been tested and has met requirements set by the Rubber Manufacturer's Association for maintaining traction in severe snow conditions.

Are All-Terrain Tires Worth It?

If you’re shopping for an A/T tire, you’ll find that some tire models have already addressed many of the common complaints, making an All-Terrain tire a worthwhile choice for drivers that want the versatility they offer.

The Rangeblazer All-Terrain tire is a rugged, aggressive tire that was built for longevity and reliability. Certain sizes are F-Rated for towing and hauling, and the Rangeblazer’s corner shape repels rock to protect the tire against damage. The corners only enhance the tire’s serious All-Terrain grip. It’s even warrantied for 50K miles!

If you’re questioning “Are all terrain tires loud?” then you’ll be happy to know that the Rangeblazer A/T tire tread was designed with a quiet groove pattern to block noise. If you’re searching for the best A/T tire in snow conditions, feel confident that the Rangeblazer A/T carries the highest industry standard rating, the 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake, indicating excellent traction in severe snow conditions.

Make Sure You're Equipped

The Rangeblazer A/T CLX10 is versatile on a variety of terrain, for light trucks, pickup trucks, and SUVS. With serious grip, noise reduction, noise-reducing tread, and F-Rated size options, this aggressive tire also carries a 50K mileage warranty, and the 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake severe snow rating.
