The correct tire is a key to successfully learning how to off-road.
Spend any amount of time reading about becoming an off-roader and one thing becomes clear: it’s not about the fancy schmancy stuff. In fact, you can have plenty of fun and adventure with one or more friends and some basic equipment, the manual.com says. However, drivers who want to modify their trucks have plenty of chances and choices in the after-market.
Start your upgrades with the most important basic of all – the tires.
Onxmap.com suggests there are four things to think about. One is a map so you know where you are going. Another is gear that is good for the terrain. A third is a buddy so you don’t travel alone. And, the fourth is the truck or SUV.
“You read that right: The type of vehicle you choose is last on our list. Because, almost any vehicle can navigate some type of dirt road,” onxman.com. “And, while rock crawlers and dune buggies are fun—okay, really fun—don’t let the vehicle get in your way of going off-roading.”
Off-road tires provide traction, stability, and handle all types of terrain.
Roadtrippers.com agrees that tires are of prime importance. “Of all the possible modifications that can be made to a vehicle to make it more off-road capable, tires are arguably the most important,” roadtrippers.com says. “And as long as you don’t take on any advanced terrain—like slick mud or sand dunes—a good set of all-terrain tires may be the only upgrade you need to start off-roading. Just don’t forget to bring a spare.”
The first step to choosing a tire is deciding what type of terrain you will be driving on. For example, if you’re planning on rock crawling, you will need a tire with different design than you need to drive on a highway. Likewise, it takes a different style tire if you’re mud bogging or mall crawling.
Off-road tires are specialized and can do well on multiple terrains.
A mud-terrain tire will make some noise on the road, themanual.com says. But it can also be used on snow or sand. And, an all-terrain tire is another choice for those who expect to encounter a wide variety of non-hardcore surfaces. But, the final decision comes after you set your budget.
