All Terrain Tires Archive
All Terrain tires simply provide you with off road capability while still keeping things quite and comfortable on road. These tires are especially designed in a way to allow stability on both worlds.
And since it’s very tough to find the perfect balance between these two terrains, these AT tires have to undergo a lot of engineering and tread designing to achieve better results.
And that’s where I come in, so you guys can understand, exactly what’s going on with these tires.
All terrain tires are mostly seen with staggered shoulder blocks and sidewall lugs which enhance the off road handling and gripping.
Their inner construction is also much more durable, where they are mostly seen with more no. of plies to protect the sidewalls, which is very susceptible to damage off road.
These tire compared to ordinary ones are provided with larger groove voids and depth so that they can be more capable of getting dirt, mud and water out of the tire.
But with larger grooves, the tire also loses rubber to road contact and this loses the grip. That’s why all terrain tires have to compromise between the aggressiveness and the on road comfort.
