What Are Off-Road (M/T) Tires?
Off-Road (M/T) tires—also known as Mud-Terrain tires—are built for drivers who regularly tackle extreme off-road conditions. From deep mud and loose dirt to rocky trails and uneven job sites, these tires are designed to deliver maximum traction and durability where standard tires fall short.
With aggressive tread patterns, deep voids, and reinforced construction, M/T tires prioritize off-road performance above all else. Compared to All-Terrain or Highway tires, they are engineered to handle the harshest environments while protecting your vehicle in demanding terrain.

Unlike On-Road or All-Terrain tires, Mud-Terrain tires are designed with off-road use as the top priority. While they remain street-legal, drivers can expect a firmer ride and increased road noise in exchange for unmatched traction and toughness off the pavement.
