Types of New Tires Available at Your Ram Dealer

If you have a truck, you know that keeping it on pavement only is like keeping a toy in its packaging – no fun. Your truck can go where other vehicles could never imagine. In order to reach your full potential and do more truck stuff, you need to outfit your pickup with the right tires. Swing by your Ram dealer to discuss your adventure plans and get the right new tires for the job.

The first type of tire we are going to look at are highway terrain tires. The H/T tire is perfect for commuting and highway miles. These tires perform well in wet and dry conditions, provide a smooth, quiet ride, and have long tread life. Most highway tires can also handle heavy loads, so you can use them to pull the horse trailer and other heavy equipment.

All-Terrain

If you know that you are going to be hitting gravel and dirt roads as well as traveling the highway frequently, you want to check out all-terrain tires. The A/T tire boasts a deeper tread design that can provide a smooth ride over the pavement and grip dirt roads like a boss. Many A/T tires are engineered to handle year-round driving. These tires have a long tread life and are very durable.

Mud Terrain

If you love mudding, you want to select a tire with wide shoulder blocks, prominent tread, and durable sidewalls. Mud terrain tires are engineered to expel rocks and dirt so you can grip the trail with ease. You can even find M/T tires with tread patterns that extend all the way to the sidewalls to give you lateral grip in ditches and on slopes. These tires provide maximum durability and optimized traction in rocks, gravel, dirt, and mud.

Winter

If you love the snow and everything that comes with it, you might want to select designated winter tires. Winter tires will get you into and out of the mountains for a day of snowmobiling, sledding, and snowshoeing with ease. Snow tires are engineered to remain flexible even in extremely cold weather, which lets them grip the road even when the temperature drops.

Winter truck tires are built with microscopic slits that create thousands of biting edges to help you maintain control when on icy roads. The full-depth tread designs on winter tires channel out snow and sleet, optimizing your traction when the roads are covered.

If you are ready for some serious adventuring into the outdoors, you need to make sure that your truck has the tires to get the job done. Visit us at Freedom Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram North By Ed Morse to discuss your tire needs and schedule an appointment with our world-class service center today.
