Make More Time For Mudding: Automate Off Road Wheel And Tire Upkeep

Today’s post explains how our off-road wheel and tire technicians simplify shopping and maintenance for adventure-minded drivers looking to make for time for mudding!

Read on to learn more, or contact your local TIRECRAFT to speak with an off-road wheel and tire technician straight away.

Start Smart: Choose The Right Off-Road Wheel And Tire Type

If you’re trying to take your 4×4 out for a day of mudding with street tires, you’re asking for trouble. Keep the winch handy—you’ll probably need it! What’s more, spinning your wheels in the mud can put a lot of unwanted wear on your treads, putting you in need for a street tire replacement much sooner than you’d expected.

You require the right tires for the specific job or fun activity, and we get it—if you’re just getting into the wonderful world of off-roading, the sheer number of different options can be overwhelming. Unfortunately, there’s no universal, all-round best option for off-road wheels and tires, as every product is designed with specific vehicles and driving conditions in mind. Don’t worry—your local TIRECRAFT technician is standing by to help, and you’re only a few clicks away from getting personalized off-road wheel and tire recommendations.

Without question, stock, or original equipment (OE) tires are not the best choice for mudding. Chances are they handle great on the highway, but everything changes in the mud! For lighter mudding, you’ll need all-terrain tires, like the BFGoodrich All-terrain. They’re a jack-of-all-trades option, providing great performance on the street while also being able to stand up to lighter off-road terrain.

But if you want true performance in deep mud, you’ll need to invest in mud-terrain off-road wheels and tires, like the Toyo Open Country Mud Terrain. These tires have larger tread blocks with more space between each block, and they’re designed to grip in any conditions, with self-cleaning treads that evacuate mud all on their own.

If you want to take it a step further, you might want to explore your extreme all-terrain tire options, although these are not suitable for highway driving. Whatever you need, your local TIRECRAFT technician will help you find it, fast, so you can make more time for mudding!
