Off-Road Tires — Right Size for Your Lift
Lift height dictates max tire diameter. We check clearance against your specific chassis — not a generic calculator — and flag when you'll need to trim or add a spacer.

AT
All-Terrain (AT)
Daily driver meets weekend warrior
Aggressive enough for gravel, sand, and light mud but quiet enough for highway use. The most popular choice for overlanders and dual-purpose builds. Tread life is typically 50,000–70,000 km.
Best for
- ›Overland touring
- ›Gravel roads
- ›Light mud
- ›Daily driver
Popular options
BFGoodrich KO2, Falken Wildpeak AT3W, Toyo Open Country AT III, Cooper Discoverer AT3
RT
Rugged Terrain (RT)
Between AT and MT — serious grip, liveable noise
Larger tread blocks than AT with more void ratio. Better in loose dirt, rocks, and wet conditions. Noisier than AT on-road. Good compromise for rigs that spend 40%+ of time off-road.
Best for
- ›Rocky trails
- ›Soft sand
- ›Moderate mud
- ›Overland with teeth
Popular options
Falken Wildpeak RT01, Nitto Ridge Grappler, Toyo Open Country RT
MT
Mud-Terrain (MT)
Purpose-built for serious off-road
Maximum void ratio for self-cleaning in deep mud, rock crawling grip, and extreme terrain. Loud on-road, short tread life, and firm ride. Best suited to weekend rigs or dedicated off-road vehicles.
Best for
- ›Deep mud
- ›Rock crawling
- ›Boggy tracks
- ›Dedicated off-road
Popular options
BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain KM3, Mickey Thompson Baja Boss MT, Nitto Trail Grappler
