Typical use
SUVs, pickups and 4x4s on 17-inch wheels.
Main categories
- H/T for road-biased use.
- A/T for mixed road and rough-road use.
- More aggressive patterns only where the operating conditions justify them.
What changes with A/T
Compared with a road/H/T tyre, an A/T tread typically prioritizes mixed-surface traction and durability. The trade-off can be more tread noise, different steering feel and sometimes higher rolling resistance.
Fitment considerations
Check the exact load and speed specification and ensure the chosen pattern is appropriate for the vehicle’s actual use. Do not change overall diameter without a proper fitment check.
Brands to ask about for this size
