 Since specialty tires can be much different compared to everyday vehicle tires, we thought we'd let our readers know about a handful of valuable tips when shopping for specialty tires

 

 

Not All Tires Are the Same

 

  • Tread Designs - Even if two or more tires are made by the same manufacturer, that doesn't mean that the tires tread designs are compatible. Most specialty tires are designed for major equipment. Because of that, they are designed with specific tread designs and a certain height and width.
  • Sizing - Just because a tire is marked with the same size on the sidewall, doesn't mean that they have the same height and width. Many tires are made in a manufacturer's own plant. However, many tires are outsourced to other countries and may not line up with their standards.
  • Import vs. Domestic Brands - Specialty tires are manufactured all over the world. The quality of tire can vary from brand to brand. Similar to the sizing issue, tires with the same size markings may not always match up. Imported tires can also be smaller in size.

 

 

 

Not All Tires Do the Same Thing

 

Specialty tires get their name because they are designed for a specific application. Specialty tires are designed for a specific working condition, environment and carry different amounts of weight. Because of this, some tires outperform other tires. Just because a tire works well for one application, doesn't mean it will work well for a similar purpose. 

 

 

Take Care of Your Tires

 

Many people believe that over-inflating or under-inflating a tire can change the performance of a tire. Under-inflating a tire will not allow it to carry as much weight as stamped on the sidewall. Over-inflating won't allow the tire to carry more weight either. The right air pressure is important to getting the best performance out a tire. Proper air pressure also extends the duration of a tire’s use.
