Different types of tires have different product characteristics and uses, HT tires, AT tires and MT tires are a classification. HT, AT and MT all belong to off-road tread tires, generally used on off-road vehicles, according to the different conditions of use, mainly divided into three kinds: road-terrain tires, all-road-terrain tires and mud-terrain tires.

First of all, the most common HT tires, the full name is Highway-terrain, is also the most commonly used tires for all types of SUVs. Of course, according to the actual use, it can not be called off-road tires, comfort is the most important, off-road performance is rather secondary. Generally speaking, HT tires can only be used for extremely light off-road or unpaved road conditions. the disadvantage of HT road tires is that in the off-road section, because of its shallow and dense tread pattern, it is easy to be mud paste, and then lose grip, in addition to the more fragile tire wall is also easy to be cut by rocks.

But HT also has its own benefits, compared with other types, HT tire wall is softer, tread pattern is fine, can bring you a good road driving feeling. If you only drive to and from work every day, and rarely go to the city suburbs, then HT tires are undoubtedly the best choice.

AT tires are also different from HT tires in terms of material and structure, with thicker walls and excellent tear resistance, making them stronger in daily use and relatively longer in life. The difference between AT tires is also very big, and is the most complex of the off-road tires. There are tires that focus on sand off-road, road driving, and mud driving.

AT all-terrain tires can also meet the moderate off-road, but also can take into account a certain road performance, so if you are usually running in the city, and then go to the countryside on weekends to cross a wilderness or a small crossing, with this AT tires are no problem.

As for the MT tires, known as Mud-terrain, this model of tires almost only off-road enthusiasts will choose, MT tires are a bias toward extreme off-road tires, compared with AT tires, the pattern is larger, and has a large longitudinal and horizontal grooves, easy to discharge the mud between the pattern, off-road road grip is very strong. However, when driving on paved roads, the comfort is greatly reduced. This type of tire is designed to work in a 90% off-road to 10% on-road environment. By the way, I would like to remind those who are ready to choose MT tires, if you choose MT tires, then less touchdown rubber will speed up the wear of the tires and you will sacrifice a lot of road driving performance.

In addition, MT tires are also prone to loss of control in rainy days due to less contact area with the ground. So whether to use MT tires and when to use MT, you must have a good idea, never careless.

Overall, the choice of tires must be adapted to local conditions. There is no best but the most suitable, in the applicable conditions to play its best quality utility, to provide drivers with comfort and safety or driving pleasure.
