Available to suit 15- to 22-inch diameter rims.īridgestone claims its Dueler M/T 674 uses “revolutionary 3D technology” to improve durability and off-road performance. The KM3 is also claimed to have 27 per cent tougher sidewall than the KM2 due to its “CoreGard Max” technology, which is intended to protect against punctures – it’s essentially just a fancy way of saying it’s got a thick sidewall and a ‘specialised compound’. The KM3 also comes with a “Terrain-Attack” tread pattern that is intended to ‘deliver grip from any angle of approach’. This is down to what BFGoodrich call “mud-phobic bars” on the shoulders of the tyre that have been designed to release compacted mud to improve traction.

And if you do know of a tyre we don’t have on this list then let us know and we’ll update this Guide.īFGoodrich is a household name when it comes to off-road tyres, it claims the KM3 offers 5 per cent better mud traction than the previous-generation KM2 tyre. It’s not possible for us to test every single tyre on this list, so, if you own a set of these tyres or have a mate who does, make sure you leave a comment about your experience with the tyres. Stay tuned because we’ve got a comparison test coming up that’ll look at the pros and cons of both tyre types out in the field. Muddies will eject mud and crap from the tread better than an all-terrain tyre will maintaining maximum traction where the face of an all-terrain might fill up. It’s designed to be tougher than an all-terrain, with a bigger and wider tread block to improve grip on muddy or rocky tracks. A mud-terrain tyre on the other hand is a pretty focussed piece of equipment. It does a little bit of everything well, if you like.

An all-terrain tyre is intended as, essentially, a jack of all trades it needs to work on dry and wet roads as well as off-road. Before we get into this let’s actually breakdown a few differences between all-terrain and mud-terrain tyres.
