Thread: All terrain tyres

If you want your ATs to last the distance, they need to be balanced and rotated every 10,000km under normal duty, 5,000km in heavy duty conditions especially in rough mud or rocks where there’s an increased risk of loosing balancing weights.

I check wheel alignment every 10,000km just because what I do with my truck is hard case, if it gets a real hammering up front I’ll check the toe and caster marks myself, you’d be amazed how much they can move out of spec during a heavy session up the S Island braided rivers, or in the mud and steep country in the central N Island. The trick is always to run low pressures when you’re in the rough stuff, makes a massive difference not just to traction but wear and tear as well.
