How To Choose the Right ATV/UTV Tires

Overall, both ATV and UTV tires are similar in terms of structure, tread design and tire size. The one important variation is that UTV tires need to be more durable since they are used for more work-related purposes. While ATV vehicles are used more for recreational use, these tires won't go through as much wear and tear.

Tire Ply Rating

The tire ply rating tells us how durable or heavy-duty the tires are. On average, a tire play rating of 4 or 6 is ideal for both ATVs and UTVs. However, it is important to consider what you’ll be using the vehicle for when buying or replacing the tires. If you anticipate on carrying multiple passengers and heavy cargo through rough terrain on a regular basis, you may need to consider a higher ply UTV tire for increased function and longevity.

Tread design is also an important factor to consider as it helps with traction and grip. You can find tires for all sorts of uses, like ATV mud tires for muddy or wet terrains.

When to Replace ATV or UTV Tires

UTV and ATV tires do not have an official “expiry date,” so there’s no hard and fast rule when it comes to replacing them. The more you use your vehicle and the rougher the terrain, the more likely it is that you’ll have to replace them sooner. However, there are things you can do to ensure your tires are working properly, and most important of all, safe for use.

Regular inspections can help you make sure your tires are safe and up to standard. Some things to pay attention to include worn-out tread patterns, cracks, punctures in the rubber and worn-out tread lugs. If you notice that your ATV or UTV tires have any of these issues, then it’s time to replace them.
