What Your Tire Says About Your Lifestyle

Your lifestyle choices define you, and your tire choice often reflects your lifestyle. Why not let others know what you’re all about? What you do on your weekends is a major part of who you are. Admit it – it’s great to let the world know you’re not just another weekend couch potato. There’s a wide range of tire and wheel packages that will not only upgrade your vehicle’s performance; they’ll also let you make a commanding and eye-catching lifestyle statement.

Tires Built for Speed

Perhaps you’re a fan of the “jackrabbit start” approach to your off-road adventures? You most likely also prefer to get out of a deep mud hole as quickly as you can. It pays to combine your statement-making choices with your rig’s performance needs. It’s not too hard to find the right tire and wheel set to cover the demands of off-roading and pavement driving while you also display your lifestyle choices. If you have a need-for-speed attitude, you’ll find tires for that too.

The right off-road tires will blast you through your off-roading excursions and also perform well on city streets and highways. You won’t need to stick to the slow lane. If speed’s your number one goal, you can even go all the way and grab a set of tires specifically designed for off-road racing. Not all racing tires, however, are legal for the street; check with your retailer before you make a final decision. Reputable dealers are an excellent source of reliable tire-and-wheel advice.

Tires Built for Any Terrain

Whether you call them tractor tires, All Terrain, Jack of All Trades, or A/T tires, you’ll appreciate more than the aggressive look they add to your rig. If you’re a member of an off-roading group or club — or thinking of joining one — you don’t want to find yourself stuck “bringing up the rear.” Plowing through mud or getting over fallen logs needn’t be a slow-motion exercise. Your factory-installed tires, however, may not reflect the best option for keeping up with the rest of the pack.

Your stylistic leanings may influence your wheel and tire choices but don’t neglect to consider the worst that Mother Nature might serve up. Keep in mind your daily commuting needs and inclement weather. Choose a tire set that’s well-suited for off-roading and also for city streets and highways. If you plan on carrying heavy loads or hooking up a trailer, it pays to check a tire set’s weight-load rating.

Getting There With Style, Performance, and Some Expert Guidance

If your focus is on your wheels and not just the rubber around them, take a look at the Mickey Thompson Classic III line. Match these wheels up with a set of Micky Thompson Baja Legend, Pro, or Boss rugged terrain tires and you’ll get the message across in style. You’ll also be well-prepared for whatever your off-road weekends throw at you.

Will your tires stand up to what you plan to put them through – off-road and on wet, slippery, or snowy highways? To meet the demands of your lifestyle adventures and your Monday-to-Friday commutes, give some thought to what tire type will get you through your full seven-day week. Checking in with a reputable online or nearby tire and wheel retailer can put you in touch with some expert guidance.
