FAQs
What is the recommended tire pressure?
Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual or the tire's sidewall for the recommended tire pressure.
How often should I rotate my tires?
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles to ensure even wear.
What does 'POR' mean on the tire sidewall?
POR stands for 'Professional Off-Road,' which indicates the tire is designed for off-road use and is suitable for commercial applications.
How do I check the tread depth?
Use a tread depth gauge or the penny test. Place a penny with Lincoln's head facing down into the tread. If you can see the top of Lincoln's head, the tires need to be replaced.
Can I use these tires in winter conditions?
While the AT-980E can handle some snow, it is not specifically designed for severe winter conditions. For heavy snow or icy conditions, consider dedicated winter tires.
What is the warranty on these tires?
Warranty information can be found on the manufacturer's website or at the point of purchase.
Troubleshooting
Vehicle pulling to one side.

Ensure tires are properly inflated. Have the tires inspected for unusual wear patterns.
Premature tire wear.
