Troubleshooting
Increased road noise on pavement
This is often a characteristic of aggressive off-road tires. Ensure tires are properly balanced and inflated. Driving at moderate speeds can also reduce perceived noise. If the noise is excessive or unusual, have the tires inspected by a professional.
Uneven tire wear
Check tire inflation pressures and ensure they are correct for your vehicle. Rotate tires regularly (e.g., every 5,000-7,500 miles) as per your vehicle's manual. If the problem persists, consult a tire professional to check wheel alignment and suspension.
Reduced traction in wet conditions on-road
While designed for off-road, on-road wet traction can be less than dedicated highway tires. Drive with caution, reduce speed, and increase following distance in wet conditions. Ensure tread depth is adequate.
