About Mud Tires
Mud tires are built for trucks, Jeeps, and SUVs that regularly meet soft ground, ruts, clay, and muddy access roads. At Gunnell's Tire & Auto, they are a practical choice when traction off pavement matters more than a quiet commute, and you can compare them with All-Terrain Tires if your routes stay mixed.
Their open tread and wide voids help a Mud tire clean out as it rolls, while reinforced sidewalls add confidence on rough ground. A model like the BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 is a good example of the aggressive design many drivers want for farm lanes, job sites, and weekend mud runs.
If you are unsure whether a Mud tire is too much for your vehicle, Gunnell's Tire & Auto can help you talk through size, load rating, and clearance before you buy. That way your setup matches the truck or 4x4 and still leaves room to compare Tire Consultation and Shop Tires options.
Why Choose Mud Tires?
-
Fitment first
Mud tires need the right diameter, wheel width, and clearance to work well on lifted trucks and stock 4x4s alike. Gunnell's Tire & Auto can help you check the details and then Schedule Appointment when your setup is ready.
-
Built for messy routes
When mud, ruts, and soft shoulders are part of the drive, Mud tires keep digging where All-Terrain Tires may start to pack up. That makes them a better match for rough access roads and muddy work areas.
-
A model worth comparing
If you want a familiar name in this category, the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/T is a strong reference point for aggressive Mud tire performance.
-
Support after installation
Mud tires can benefit from Wheel Balancing after mounting, especially on larger off-road sizes. Gunnell's Tire & Auto can help keep the setup smooth once the tires are on.

What to Know Before Buying Mud Tires
Before buying Mud tires, check the vehicle’s size limits, load rating, and clearance around the suspension and fenders. If your truck or SUV still spends plenty of time on pavement, All-Terrain Tires may be easier to live with and can reduce the compromises that come with a more aggressive tread.
Mud tires usually bring more road noise, a firmer ride, and shorter tread life than All-Season Tires or milder off-road choices. They are best when deep mud, ruts, and soft ground are part of the routine, not just an occasional detour. For a different mud-ready option, Falken and Nitto are worth a look.
If you are ready to narrow the fit, Schedule Appointment with Gunnell's Tire & Auto and compare the right Mud tire setup for your vehicle.
