All-season tyres are good for pavement driving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If you drive maximum on the rough, rocky surface with a lot of mud then off-road tyres will be a suggestion for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Off-road tyres, also known as mud tyres have knobby tread patterns and stiffer sidewalls which help in easy driving over rocks and mud without puncture.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Prefer all-terrain tyres when the maximum of the times truck is driven on the street but at times go off roads too.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_936\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-936\" style=\"width: 940px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-936\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fleeca.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/how-to-choose-right-tyres-for-Trucks.jpg\" alt=\"how to choose right tyres for Trucks\" width=\"940\" height=\"788\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fleeca.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/how-to-choose-right-tyres-for-Trucks.jpg 940w, https:\/\/www.fleeca.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/how-to-choose-right-tyres-for-Trucks-300x251.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fleeca.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/how-to-choose-right-tyres-for-Trucks-768x644.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-936\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">how to choose the right tyres for Trucks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Choosing the Right Tyre Size<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It is recommended that the new tyres should be of the same size as the old tyres were.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know the size of the existing tyres you can check the owner\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s manual or the sticker on the inside panel of the driver\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s road,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">there you will get the information about the tyre\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s size.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Learn to read the tyres:<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Every tyre sidewall has ratings written on them.
