Description
The CST Sahara A/T II is an all-season, all-terrain tire designed for 4x4 SUVs and light trucks requiring durability on rugged terrain and paved roads. Its aggressive tread features irregularly shaped blocks with serrated edges for enhanced grip on rocks, hardpack, and mud, while a reinforced radial carcass and multi-layer construction withstand heavy loads and abrasions. The softer rubber compound improves traction on mixed surfaces, and Outlined Orange Letters (OOL) offer a customizable aesthetic.
Features & Benefits
- Aggressive Tread Design: Irregular blocks with serrated edges and interconnected shoulder lugs maximize off-road traction and resist deformation under stress.
- Reinforced Radial Carcass: Multi-layer construction enhances puncture resistance and load capacity for overlanding or utility use.
- Self-Cleaning Grooves: Wide circumferential and lateral channels eject debris to maintain grip in muddy or rocky conditions.
- Soft Rubber Compound: Balances on-road comfort with off-road flexibility, adhering to hard surfaces without compromising durability.
- High Void Ratio: Optimizes traction in loose terrain while reducing road noise for highway driving.
Year Released
Launched in 2018, the Sahara A/T II targets drivers needing versatility across harsh terrains and daily commutes.
Regions Availability
Sold primarily in Europe and Russia.
Vehicle Compatibility / Popular Vehicle Fitments
- Toyota Land Cruiser / Hilux
- Land Rover Defender / Discovery
- Mercedes-Benz G-Class

- Nissan Patrol / Navara

Note: Always consult a tire specialist or the vehicle manufacturer to confirm fitment.
Final Thoughts
The Sahara A/T II excels in rocky, hardpack environments and heavy-load scenarios, making it ideal for overlanders and utility drivers in rural or mountainous regions. While its softer compound and tread design deliver reliable off-road performance, competitors like the BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 offer better wet-road handling and refinement. The Sahara’s reinforced carcass and self-cleaning tread justify its niche for drivers prioritizing durability over on-road quietness.

High quality tires for a really good price. Very much comparable to other brands such as BFG, Toyo, Cooper. It looks almost same sa maxxis at980 bravo but these look better as it has a nicer looking sidewall.
