Tyre Reviews: All-Terrain Tire Test R18 2023

Tests of All-Terrain tires are conducted rarely enough, including due to the complexity of recreating real-world conditions, but Jonathan Benson, the founder of the Tyre Reviews portal, was not daunted by the challenges and conducted his own test of nine All-Terrain tire models. The expert selected tires which are designed to spend more time on-road; as for more aggressive tires, including those that refer to the Mud-Terrain class, Benson promised to test them in the future.
