Performance Tires For Every Ride
Motorcycle Tires
Motorcycle tires are engineered for precision. Every component, from the tread to the sidewall, plays a role in grip, handling, and safety. The right tire ensures stability in corners, traction on wet pavement, and a smoother ride overall.
Tire Lifespan
Most motorcycle tires last between 10,000 and 15,000 miles, depending on your riding style. Rubber also ages even if you aren’t riding daily. Any tire older than five years should be replaced, regardless of tread depth. Checking the DOT code stamped on the sidewall is the quickest way to know a tire’s age.
Tire Care & Maintenance
Regular maintenance is key to performance and safety. Riders should check tire pressure before every ride, inspect tread depth, and look for cracks or uneven wear. Proper storage—away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures—will also extend tire life. When you have new tires installed, it's important to ride cautiously for the first 100 miles or so to allow the tread to seat properly.
Dirt Bike Tires
Dirt bike riders need tires built for traction and control on unpredictable terrain. Soft-terrain tires are ideal for sand and loam, with tall, widely spaced knobs that dig in and clear easily. Hard-terrain tires use shorter, more tightly packed tread for rocky or compacted trails. Intermediate tires provide versatility when your riding takes you across mixed conditions. No matter your preference, regularly checking knob wear and sidewall condition is essential for safety and handling.
UTV & ATV Tires
Tires Built For Your Riding Style
UTV and ATV riders face different challenges, from rocky trails to deep mud. Choosing the right tire comes down to how and where you ride.
-
Casual riders benefit from all-terrain tires, which balance traction and comfort.
-
Sport and racing riders need lighter tires with responsive handling.
-
Utility riders depend on heavy-duty treads and reinforced sidewalls to handle tough loads and rough ground.
Terrain-Specific Choices
-
Mud: Look for aggressive tread with self-cleaning patterns.
-
Sand: Paddle or ribbed tires keep you from sinking.
-
Rocky terrain: Reinforced sidewalls protect against punctures.
-
Mixed terrain: All-terrain tires handle a variety of surfaces.
How To Choose The Right Tire
Whether you’re on two wheels or four, your tires should match your machine and your riding environment. A sport bike rider carving corners has different needs than a UTV rider climbing rocks. Checking age, tread, and inflation are non-negotiables for everyone. When in doubt, our team at 2Brothers Powersports is here to help match you with the right tire.
