The 5 BEST CHEAP Tires for YOUR truck!
What's going on guys?
Fuller here with Custom Offsets,
Custom Offsets TV on the YouTube.
You guys left a bunch of comments
on our top five wheels under $1,000,
so we figured we'd bring you the top five tires on a budget.
So for this video, we're gonna base all the prices
off a complete set of four tires
with free shipping to the lower 48 states,
as well as free mounting and balancing
if you get a complete package.
And then for sizes,
we're comparing 33 by 12 and a halfs for 20 inch wheels.
Mud tires and hybrids are both extremely popular
in the truck market,
so you'll find both of these on this list.
So we determine what makes the list of the top five
based on popularity, data off our website,
and personal experiences from people around the shop
who have run them.
And the best news is,
all these tires are under $1,000.
Let's get into it.
So starting at number five on the list
is the Atturo Trail Blade XT.
So the XT is a hybrid tire
and the most popular 33 by 12 and a half.
So people tend to gravitate more towards the XT
rather than the MT or mud tire from Atturo,
simply because you can get better mileage out of these.
So the XT is the second highest priced tire on our list.
But it still falls plenty short of that $1,000 ceiling.
The biggest downfall to the XT
is that it doesn't run true to size,
which isn't super uncommon in the tire world,
but on these Atturos, it's really noticeable.
So this means if you're taking the 12.5
and planning to stretch it on a 14 wide wheel,
you're going to really notice that stretch,
because even on a 12 wide wheel
and you're running the 12 and a half inch tire,
you still, you don't quite have that
straight up and down sidewall,
because like I said, they do run a little bit narrow.
It does one of these.
Stretchy.
Number four on the list is the Federal Couragia MT.
And I've actually personally ran a set of these
and they did exactly what I needed them to do.
The Federal Couragia MT is known
for its very aggressive tread pattern
and they're also known for being, well, cheap.
But cheap in a good way, I guess.
Sure, they're loud and they can wear fast
if you don't properly rotate them,
but for the price you pay for these tires,
in some cases you can actually buy two sets of Federals
rather than one set of like Nittos or Toyos.
So according to Federal,
the uniquely designed incremental block edge
quickly sheds dirt, sand, and gravel
for impressive off-road traction.
That's up to you to decide if you believe it.
Federal has been a huge name
in the motor sports racing community for years
and they were actually founded in 1954,
but didn't start developing the Couragia line until 2003.
Either way, this is a really mean, aggressive looking tire
for the price point.
Number three on our list is actually a football.
No, we're actually doing the work.
So coming in at number three is the Road One Calvary,
which is basically the same price as the Federal,
but chances are you've probably never heard of it
and I was sort of in the same boat.
So I asked around the shop to see
if anybody had ran these tires and the answer was no.
So took it in my own hands and went wherever they should go
if they wanna look something up, Googled.
Even there it was proving difficult
to find reviews on this tire.
Yet somehow, according to the data on our website,
plenty of people are selecting this tire
when building their wheel and tire package.
I was able to find one article
that did shed some light on the Road One brand.
The Italian firm Pirelli recently announced
a $90 million joint venture with the Chinese tire company.
The Pirelli Road One factory actually uses Pirelli equipment
and technology to build these tires.
But because the truck tires are produced in China,
they're able to keep the cost down.
Pirelli says, this is not an existing,
shoddily made Chinese factory that we have bought into.
This is a custom made, brand new factory
with the most advanced production technologies.
So if any of you have Road One tires,
let us know in the comments below
because there's not a ton of info of these guys online.
Coming in at number two, it's actually the cheapest tire
on our list of the top five tires,
the Freepasser X-Cross MT.
If you're a subscriber from our early days
or you just binge watch 900 videos
on the Custom Offsets TV YouTube channel,
you probably remember the CO-Avi, our 2004 Chevy Avalanche.
Over the years, it's had more wheel and tire setups
than I care to count.
But the most recent was a set of Scorpions
wrapped in these Freepasser MTs.
They are an aggressive looking mud tire
with a 15 millimeter tread depth
that actually extends over the side of the tread
and onto the sidewall for extra protection while off-roading.
So with these tires, you can actually save
a pretty decent amount of money
on your wheel and tire package
if you're willing to take the risk
and take on some added road noise
as well as the potential for balancing or vibration issues.
But some of that just comes with buying cheap tires.
The moral of the story with cheap tires
is you get what you pay for.
If you're willing to take the risk,
then you can definitely save a lot of money.
The number one tire on our list, drum roll please,
the Atturo Trail Blade MT.
Now I know you're gonna be mad at me
because this is actually the most expensive tire on the list
but like I mentioned before, you get what you pay for.
So if you head out to customoffsets.com
and you browse our gallery,
you'll find over 3,000 people that are running Atturos
and that should count for something.
Plenty of people here at the shop have run Atturos
and you can get away without issues
as long as you make sure you're rotating properly.
One of the guys here, Justin, ran a set on his Ford F-150
and he was pulling his camper halfway across the country.
After about 35,000 miles,
he said he still had like 40% tread remaining
which is excellent out of a mud tire.
Whereas most brands have a car lineup
and then they also have a little bit in the truck market,
Atturo actually focuses its main production line
on the truck and SUV market.
So according to Atturo,
they use a specially crafted aluminum segmented mold
to build the Trail Blade MT.
This type of construction creates a higher degree
of uniformity throughout the tire.
But like anything, there's a downside as well.
Like I mentioned before,
it's no secret in the truck community
that the Atturos tend to run a little narrower.
So you have to keep that in mind when ordering these.
