Are you looking for LIGHT TRUCK & PICK-UP TYRES?
Pirelli tyres for pick-up trucks offer traction when driving off road, improved road handling, stability and comfort. Whether the tyres you need are for a light truck (LT), a pick-up truck or a heavy vehicle, Pirelli tyres can help you maximise the potential of your vehicle.
Pick-up truck tyres are designed to work on all types of road surfaces, on the motorway, in snow, or off road. Our tyres help you get around safely with traction suitable for weather conditions in any season, as well as any purpose.
When it comes to choosing the best tyres for your pick-up truck, the most important thing to bear in mind is where you intend to drive it. If you don’t plan on going off-road, motorway terrain (H/T) tyres are a good option for standard road surfaces in both dry and wet conditions. If your vehicle will regularly be driven off-road, you need to consider the deeper tread design offered by all-terrain tyres. Lastly, if your tyres need to cope with extreme off-road conditions, such as dirt, gravel, mud, or rock, specific mud tyres are likely to be the most sensible and safest choice.
In general, truck tyre sizes are similar to car and SUV tyres. The basic tyre size format is expressed in the same way. For example, a tyre sized as 225/45R17 shows the width of the tyre in millimetres (225), the height/width ratio of the tyre as a percentage (45), the tyre’s radial construction (R), and the diameter of the wheel in inches (17). Sometimes with truck tyres, the letters XL will be added to the end of this series; this stands for “extra load” and shows that the tyres are stronger and can support a heavier vehicle load.
FAQs
The first difference between pick-up truck and car tyres is that truck tyres are larger and wider than standard car tyres. Light truck (LT) tyres have a more rigid sidewall construction and deeper treads to handle the weight of the vehicle.
