ATV Sand Tire : What is it?
| ATV sand tires are distinguished from other tires by their lighter construction and paddle-like treads. They are designed to reduce sliding and provide traction by cutting into the terrain. They also have wide, flat surfaces to increase contact with the terrain and keep the ATV from sinking into the sand. This design makes them generally unsuitable for hard, paved surfaces, because they wear out fast and provide limited traction. |

Kinds of ATV Sand Tires include the following: |
Beach sand tires
- Beach sand tires are designed for soft, loose sands.
- They have large, thin treads that push sand backward and clear the paths.
- The front tires sometimes have lengthwise ribs that improve steering control.
Desert sand tires
- Desert sand tires are used for flat, rocky terrains with packed sands.
- They have closely packed treads to prevent punctures from sharp rocks.
- They are suitable for off-road trails and cross-country racing.

Weight: Choose a lightweight ATV sand tire for maximum flotation over loose sand. For desert tires, look for 4- to 6-ply rubber tires to minimize wear and scratches.
Tread pattern: For beach sand tires, choose one with slightly curved or angled treads to push back more sand and increase speed. For desert tires, make sure the gaps between the treads are wide enough to keep small rocks from getting stuck. |
