Can this mud-terrain tire handle mud, snow, sand, or pebbles? Are these tires affordable? To learn more, let's complete a Predator New Mutant X-MT review.
Features and Benefits
Designed with adventurers in mind, mud-terrain tires have a larger tread that focuses on boosting traction and mud expelling sipes to save you from becoming trapped. Massive shoulder blocks and chic dual sidewall designs offer the Predator New Mutant X-MT tire maximum traction on even the trickiest terrain. Learning about the features and benefits of these tires will assist you in making an informed decision.
- Good mud-terrain traction: For improved grip on muddy terrain, the staggered tread blocks have an optimized void ratio. With its aggressive tread design, the vehicle can easily navigate through soft, loose, and uneven terrain. It has a tread pattern with an advanced "X" for optimal grip in any off-road condition. The tire's traction in ruts, deep mud and loose dirt is also improved by the shoulder block edges and the textured sidewall.
- Decreased risk of hydroplaning: Deep tread depth and deep siping work together to offer hydroplaning resistance.
- Improved handling: In addition to providing extra biting edges for cornering, the sculpted sidewall blocks and stepped shoulder block edges guard against side-slipping. The tread blocks are composed of a durable rubber combination to increase contact with the ground. Along with the sidewall blocks, the shoulder block edges reinforce the sidewall structure by extending over the shoulders. Additionally, the vehicle has grooves that improve its cornering ability.
- Self-cleaning ability: Zigzag grooves effortlessly remove mud, snow, and other debris from the footprint and direct it out via the open shoulder because of the high void ratio. Mud and stone ejectors installed between shoulder lug blocks aid in the removal of mud and the prevention of stone drilling.
- Increased durability: The strong rubber compound and self-cleaning construction of the Predator New Mutant X-MT tires make them extremely durable. In addition to being sizable, the tread blocks are composed of a durable rubber combination that increases the tire's overall longevity.
- Dual sidewall design: A dual sidewall design allows drivers to select the style that best suits their riding. The aggressive "X-TREME SPIKE" X-MT dual sidewall design not only adds off-road traction and sidewall armor, but it also provides enthusiasts with cosmetic options.

These went on the truck and immediately were out to the test. They've stood up to website we've thrown at them-- mud, rain, ice, snow, and they're much quieter on the highway and intestate than our last set. These are great, we will get these again!
So these tires might be alright on a jeep but they're absolutely worthless on a truck pulling a trailer. I got the load range f for my one ton and I have to take them off. Made a trip up north last weekend with a trailer I've been pulling for years. Was always able to pull it at 85 mph with zero issues. With these tires, I could barely keep it on the road at 65. No wind, tires inflated properly, exact same load. Absolute junk
