Testing Pit Bull Tire’s Newest All-Terrain In All Terrains

by FAITH DUMONT January 10, 2017

Nowadays, enough is never enough. And good certainly isn’t good enough. We demand excellence, and more often than not, that’s what we get—especially with today’s new-fangled computer-designed tires. In the old days, you got the feeling tire tread was dreamt up by some kid who just hopped off his Schwinn Stingray. “Let’s add a lion’s head and dragon wings and make big, meaty lugs that’ll sound mean and pissed off.

That’ll be so kewl!” Not so anymore. In fact, nowadays, it’s pretty common for mild-mannered all-terrain designs to not only sound as quiet as a mouse but out-perform many mud-terrain tires from the past. We know; we’ve been driving on this stuff for more than 30 years. So, that brings us to Pit Bull Tire’s new PBX A/T Hardcore. It’s a light-truck radial with supple, yet strong, sidewalls; a very, very quiet on-road ride; and trial’s bike grip in all but the stickiest, gooiest mud. In short, it’s everything we’d expect from a modern all-terrain tire.
