FUEL GRIPPER TIRES | TIRE BUYING GUIDE
Fuel Off-Road is a US-based company from Rancho Dominguez, California. It was established in 2009 by MHT Luxury Alloys, which is based in Pompano Beach, Florida, according to Dun & Bradstreet. MHT Luxury Alloys makes wheels and tires, specializing in muscle cars and off-roaders. Although a company that was founded over a decade ago is mature in most settings, in the tire industry, it’s a tire brand in its infancy. That said, Fuel Off-Road tires have earned a reputation for being a high quality, rugged brand of off-road, mud-terrain and all-terrain tire.
Fuel Offroad fans love their Grippers. Not only do they perform well on road and off, but they look cool. The Gripper A/T is the most “drivable” tire of the collection, meaning it is designed to go on- and off-roading comfortably and quietly. Gripper M/T or mud tire, is designed with deep grooves to eject debris when you’re off the pavement. Gripper XT is Fuel’s most aggressive tire, meaning it is a mud tire with big tread blocks and wide grooves. As you move up from AT to MT to XT, you sacrifice road noise and comfort for grip and durability. It’s a tradeoff you’ll get from any brand of mud tire or extreme mud tire.
Fuel Tire Categories
Tire Agent carries the Gripper brand of tire from Fuel Off-Road, in the AT (all terrain), MT (mud terrain) and XT, which is a hybrid all-terrain/mud-terrain tire.
UTQG ratings include a numerical rating called treadwear, which is how the manufacturer’s tire tests stack up against a government standard test tire in the same category. The US Department of Transportation established the guidelines for rating tires, but tire makers self-test and self-report. Compare Fuel’s all-terrain Gripper A/T tire against other all-terrain tires in the same category. Its average treadwear of 600 means their A/T tires are expected to be more durable than others in the same category, which average 506 (on a scale of zero to 1,000). That said, treadwear depends on your aggressive vs non-aggressive driving style, terrain, your vehicle, and how well you take care of your tires through proper inflation, rotation and balancing.
