Before buying extra-deep tread tires: the most rubber for the hardest work

Extra-deep tread tires are tires with the deepest tread made for their type, built for work that wears tread fast or needs the deepest grip: rock, flooded fields, deep mud and long-haul drive axles. The extra depth adds rubber volume to wear through and keeps lugs biting longer into the tire's life.

Extra-deep tread codes and types to check when ordering

  • R-2 farm tires have lugs about twice as deep as R-1 tires, for rice, cane and flooded fields; see rear tractor tires.
  • L-4 and L-5 loader tires have deep and extra-deep rock treads for quarries, mines and scrap yards; see loader and dozer tires.
  • Extra-deep truck drive tires start with about 30/32 in. of tread or more, for high-mileage and regional fleets; see drive tires.
  • Mud-terrain light truck tires run the deepest tread among pickup and Jeep tires; see mud-terrain tires.

Speed and heat limits to weigh before buying

Extra-deep tread builds more heat at speed, because tall lugs flex under load. Extra-deep loader tires such as L-5 are built for slow work and short hauls; machines that travel long distances at speed between loads choose a shallower tread code. Extra-deep truck drive tires run warmer and roll with slightly more resistance than standard-depth drive tires.

Extra-deep vs. deep tread tires

Extra-deep tread tires suit the most abrasive or slippery work, where standard and deep tread tires wear out or lose grip too soon. Deep tread tires cost less and run cooler for mixed work.

Cost per hour or mile when buying

Extra-deep tread tires cost more per tire, so fleets and farms compare them by cost per hour of work or cost per mile. In rock or flooded fields, the extra depth usually lasts long enough to pay back the higher price.

Sizes and ply rating to match when ordering

Extra-deep tread tires are ordered by the size, tread code and ply or load rating on the current tire, such as 18.4-38 R-2, 23.5-25 L-5 or 11R22.5 load range G.
