One of the most attractive features of the Ford Raptor is the capability it has to not only be an off road vehicle, but that one that can seamlessly roam the streets of Utah and help you commute to work just as smoothly. It has become a very popular all-purpose vehicle for Ford fans and is available at your local Ford dealers. One thing that Ford fans may not be aware of however is the fact that the Ford Raptor, on top of all of its other impressive features, has custom tires built specifically for this multi-purpose truck.

Tire Specs

In picking the tires for the new model of the popular Raptor truck, Ford went the extra mile. The company did not just select tires from the already available stock that would best fit the truck. With a truck this versatile, Ford went ahead and designed the tires from scratch. By doing this, the company could make sure that the Ford Raptor could handle whatever the Utah environment could throw at it. The 2017 Ford Raptor will now come equipped with four BF Goodrich T/A KO2 all terrain tires. These tires were tested and put through the same development process as Ford’s even more popular Ford F150 — which is known by Ford dealers to be one of the toughest trucks around. 

Notable Features

One of the first things that an owner of the new Raptor will notice about the tires is that the tread is very aggressive looking with its rough off-road style. Rest assured that it is designed to be safe and effective with a wider surface and a steel/nylon belt system which allows for smoother rides on paved roads. The best way to find out if this is the exact truck that you have been looking for and to see the new tires for yourself is to head down to any one of your local Ford dealers from West Valley City to all around the state of Utah.
