Top 5 Reasons to Choose the Accelera Badak X-Treme Off-Road Tire for Your Next off-road Adventure
Letting air pressure out of your tires or “airing down” to the point of what most people would consider a flat tire, might seem like the opposite of everything you have ever learned about tires. However, in the off-road world, it is one of the single best things you can do when off the pavement. Lowering the tire pressure of your tires has many key benefits, the biggest being that it increases the surface area of the tire tread that is interacting with the ground.
If you’re in the mood to explore every terrain then an all-terrain is what you need. The Accelera Omikron AT tire is designed to maneuver all-terrain conditions. Some key features include interlocked and intermediate blocks, two main grooves with notches, and block stepped edges.
The TL;DR: Yes I know we just took one but now our containers from earlier in the year have arrived and ocean freight prices are in another universe so here we are.

As many of you know from reading my other content, I'm competing in the SCCA Time Trials series, which requires a 200 Treadwear or higher tire for everything but the most extreme cars that compete.

Rallying is a world that requires a tough, durable tire that can give you grip on all terrains whether that be mud, gravel, sand, or snow.
The two MRF rally tires, the ZDM3, and the ZG3, have both been designed to tackle the most fierce rally and rallycross competitions on the planet. The MRF (Madras Rubber Factory) is an Indian Multinational Tyre manufacturing company, they manufacture tires for a range of uses from motorbikes to trucks.
We all know that motorsports is a high risk activity. Being given the opportunity to push multiple thousands of pounds of metal around you to positions and levels of grip that you simply don't see on public streets can take its toll on the machine, as well as the person, in the best of circumstances.
