# Highway tires
Highway tires are strong, long-lasting tires that are often used on light trucks and SUVs due to their ability to handle the heavier weight of these vehicles and haul materials. While ideal for use on highways and paved roads, highway tires can be used off-road from time to time so that drivers can bring materials to a job site. 

Highway tires are available from many best-in-class tire manufacturers, such as <a title="Shop for Goodyear Highway Tires" href="/brands/goodyear-tires/categories/highway">Goodyear</a>, <a title="Shop for Hankook Highway Tires" href="/brands/hankook-tires/categories/highway">Hankook</a>, <a title="Shop for Bridgestone Highway Tires" href="/brands/bridgestone-tires/categories/highway">Bridgestone</a> and <a title="Shop for Nexen Highway Tires" href="/brands/nexen-tires/categories/highway">Nexen</a>.

A Family Happily Driving Down the Highway

Highway tires

primary

Highway terrain tires are commonly used on light trucks and SUVs that typically haul materials or need to conquer highways and some off-road terrains.

Vehicle

This product is not covered by a manufacturer’s treadlife warranty.

Mileage Warranty

The maximum carrying capacity for a tire determined by the manufacturer.

Load Index

Maximum speed capability to safely carry a load for an extended period of time.

Max Speed

The maximum load carrying strength at the specified inflation pressure, also known as ply rating.

Load Range

The side of the tire between the tread and rim, with cosmetic branding as well as information about the tire including manufacturer, model, size, etc.

Sidewall

Standards that measure treadwear, temperature resistance and traction, example: "640 A A".  The 640 is the treadwear test and it lasted 6.4 times longer than the comparison tire tested against.  The first "A" is the traction rating using straight-line wet traction on test surfaces (see information tables tab) and the second "A" is the temperature rating by testing operation at high speeds without heat-related failure (see information tables tab).

UTQG

Wet Traction is a piece of the UTQG for example if  UTQG is: 500 AA A, the wet traction piece is the second piece, the "AA".

Wet Traction

Measured in 32nds of an inch, this metric shows how much tread life is left on a tire, with the tire's traction & stopping capabilities greatly diminished at 4/32nds and less. Tire manufacturers include "tire wear bars" at 2/32nds to indicate when your tire is worn out.

Tread Depth

An identifier of a particular tire line and size combination assigned by the tire manufacturer.

Part Number

Tread design (or tread pattern) can affect handling, traction & noise for different driving styles & road conditions.
