TG Knight Utility ATV Quad And UTV Tires In The Chap Moto 25 Inch Tire Shootout

Not everyone is looking for the same thing when it comes to
shopping for ATV or UTV tires. Some people may
want the best overall tires that can do it all. Other people
may want a tire that is really good at specific tasks. For example
one person may want tires that can charge through extreme mud while
someone else may need tires that can bite hard and stop fast. At
Chaparral Motorsports we
have hundreds of SXS and ATV tires from different
manufacturers as well in a variety of models and sizes. The reason
why we have so many tires is to meet the needs and demands of all
our customers.
To help make shopping for ATV or side-by-side tires easier for our
customers we put together a 25" ATV/UTV Tires Shootout. The
Shootout consisted of 21 of our most popular tires. We came up with
five different challenges to demonstrate how each tire performs in
certain terrain and performing specific tasks. The results from
this shootout will help you make an informed decision on your next
tire purchase.
While we've covered
The Best Tires for Specific Tasks, Top 8 Best Overall
Performing Tires, as well as given an
explainer on the 5 different challenges, in this article we are
going to show you how one specific tire did in each test.
Obviously they all can't be winners but of the 21 tires and five
different challenges, each tire did have its moment of shine. And
this can be really important when tire shopping, because as stated
not everyone wants or needs the best overall tire, some people just
want the tire that's best for them.
So without further ado, here is the breakdown on
the TG
Knight Utility
The TG Knight is a middle of the road tire that can handle a
variety of scenarios and terrain but really excelled in the down
hill braking test. The offroad truck-style tread pattern was able
to push through the loamy dirt and get into some harder stuff to
bring things to a halt. The tire performed fairly well in the
high-speed braking test as well, coming in the top ten. It's not
bad as a work horse either as it was able to achieve a top ten
result in the sled pull as well.
