When you are looking at a tread pattern that is least likely to catch ruts are you wanting the spacing between the pins/blocks to be tighter or wider? Also what relations does the height of the tread play in trying to avoid this?

Any opinion would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.


in rough conditions i think the "i-beams" knock off the ruts ive ran buggy and truggy with i-beams . But looking at the "aka enduros" they look like the best out of any of them for rough conditions.

you want a tire that is spaced out more to fling the ruts off .
i think taller treads play into the roll to aviod it.

i tried tires like cityblocks, and jc crosshairs there tightly spaced and not to greatest for that condition from my exprience.
