Belted Sledgehammer Tires

Sledge’s belted Sledgehammer® tires deliver game-changing stability and control whether you’re slinging mud or setting speed records. The wide, open-block tread design won’t clog up with dirt or debris and the lightweight belting maintains the tire’s shape for a larger contact patch, more grip, and responsive handling at any speed.
