Prior to launch, the Cybertruck was heralded as an apocalypse-proof, go-anywhere rover, and the gnarly look of the Goodyear Wrangler Territory RT tires strive to sell this notion. But on the trail we noticed these tires quickly caked with dirt, sliding across muddy slopes and spinning where the others’ on-road tires found grip. Comparing these tires with those on a Chevy Silverado 1500 ZR2 support vehicle wearing the same sidewall branding revealed dramatically shallower tread depth:
9/32 versus 14/32 of an inch.
14-9 ... haha.I need every 5/32 of inch I can get...
It's the same way with performance tires, depends on how they were designed and the size.14-9 ... haha.
I'm trying to figure out what is normal and apparently it depends on the tire size of that model.
ie. 14/32 on LT 325/65R18s Goodyear Wrangler Territory RT Tires
Gemini:
Based on information found online, the initial tread depth on the Goodyear Wrangler Territory RT can vary depending on the specific size of the tire. Here's what I found:
- Goodyear website: Unfortunately, the Goodyear website (Goodyear Tires | Shop For Tires Online) doesn't explicitly state the initial tread depth for the Wrangler Territory RT.
- Retailer websites:Several tire retailer websites mention the tread depth for specific sizes of the Wrangler Territory RT. Here are two examples:
- 325/65R18 size: This size has a tread depth of 14/32 inches according to Buy Tires Online | Shop our great selection of new tires. Low prices + fast shipping and By Type Tires.
- 265/60R22 size: This size has a tread depth of 12/32 inches according to https://www.tirerack.com/tires/goodyear-wrangler-territory-rt.
With that ruler, 5/32 would be at the 3/32 mark. That's because you gotta take into account that extra 1/16 of ruler in front of zero when you lay it in the tread.
That photo, zoomed in, looks like a deep fake!Looks that way to me. Unbelievably so. About 3/4" assuming the tire is in the air (which I think it is).

I wonder if the car wash/cleaning cleaned the outside edge of the tire?That photo, zoomed in, looks like a deep fake!
