    Over the last 58 years, Eldorado Tire has been a top player in the replacement tire market. Established as a member-owned private brand tire company, it caters to North American tire dealers. Eldorado supplies tires for passenger cars, CUVs, ATVs, commercial vehicles, SUVs, light trucks, and agricultural and specialty vehicles. It not only deals in tires, but also sells high-grade valve systems, steel wheels, weights, and other tire parts. The quality and affordability of the Eldorado tires make them the right pick for budget-conscious owners. It rolls out tires under different categories including all-terrain, mud-terrain, commercial, performance, highway, and winter.

    Designed for Jeeps, SUVs, and light trucks, the commercial grade Eldorado Trailcutter AT2 is an all-terrain tire that features an aggressive lug design and high void ratio for enhanced off-road traction, particularly on soft surfaces. The outer tread blocks of the Trailcutter AT2 can be pinned with studs to boost snow and ice traction. Thanks to its cut-and-tear-resistant compound and tough casing, it offers excellent load and towing capacity along with extra durability. It is backed by a 50,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty.
