“	“Low condition tire has less friction on the road. A critical lack of condition or pressure can also make the tire burst.”
	— In-game description

A tire is an item forming an integral part of a vehicle, and can be found in three different variants, valu-tire, regular tire and performance tire.

Usage

A tire is fitted onto the vehicle, over the top of the suspension and brakes, therefore the tire must first be removed to access either of these parts. The tires are the only part of the vehicle that makes contact with the ground, therefore the tire friction is important to reduce swerve and improve control.

Tire condition will constantly decrease, however at a much greater rate when driving off-road. Tires with low condition have far less friction on the road and are more prone to bursting. A tire also has air pressure, which must be maintained with a tire pump, otherwise the risk of the tire bursting will be increased.
