Gladiator X Comp M/T Product Description

This listing is for new Gladiator X Comp M/T LT185/85R16 D/8PLY BSW Tires. Manufacturer part number: 1932266882.

The Gladiator X Comp M/T is a maximum-traction mud-terrain tire for Jeeps, light trucks, and SUVs, built for aggressive off-road capability and a bold, wide-shoulder stance at a budget price. Produced by American Pacific Industries (API), it is one of the highest-volume mud tires on the market, backed by an impressive 100% Free Replacement Warranty (during early treadwear) and a 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee.

The engineering behind the X Comp M/T is far more heavy-duty than its price point suggests. It features a true heavy-duty 3-ply casing with a high sidewall turn-up, reinforced under the tread face by two full steel belts and two full-width nylon cap plies. This layout resists sidewall punctures, cut hazards, and tread tearing when running low pressures (airing down) over sharp rocks and roots. The deep, high-void tread pattern utilizes aggressive shoulder lugs and integrated stone-ejector ribs to prevent debris retention and continuously self-clean in deep mud, slush, and sand.

Owner feedback is consistent and practical: thirty to forty thousand miles of service life is common for drivers who perform regular rotations at every oil change, maintain inflation pressures in the low-to-mid 40s, and keep alignment and shocks in spec. Under these maintenance conditions, owners report it stays surprisingly civil on the highway; skip rotations, and the massive tread blocks will quickly cup and develop a severe pattern hum.

One critical fitting note: flotation-sized mud tires across all manufacturers commonly measure slightly smaller in actual overall diameter once mounted and inflated under load than the nominal numbers stamped on the sidewall. If precise tire clearance under a lift kit is critical to your build, check the actual measured specs for your specific size before mounting.

Best-suited for: Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Gladiator, Ford F-150 and F-250, Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and 2500, Ram 1500 and 2500, Toyota Tacoma, Toyota Tundra.
