Tires for Serious Construction Site

I just started working a new construction site building a water treatment facility and dam. The first quarter of a mile of rock (like medium size rip rap) is beating my poor tires, and 2002 civic to death. Please advise best tires to deal with this.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Someone elses tires would be best IMO.

10 ply tires under a 1 ton work truck?
Whatever tires are underneath the company truck.
Or anyone elses truck.

It's a CIVIC, not a rock crusher.



/Well, I didn't see anyone else answering... Duh.

Michelin A/T'2s outperform any other tire in gravel wear tests.

Might need new wheels though. Do they make civic lift kits?
