28x6.00R15LT Sportsman S/R Tire

The 28x6.00R15LT Sportsman S/R Tire by Mickey Thompson is purpose-built for drivers who demand serious off-road and light truck performance without compromise. This bias-ply light truck tire excels in high-load applications where sidewall strength and traction take priority over daily comfort, making it the go-to choice for Jeeps, trucks, and modified rigs that see mixed terrain. Whether you're running aggressive terrain, utility work, or competitive off-road events, this tire delivers the durability and grip that separates weekend warriors from serious operators.

Mickey Thompson engineered the Sportsman S/R with aggressive open tread blocks and reinforced sidewalls to handle extreme puncture resistance and lateral load transfer during turning and climbing. The R-rated speed rating pairs with the LT (light truck) load range to support elevated GVWRs typical of lifted trucks and expedition vehicles carrying gear, passengers, and recovery equipment. The 28-inch overall diameter and 6.00-inch width provide a classic 15-inch rim fitment that works across vintage and modern platforms, while the bias-ply construction offers superior sidewall flex for rock crawling and soft-surface traction over radial alternatives in extreme conditions.

This tire is ideal for owners of full-size trucks, Jeep Wranglers, and vintage 4x4s running 15-inch wheels who prioritize off-road capability and load-carrying capacity. The 20.45-pound weight per tire is typical for this application class and distributes evenly across suspension geometry without requiring modifications to stock or mildly lifted systems. Verify your vehicle's load rating, rim width tolerance (typically 5.5–7 inches for 6.00-width tires), and sidewall clearance before installation, particularly if you've added body lifts or larger fenders that may impact tire wall contact during full articulation.
