- — In-Game Description
Vehicle Mod: Off-Road Tires are a Common Misc. Item in Fortnite: Battle Royale. They were added in Chapter 2: Season 6.
Functionality
This item can be used on Cars to make them faster off-road, improving mobility around the island with vehicles. Off-Road Tires are larger than default tires and thus easier targets, but they also have increased Health to compensate, having 80 HP, significantly higher than the default tires' 30 HP.
If you throw them on the ground, they will transform into a stack of tires, with an option to pick them back up.
