This mod reworks the tire wear system in American Truck Simulator to behave more like real life. Once a tire's wear hits 80%, it stays locked at that level instead of continuing to degrade indefinitely.
The wear threshold kicks in after a truck's tires have covered more than 124,000 miles, while trailer tires reach the same 80% cap at 175,000 miles. The actual wear rate still depends on which tire model is equipped, keeping some variation between tire types.
It's a good fit for players who want their trucking experience to feel grounded in realistic maintenance mechanics, adding another layer of long-term vehicle upkeep to think about during long hauls.
