What this mod does

BadMae’s Grip & Rip Tire Pack is a tire pack by MrBadMae for the cars from American Truck Simulator’s Road Trip: Ford DLC. It gives each vehicle two new tire options, front and rear, to change how the car handles.

What’s included

  • Super Sticky: front and rear tires with more grip, designed for taking corners faster.
  • Burnout Slicks: tires that lose traction easily, for doing burnouts.

The author says he may add more tiers if the community asks for them. The description doesn’t list the cars, but the comments mention the Bronco, Mustang and Crown Victoria.

Author’s tips

One user worried that, with so much grip, the cars would roll over. For the Bronco, the author recommends fitting the Super Sticky tires only up front and keeping the stock rear tires to avoid that.

What you should know

You need the Road Trip: Ford DLC. It doesn’t state the game version; it was published on September 30, 2026 and updated on October 2. There’s one report of tires not showing up with another Mustang mod installed, which the author couldn’t reproduce, and another about the Crown Victoria that he fixed in an update.

Common problems

What's the difference between the two?

Super Sticky gives more grip in corners; Burnout Slicks lose traction for doing burnouts.

My Bronco keeps rolling over

The author suggests Super Sticky up front and stock tires at the rear.

I can't see the tires after choosing them

This was reported with another Mustang mod active; try without it.
