Performance tyres are the ones typically used in sports and racing cars. These (performance) tyres facilitate high to very high-speed traction on both wet and dry surfaces.
In India, tyre manufacturers also produce special varieties, including all-terrain tyres and performance tyres.
All-terrain tyres are generally for four-wheel-drive vehicles for off-road and on-road applications. Driving under extreme conditions like snow or mud is possible with all-terrain tyres. Tractors, too, use all-terrain tyres.
