2021 Chevy Silverado
As you see in images, the new Realtree Special Edition is coming for 2021. The truck gets a unique look inside and out. It includes new 20-inch wheels that are wrapped in new Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT tires. The new Territory lineup of tires has recently been introduced on the 2021 Ford Bronco and 2021 Ram TRX. Yes, each tire has unique challenges, requirements, and construction – but the tread design is mostly shared.
