Mickey Thompson Baja boss AT

Anyone running these?

 

Just looked them up. 265/70/r16s in P metric. Looks our stock sizes aren't available til March of 2022.

I'm real interested in them. Hopefully others have run them in different sizes or other trucks.

 

these are on my list for the next set. i currently run 285s but I'm gonna be ready for more cutting with those 305/65s next change. i believe they come in D range which should be perfect on my truck, at least.. no experience yet.

 

I'm looking at these as well

 

I was searching on their website and they offer a regular AT and then a SUV one…
Tried to spot difference between them but did not find any…

also I see that they offer oem size 265 70 r16 if I am not mistaken..

 

I believe the SUV one is the sl rated. The other is lt

 

looking at the 35/10.5R16's

 

And what about the Baja legend?

 

I think the legend is 10ply only. It's a great looking tire though

 

i am getting to understand the hole terminology of tires….would you please explain? I am looking for as close as oem load.. so I guess is standard.. but no idea of ply?

 

Sl load would be OEM, 4 ply. Lt load would e 10 ply. More puncture resistant offroad, but weight is more so it affects milage and performance

 

I like those. I think they're rebranded coopers?

 

Here's some pictures from a forum member's truck I stole for future reference. I can't recall whose exactly...

 

Those look super aggressive for AT's, looking forward to seeing what people say about them.

 

I have 40,000 miles on a set of ATZ P3. I reckon I've got another 20,000- 25,000 left on em'

I rotate every 3000 miles and I have plugged one screw hole. I know it's not what you are looking for. But ,the two are very similar.

 

These will be the ones I'm getting for my 22 Pro. MT bought out the Dick Cepek brand I believe, they use to be called the Dick Cepek Trail Country EXP.

 

Both (Cooper + MT) under Goodyear now.
Gonna consider the Baja Boss AT in a C (265/75/16) once I burn through the K02 Es. Simply for the weight savings.

 

I will do same when I wear out my oem kevlars

 

Didn't know they offered a c load. Nice

 

So not sure where to begin. My truck is a 2020 2” lift 4.88 swapped. I was running Falken AT3w 275/70r17. My area is not good for fuel mileage. Decent roads my truck could average 16-16.5 with the Falken.

Since the Standard wasn’t out yet I opted for the E 285/70r17. I thought maybe since I am gear swapped it might not be too bad. The road to work is curvy up and down. On winter fuel mix I was getting around 14-15. With the E Boss A/t at 65lbs I took more of a hit than I hoped. If I really baby it I can get 13mpg.

I shoot competitively and had a match couple hours away mostly flatter smooth back roads around 55-50. Managed 15mpg.

love the way the tire looked, the deep treads. Was a little harsh but it is an E rated tire.

I contacted MT on several occasions about the “SL”. I want a tire to do all. I’m not a hard core off road we but want it to be durable if and when I go exploring.. The M/T reps all told me the same thing. The SL is still 3 ply side wall, the overall durability of the tire wasn’t much different just the E rated is built for load.

I ordered a set and they came in today. It’s a lot different in appearance. I know they listed as 16/32 vs 18.5/32 on the E. But the side biter are no where near as aggressive, the rim lip guard, tread depth etc. I know at 48lbs be 65lbs there would be some. But the side walls do feel more flimsy vs the way the M/T rep let it was same tire just a few less ply etc. so idk.

I mounted them this evening and got 16.5 mpg coming home from the gas station which is mostly flatter road for my area.

I emailed MT and basically said I which y’all would have split the difference on the 2 for what I personally feel would be a great tire etc. I’m a no body so prob won’t have any weight but who knows. Or am I being too picky??

Pics to follow

my truck with E 285/70r17 and next time the Falken that had around 13/32 tread left.
