    Anyone running the Baja Boss AT in 265/70R17 with load range LT. Right now, I’m running BFGoodrich - All-Terrain T/A KO2 in 265/70R17 in C. Just seeing how you like the tire, wear and tear, rideability and traction. Thanks

    People don’t like KO2’s.
    If I got Baja Boss tomorrow it would be 35. Got Kenda instead. It is cheaper.
    I’ve heard good things about Baja Boss. It’s probably better than KO2.
    I’d have no second thoughts about quality. Only second thought was the fact it’s like $350 a tire vs $200 Kenda.

    They're very very good tires, much better than K02 especially in the wet and snow. However - keep in mind that they are a heavy tire in load e configuration. 58lbs for the Mickeys vs the 44lb load c K02's you're running currently. If you don't need the extra plies then you can go with the load XL's in the same size for only 44lbs, same as what you're running currently.

    What’s the difference between Cs and SLs, I’ve looked it up, but din’t really get a clear answer.

    So you saw that and somehow thought we needed a new thread to address "how you like the tire, wear and tear, rideability and traction"? Like a multi page discussion thread would be a bad place to find that information?

    To be completely honest, I searched this 2nd generation forum for the Mickey Thompson tire and initially I saw treads here and there, but nothing substantial. I added my post, prior to finding the mother load post, hind sight, I probably wouldn’t have posted my thread. However, I appreciate your 2 post, although unhelpful, to an unnecessary forum.
