New Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T

35/12.50/17 load range D
Talk me into it

 

Looks interesting but curious why they decided to make them in 255/85r17 but not a 285/70r17

 

Or why did they decide on a 295/70/17 vs 285/75/17? I know I am splitting hairs hear. This is the front runner for me as of now.

 

I wish more companies would make a 35/11.50/17

 

Read comments on Facebook from MT. The second set of sizes are coming in August. Don’t know what sizes.

 

Unfortunately I don’t have facebook.. I’ll use the wife’s

 

These look really interesting, the 255/85R17 might be a nice alternative to the Kenda Klever RTs in 35x10.5 for people who want a skinny 35(ish). 63lbs is still pretty heavy though.

 

Looking into these tires too! Do u know if a 315/70/17 is the same size? And if u knew what is the difference between load range D or E wondering what would be better?

 

Yeah Mickey Thompsons lists it as the equivalent size to a 35x12.5r17. Though looks like it truly measures out to a 34.5. D load is plenty fine for a Tacoma. E load would ride really rough. Like really rough.
What's kind of weird is that D load is heavier than the E by 1 pound.
