mickey thompson tires
Does anybody know good or bad things about them. I like the look of the MTX but I don't know much about them.

I like the Baja claws too but just I also don't go off roading enough. the MTX looks agressive on the sidewall but the main tread looks like it would be a good all around tire but I just don't know.wamason wrote:I'm in love with the look of the Baja claws, but I don't do enough off roading, and the rough ride just isn't worth it to me because we use my truck as a family vehicle at times.

the baja are a good riding tire, I had a set of 39's and didnt even balance them when on my truck, my step-brother also has a set of 39x18 on his SFA 95 Tahoe, and tehy ride so good, and has put like 35k miles on them and still have alot of tread left, but he rotates them about every 3k. miles.
I dont know how well the claws are on the road, a buddy just sold a set but they were 46's and said they dig almost as good as the boggers do but didnt say if they road good on-road or not -- but now he is on a 53" military tire. but hates them - they are tall but don't dig worth a ****.
I would say try the M/T they are a really good tire - well the baja's are and are great on-road
