Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/T thread

Anyone running Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/T’s? Hoping to get feedback on performance both on/off-road and longevity.

In the PNW and have been running A/T’s for a while but yearning for something more aggressive for the Tundra. Currently have Toyo Open Country AT3’s and have ran Nitto Ridge Grapplers on the Tundra. Also ran BFG KO2, Pro Comp MT, and Mickey’s MT on my Tacoma years ago. Wife’s got Falken Wildpeak A/T3W on her 4Runner and they been great!

I know tires have evolved a lot since my last set of MT’s so any feedback is appreciated.

 

I believe @reywcms is running them currently on his rig. If you take a look at the North West BS Thread you'll see he's got quite a bit of info / feedback on them recently (desert, snow and PNW conditions). If you shoot him a PM w/any specific questions, I'm sure he'd be happy to respond w/whatever feedback/input he has for you.

 

Yep! I’m here in Oregon and currently run the Baja Boss MT. I’ll tell you I won’t run another tire on my rig. They’ve been amazing in all weather conditions and offroad conditions as mentioned above. And you could say I use my rig lol I’ve been in groups with many other tires and where they’d struggle mine would act like I have lockers on and crawl up and out of anything.

 

Must be the driver

 

Lol definitely plays a factor lol

 

Thanks for the feedback, but now I want more than just tires after sifting through your build lol!

 

hahah I’m sorry

 

Anyone have an idea of what size fits 2022 1794s with AVS and no aftermarket lift??

285? 275?

 

These are very large in size so more true to size fyi

 

Translation, please. I am brain fried!

 

All mfg’s tires run differently in size for example a 35” bfg is not the same as a Mickey Thompson 35” tire. Bfg’s tend to run slightly on the small side

 

You can fit a 35x11.5x20 in tire on these trucks stock with just pinning back the inner fender

 

Are you talking gen 3 or gen 2

 

@reywcms I’m gonna ask the dumb question.. how’s the road noise/ride quality?

 

lol I run them at 30psi great wear and ride on the street. They’re an MT so they do make noise but so do my bypasses and blower. Part of the experience lol

 

Dang. Was hoping they’d ride like a C… lol I’ve been eyeing them for a while, my old STT Pro’s howled like crazy so I was curious how they were.

Oh and let me know when you’re tired of the supercharger and the noise, I’ll drive over and pick it up off your hands free of charge

 

They’re definitely quieter than other MTs I’ve heard and driven. Happy to take you for a ride so you can see

 

Definitely going to have to take you up on that. Haven’t experienced a SC’d truck yet either, that might be an expensive ride for me..

 

3rd gen, massive tire clearance- can run 37’s with a 1.75in front lift

 

I’d say not entirely true that thing would rub all over during articulation. My buddies 3rd Gen rubs all over on 35s lol

 

within reason of most folks use, in hardcore use you’ll definitely rub!

 

How hard was it to get these balance? Any input or suggestion would greatly appreciated! So, I can let the tech know in advance. Thanks!

 

No issues here on balancing mine.

 

Awesome. Thanks!

 

Following…glad to see a thread on these

 

Incase you need convincing or a visual lol you can also scroll up lol

 

Stoked!

Balanced up nicely and not as noisy as other M/T’s I’ve ran personally and rigs I’ve ridden in.

Got a little fender liner trimming to fix a slight rub with this 0 offset.

 

They’re great you’ll enjoy them.

 

Possibly re-evaluate 37s when these wear out

 

What tire pressure y’all running?
