The ATs kill the KO2’s in performance anywhere the all seasons get weak. I will buy this tire over and over. I even bought new wheels to accommodate their recommendations.
Facts
I have 8600 km on 35” Baja Boss ATs on my JLUR and can honestly say they are freaking fantastic in deep snow, slush icey roads, rain, rock and icey rock. They haven’t spent much time on the mud, so I can’t give a good opinion just yet.
They are still very quiet.
The 12.5 wide tires are wide; more like 12.8
Ive got 10k miles on my ATs, they definitely wear faster than they claim, but they are absolutely fantastic. Ive gotten stuck once on some pretty gnarly wet rocks.
Ill take the 30k mile max life for the awesome performance and they are so quiet compared to my dads wildpeak AT3Ws.
Ive got Kumho Road Venture MT71s on my ranger, they are insanely quiet, especially for a mud terrain, they are dead silent even at 80 MPH.
Damn I needed this! I've narrowed it down to these two for my 2020 JLUR. This is a daily driver with occasional off-roading here in east Tennessee. I love the look and function ability of the MT but for our specific use and location, the AT would be the smarter choice!
just put some 265 75 r16 AT on my 2003 tacoma trd off road couldont be happier. i live at the ranch and have a home in the city so im on the highway in the dirt mud daily. these tires are unbelieveable the way they handle on and off road. very little road noise great handling, control, and stability on and off road. its also been raining daily and the control and grip on the street is impressive great confidence with this tire especially with that 3 peak.
In MN I'm running the Baja MTZ P3 flotation tires. So far they are fantastic in the snowy trails, on the highway and on the frozen lakes. I run them at 20 psi's. 35x12.5x15
I have my Mickey Thompson Baja legend exp on my truck . they are the best tire I’ve ever owned and put on any truck I’ve ever owned.
I have AT on my Jeep and i love them
I have the mt on my mud/trail rig. Great tire
Thank you for the video Josh. What's the difference between the Baja Boss MT & MTZ? I found videos comparing each of them to other tires but not against each other so i have no clue as to the difference or why you'd choose one over the other? Thank you in advance
I'm getting the AT for my Icon Rebounds going in my 2021 Toyota Sequoia
Great video and nice information to have. Are Baja Boss A/T really quiet on the highway?
Really liking this channel. Any chance you'll do a comparison between baja boss a/t and Falken wildpeak a/t3w? Those are the two I'm considering.
Looking at the same two, plus the BFG K02.
More off road, Baja Boss. More on pavement, Falkens.
Pick your poison. I think I'm getting the Baja Boss even though I drive 90% on pavement, but the Falkens look fine, too.
Love your guys videos! Hoping you do a video on the the hankook dynapro mt2s!
I'd go with all terrain tires for it saves more on gas than mud tires.
Gas prices are out of control now
Thinking about the Baja Boss ATs for my Duramax.
DO IT! We have them!
Have you done a review on the Pro Comp MT tires?
How do they the boss A/T hold up on a heavy diesel? My truck is heavy and I haul heavy with it too. i drive lotta dirt/gravel roads and occasionally getting off the beaten path.
Video I needed wish the A/ts came in 40
maybe. if theres demand which there is
You really shouldn't be deciding on an A/T or an M/T for your final choice, that part of choosing a tire should be simple: either you use your car as an off-road dedicated vehicle (ie, you only drive on road between your house, and the off-road trails/terrain), or you use your car mainly on roads, and ocassionally use it off-road (whether it be 1, 2, 3, 4 or more times a week, but you still use it to go between point a and point b on-road regularly).
M/T tires have gained a lot of popularity, and that's fair, since off-roading has risen in popularity quite a lot in the past decade, specially after the Covid-19 pandemic, and let's face it, they look quite bad-ass. But unless you use your car solely for off-roading, or don't mind switching wheels for the weekend off-road trips, you should try and stick to A/Ts, even the more aggressive hybrid X-A/T type tires, whenever possible.
A/T tires are just better for on-road use, both in comfort, safety, handling and thread life. But if you MUST get into some really gooey mud on the weekends, because you like to test your car's limits, or because you live in a very rainy/boggy region, then at least try and drive carefully when on-road, no high speeds on M/Ts!
PD: some M/Ts are really cheaper, glorified hybrid A/Ts, so in that case it's not so bad, but even then, why buy those instead of actual good-quality hybrid A/Ts?
Care to do a review of the Interco superswamper M16 ive heard they are great on road and amazing offroad, something along the lines of:
"excellent on road and gives a quiet and smooth ride at 50 psi tire pressure"
"When aired down to 35-40 psi they are awsome. Almost as good as boggers on mud, much better than irocs in mud but not as good as iroc on rock..."
Edit: I know it is not a request channel but im really interested in this tire
We will look into it! Thanks Alberto!
Can you do a review between baja boss a baja mtz p3? Pros and cons? I can't find that on any channel. Thanks in advance!
Love the idea! We will add it to our list!
i want these for my 16x8 wheel will they have a tire for it?
My exp is that all MT tires are just awful in the snow and ice at freezing temps. I'll take a AT tire over an MT in the winter every time. That said in mud and sand the MT tires do rule.
I just picked up a 2022 Tacoma. I'm looking forward to running eastern trails from Pennsylvania through Virginia, heading out into the Arkansas National Forest and all the way out to Colorado where my brother-in-law lives. Will the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT's get it done or should I be considering the MT's?
ATs should be sufficient unless you plan on going through some hardcore areas where you will need to crawl over rocks
@@TrailBuilt would you recommend LT over standard load for a tacoma? I ask since the LT in 265 75r16 are pretty heavy in comparison to the non LT tire same size(only asking cause tacomas are not too powerful to begin with and it's a daily, so not sure how bad a drop in mpg's that would be) . Also, the standards are not as aggressive on the sides and have less thread depth overall. Truck is mostly a daily with some moderate+ weekend Offroading and will see some rocky terrain here and there. Thanks.
@@erod6468go with non E rated! Go with SL!
35”x12.50”x17” kenda klever R/T’s are better than both for way less and more available
I do most of my driving on normal roads I drive a gen 3 raptor in Florida and I can’t decide between these two tires, I don’t care for tread life so I’m thinking maybe mt will be best but at the same time sense I only go off roading about 5-10 a year maybe the at will be better what do you think
I would go with the M/T's only because I would like to have that option to go off roading and possibly camping!
Can't believe they don't make the Baja Boss AT for 15" wheels.
Maybe in time they will but I definitely see what you are saying!
It’s so savage the pricing here in Australia
I got quoted 1600 aud from two seperate places for wild peaks 265/70r16
I should have bought my car a year and a half ago when prices were more reasonable
I have a question for you. I have 35 12.50 r17 MT baja boss Mts on my gladiator. 4wp tells me different stories about psi. One told me to put 38psi in them and another told me to put 30psi. The more psi I have in the tire the more the jeep steers crazy going down the highway. Which psi should I be putting in?
Varies on the type of driving you plan on doing with those tires! I would say go around 33-35. I would stay away from the higher psi if they are giving you steering issues.
@@TrailBuilt much appreciated!
How many times have you rolled over backwards?🤯
I’m placing an order for the mt’s right now. Do you have 37x12.5-17 in stock?!
Yes we do! - bit.ly/34PrgwG
@@TrailBuilt Order placed! Thank you for having them in stock!
Going with MT in load E rated only because the AT is back ordered. Still excited about them!
Best of both worlds grab some duratracs
From what I hear the Duratracs have very weak sidewalls.
Dodge 2500 Cummins 5.9 hauling dump trailers mostly in town, AT-MT? Which one ?
I would say the A/T. You mentioned that you mainly drive in towns, and the A/T would be a better choice for that!
What tires are the best for overlanding, traveling on gravel roads?
Can't give a specific tire that wins for all because there are just to many to choose from! BUT! If you would like, we released a video about, "Best Budget Tires under $1500." We go over all those categories and cover the ones we feel are the best! Check it out if you would like!
I only buy Falken or Toyo A/T, The M/Ts are to loud on the road. And here in AZ we don't have a lot of mud...
Baja boss at or the kenda klever rt?
Ooooo tough call. Where are you located?
@@TrailBuilt wyoming
I want a 265/85r17 Baja Boss AT and Baja Boss MT, 34.75x10.75, instead of the 255/85r17(Baja Boss AT) that is 9.8 inches wide or as wide as a 245mm width tire. I don't want a 35x10.50r17, because it's rated on a 8.5 inch wide wheel, making the 35×10.50r17 a 35x10.00r17. Also don't want a 35 inch tire to start out at 34.5 inches tall(like the 12.50), 34.8 to 35 inch tall tires are my goal.
The Mud Terrain doesn’t offer as many sizes.
We want 255/85r17 MT
I think these tires are awesome they are just so damn heavy
Maybe cause they have a high load capacity?
@@kotaman232 If you look at these tires in the same sizes compared to some other all terrains with the same load, they are heavier. I am sure it is due to having a bit beefier sidewall but for an underpowered tacoma it kinda sucks lol
@@parthluhar4469 Oh really? Which tires??
@@parthluhar4469 3,415 lbs @80 psi. for these baja ats
@@kotaman232 Cooper at3 xlt which isn't as aggressive. But you dont even need that much load rating for my use case
