Baja boss At vs toyo at3 ? Which one focusing on wet/snow and noise
Bought a set of the Baja Boss about 3 months ago and have run about 4,500 miles on them. We haven't had snow yet, so there no report on snow. I took a trip to Jarbidge, Nevada, the most isolated town in the contiguous 48 states 2 weeks ago bouncing down 20 miles of dirt road. The dirt roads are graded so no slop or rock crawling. No slippage. Just secure, and solid even driving up a steep dirt road in a 6.7 dieesel 4x4 pick up. Most driving is on hard pack concrefe so far. Theyre quiet and secure. During a downpour they didnt lift or hydroplane, but kept me planted on tbe road.
I’m a major BFG KO2 fan, been running them for years. Still am, but these are the first tire I’ve seen that will probably make me try out a set.
Use to be a ko2 fan too but after trying these tires I was amaze how good these tires are great in ever terrain
The ko2 week point was mud
I still have about 75 percent tread left after 25000 miles on them
You gotta have a set
That's one of the big selling points for me for these - tread life. I have the MT ATZ P3 on my jeep, 30,000 miles on them and look almost brand new with a ton of hard use.. Getting these Boss ATs on my truck this week in hopes of the same performance and tread life. :)
@@fangyang4945 that’s awesome. I have a 2500 gasser. Did you notice any change in fuel economy? Not looking to lose a lot, but these tires look awesome
sidewall is ass
I’ve had both & Micky T’z knock them out the park KO2’s are like racing slicks in the wet. No comparison go Micky T you want go back
I put a set of the MT Boss AT on my 2021 Ram 3500 dually, size 255/85/17. Was a bit nervous as I did not want noise, or rubbing. Completely impressed so far. Quiet, ride smooth, no rubbing, great in heavy rain. I have made two different trips pulling just under 20,000#s, handled it excellent. Waiting for snow and ice test, but feel confident. Will see how they hold up mileage wise, have 2000 on them already. Wearing great so far. Previous tires on my trucks, BFG KO2 (good), GY Duratrac( very good), Cooper st max (terrible). I live in NE Ohio and travel to Michigan, NY, and Canada, so I experience a wide variety of conditions.
How are they holding u up know
Any way to see some pics on your dually??
Just bought the same size and tire I hope I have the same luck as you with these. Would also love to see some pictures please
@@michaeleadams1 can we see any pic of them on your truck ?
@@alexandergarcia1440 sure how do I post pics here?
This tire also available with very rare size of 255/85R17, 34.6" diameter advertise by Mickey Thompson Tire, basically the only 35" hybrid pizza cutter(tire) on the market!
i got 34.1
Ordering that exact one for my Gladiator. Exactly what I was looking for
This is the exact size I'm going to get for my F250. I had 35/12.5/17's. They were pretty good, but I like the way my truck handles with a 10" wide tire much better
Ive used multiple brands, My heavily kitted out 2.8t Lcruiser 100 series @ half a million kms & towing a 2.3t caravan. I've done close to 70,000kms on these mickeys, If longevity, good traction and a quiet ride is your game, I highly recommend this tyre bar none!
I'm here because of the comment section of a K02 comparison video comparing 10 other tires to the K02 and this wasn't in the 10 listed. In doing much research I think these Mickey Thompson's or possibly Nitto Ridge Grapplers will be the way to go for me. I like these better so far than the Nitto's.
I just bought these tires and Holy shiet, they look mean but handle excellent and very quiet
How are they 2 years in? I just bought some and you are 100 percent correct. I can’t believe how smooth and quiet they are
I just put a set of these on my 2020 F150. I had the Mickey Thompson ATZ p3 with 45k on them.. The ATZ were noisy and rode really stiff. The new Baja Boss's are fucking amazing. They're smoother and softer ride, and no more hum, they're super quiet for the AT look they have . 100% buy them if you're looking for new tires.. Im running 305/55/20
How do they do in wet rainy conditions? Considering these, the nitto recon and ridge grappler and the toyo at3
I have the ATZ p3 on my truck currently at 33,000. 35 inch. They make some noise turning/slow speed only. Love the wear so far. Can not wait to try these new tires out. They have a lot more sipping than the atz do.
I'm running Wildpeak AT3W's. I have no complaints, But I think I may give these a try. I want something a little more aggressive.
Have had these on our 4Runner since they hit the market. Fantastic tires on and off road. Makes me a full believer in M/T where as I never considered them in the running for a tire purchase before.
This Friday, I will be a proud owner of a 4th Gen 4R with these tires after running general grabber ATs. Can't wait. How have the tires been for your 4R?
Did you get the XL or E rated?
Replaced my Toyo RT with these tires and i love them
That's why I'm here, about to replace my rt's as well!
Debating between the Toyo RTs and these Baja Boss’. How happy are you with these Mickeys vs the RTs?
Just got a set of 35s for my 21 f150 BDS 4inch. Had to replace to the KO2s because they wouldn't balance. Only 500 km on the Baja A/Ts so far but they seem awesome so far and they are super nice on road and less noise then the duratrac.
I asked the installers at Discount Tire here how they liked the BFG KO's "Good tires but they have heavy spots." Haha.
They’re also 3PMSF rated and the siping looks promising for wet traction
I will volunteer to run a set for testing. I like the looks of them.
Did you ever get them?
Love to see a comparison with toyo at3. The Toyo’s are very similar with large lug voids. We went with the toyo due to 3970lbs load rating on the 35x18x12.5’s and snow rated. We have off road one to. work trucks that tow heavy. So, one set of tires for year round off road work trucks? We don’t care what they cost, we make a living on them.
I went through 5 sets of Toyo AT on my trucks. Loved them!! On my Jeep discovered quickly the difference in the weight of vehicles. E range tire even aired down still pretty harsh for Jeeps.
Been running these on my 2011 Tacoma for about a month, really happy so far
I just put these on my Ram 1500 (2021) 27550r20. First impressions: They look awesome. There might be some road noise but it's honestly hardly noticeable. They are really quiet.
Good to hear!! Do you have aftermarket or stock wheels on them?
Looking to put these on my 2023 RAM Longhorn, I've got four corner suspension and off road options. Do you think I could put a larger tire on? Also, do you have any pics you could post?
Very Bold Hybid Design! One Tire, All Terrain's, All Year! Just Awesome! _ Not 'Caged' But
'Full Exit Sipe Design' Advanced Tread Progression, Finally!
Thank You Mickey Thopmson!👍
Considering these tires,, so I'm very interested in the real world test and comparison to AT3W and other hybrid, AT.
At3w is ok I wanna see how they compare to the new toyo at3
Those and not I'm the same ballpark as at3w or at3 . These are basically a hybrid tire even tho they are saying it's a at . These will be way noisier, and a better off-road tire
I can feel the KO2 fan boys angry typing comments now.
😂😂😂
The boss out do KO2.i have these boss on my 2019 wk2 limited x with 2.5 lift, running stock boss wow!!!! Bad ass on rain no sliding or skipping zip in and out on freeway. Best tire I have own!!!!!
Your presentations are excellent!! Thank you for doing these. I'm new to the GX470 community and these really are informative and assisting in my future updates to the vehicle.
I just added New M/T AT's replacing my older BFG KO2's to my 2021 Z71 LTZ Silverado (4 inch lift) on Friday 35x12.50 on 20 inches wheels. So far great tires, they are quieter than my KO's, ride smoother too. They look great too.
How did you fit 35x12.5x20 on your Silverado with only a 4” lift? Did it involve a lot of cutting? My dad has a ‘20 High Country with a 3.5” lift and it rubs a little with 295/60r20s (33.9x11.6x20)…
Sounds like a killer truck man
Freaking LOVE these on my wrangler.. nice to see that not only do they Look bad ass , but perform well too! And def quiet on the highway… 🤘🏻
Cannot go wrong with them! Always love to hear positive feedback from the people who are running the tires.
They look awesome. Would love to see a snow test
Same!
I have had a set on my 95 jeep grand Cherokee over a year very happy with them very grippy been in some mud and snow.
I was pretty upset that the ATZ P3 was going away. I actually run them on two work trucks that see heavy city use. They hold very well and wear great. Easily get the same mileage out of them that I do the BFG AT (you just have to Rotate them), and they look and feel so much more aggressive. Its almost like these are an AT with the optical illusion of a MT.
But these are incredible looking. I’m excited to buy a set!
I'm in exactly the same boat. Love my old Mickey Thompson BAJA ATZp3...sad to learn they are discontinued. Have always gone with BFG T/A KOs and T/A KO2s.... Have those on my Suburban and 4x4 Tacoma. My Pre-Runner has the ATZ P3s and they look perfect...and now I find out I can't replace them Booooooo
Will you do a comparison with the KO twos on these?
I'm waiting on mine to show up so i can mount em on my JK!! Bumped up from a Mastercraft Courser MXT 35" to these in a 37", and I'm stoked! After my regear, truss, sleeves, and new shocks, i can't wait to see how these perform on the trails at Uwharrie
What a beautiful-looking tire.. Mickey Thompson has a $100 gift card if you purchase now til May 15th.. Might have to order and just wait til my tires go bad..
Let us know when you want to place that order! 💯
How are they in the snow, that is what matters the most to me at this point. I've been considering the falken wild peak AT3'S, and I've always been pretty happy with the ko2's over the years. Are these worth a shot?
Now that is tough haha, The Wild Peaks are a great tire in the snow but so are the Baja Boss tires! Might be personal preference from the price and or the warranty stand point! MT has a 50K milage warranty and Falken has a 55K milage warranty. If I had to choose I would pick the Wild Peaks though!
These look great. I’m hoping they will filter their way to Australia very soon.
Lot of great reviews of these tires in the past few months. My try next time I buy.
Now its a toss up for Cooper Discoverer stt pro, Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ, or drop down to A/T with the Baja Boss.. Good problem to have I guess.
I totally agree! Not sure which one to go with..... Reply which route you go🙌
What'd you go with??
Id like see a comparison of all the hybrids. Toyo RT, Nitto Ridge Grappler, and I have the Yokohama X-ATs..been awesome, very pleased but these Micky Thompson look good as well.
I have a set of Nitto off-road tires on my truck. I am thinking about these Mickey Thompsons.
I’m on my second set of Nitto tires in 45000 miles. I’m currently running a ridge grappler. I do not suggest this tire. It holds rocks really bad and it’s frustrating coming off the trail and getting to highway speeds hearing these rocks release. It sounds like someone shooting my truck. Nitto tires also wear WAY too fast. I only got 17000 miles out of the trail grappler M/Ts which have a 38/32 depth new. It was a loud tire that constantly needed balancing.
Always have to qualify “best” with these more hybrid type tires. Some better in mud, some sand, some rock, some snow, some ice, etc. All depends on which terrain types you need the best performance in and where you don’t mind compromising.
it's a bs sponsored video
I’m so excited to get some 255/85R17’s!
Just put a set on my 84 cj.love these tires.look and handle great.minimal road noise
these looked promising but the equivalent size I was looking for in the Toyo AT3s were so much lighter! Ran the MTZs in the past and they were fantastic tires
I ran Toyo AT3's on my Tacoma 2 times and BF Goodrich KO2's once. Your right!! both are great tires 👍
The weight of the AT3s are great but they just look so plain.
Damn, I've been debating over bfg ko2, grabber atx, toyo at3, falken at3w...
Now I have to add these to the list. Are they really better? They definitely LOOK more aggressive
Well you can knock the Ko2 off that list
@@jiggyfishing5890 why no ko2?
Seems they are the "standard" everything is compared to
You don't actually want to throw snow out of a tire if you are driving on snow unless there is a thin layer of snow on top of mud or dirt that you are trying to dig to. That's why mud tires generally aren't good on snow, that and they often don't come in compounds that are still soft under 45 degrees F and instead turn into hockey pucks.
Good to know. 👌
True for most on road situations, but if you're in deep untouched snow you won't want snow filled tires.
@@Llama052 In deep snow mud terrains will just bury you to your frame, unless, like I said, you can dig to dirt and without burying to your frame. You want to stay on top of snow in deep snow unless you have tires that are tall and skinny enough. Snow filled tires grip snow, that's why snow tires work. When you roll a snowball across snow, it sticks to snow and grabs it. That's how snowmen are able to be made. Now if you have mud tires that are closer to paddle tires then its a different story.
@@schmojo33 That's not entirely true, at least in PNW snow.. certain snow conditions will cause your A/Ts to turn into slicks and be unable to dig, you'll just be creating ice. You'll want lugs to get leverage or else you're stuck. It's a big reason why a lot of the snow running groups here run M/Ts on their dedicated rigs.
@@Llama052 I run in Minnesota. Lugs just dig in and bury you, unless the snow isn't deep and you can grab the ground underneath, and then your tires have to climb a wall of snow while your frame drags. I laugh when I drive by the guy with MTs while on my Wildpeaks before I get out and help but hey run what works for you. When it's really cold and the snow doesn't even want to stick then lugs can do more good than harm.
One of the most good tire ever!
I just got a set of these in 35s for my wife's jeep !!
How does she like them? And how do they look on her Jeep?
Do they run true to size when mounted? So many brands run small…
Stuck between these and the nitto ridge grappler or the toyo open country at3 for my 2012 dodge ram 1500 5.7L
I'll be happy when they come out with a 285 70 17.
It’s available
Wonder how it compares to the falken wildpeak at3w?
First thing I thought.
Just ordered a set for my Jeep Wrangler to replace my Deegans 38s that no one had. I love my Deegans so I’m really hoping this review is true to word!! I also hope they look just as aggressive as my Deegans 🤞🏻
Excited for you! We need to see what they look like installed once you get them.
Need this tire compared to the new Cooper hybrid!
We’ll do a video on those!
Cooper has a new hybrid?
Might be very close,since cooper makes mickey Thompson tires... I have my first set of mickey Thompson tires and like them so far, wish they had more siping though. I can feel them not gripping on slightly wet and even dry pavement. I have atzp3's. Just under 2000.00 miles so far. Do like this tire also. I would of considered this tire when I was shopping.
I just went with the Cooper Tires Discoverer At3 XLTs for my 2012 Toyota Tundra Crewmax
How are those?
@@gutz6681 haven't given them the off-road test yet but on road manners are great. A little squirmy because of 1/2" tread depth but that's more rubber for us to burn off if you ask me. Great in rain. No snow tests yet.
Okay
All Mickey Thompson Tires are Expensive Tires but definitely worth the money...you get what you pay for !
Definitely worth it! 😎🤘🏼
These are going on my Jeep right now.
HOW DO YOU LIKE THEM SO FAR?
Good lookin tire! 👀 Maybe a Kenda Klever replacement?
@zach hmmm Sounds like a comparison video might be needed?! 😎🤘🏼
No, it needs to face off against the new cooper rugged trek!!!
Tire shopping, 36K on Milestar Pat MTs now. I get off road in my daily driver Jeep WK only a few times a year. I was considering the MikeyT Boss Mt, now including these ATs. The Milestars are Ok and about a third less $, but I like that Mikeys are Made In USA! Any comments or suggestions welcome.
Can't go wrong with the new Mickey Thompson A/T's!
I put 33" MT Baja Boss M/Ts on my Jeep back in Nov. '20 and I'll tell anyone that these tires are UnfreakN believably great tires!!!! I can roll on freeway at 75 and it is still low noise level coming from a M/T tire; is as quiet as most any A/T tire I've heard and Quieter than some A/T tires I've had/heard! And they do the job off road fantastically!!!!!! I was hoping that MT would launch an A/T version Baja Boss and now they have!! Future tires for our future Bronco here we come! MT needs to stick with these BOSS versions because once the word gets out enough they are going to be a tire you see a lot of!!!
Milestars are dog shit
That is a good looking tire! Wonder how it will wear?
Like too see how they float in sand on 3/4 ton
Man! I love the looks of those! These and the new Nitto Recon Grapplers 🔥
I want to see a comparison to these tires with nitto ridge grapplers!
I'm actually switching from Nitto Ridge's to something else. Seems that their quality control went out the window and you're paying for just the name. I've had 2 separate Nitto's in the last year that have internally separated and buldged, even with proper maintenance. After talking to others that have the same tires and even some with Terra Grapplers are having the same issue. I used to love Nitto's, but they're shit anymore.
I have a 2012 Dodge Ram1500 5.7L and I'm thinking of these or some Pirelli Scorpion all terrain plus tires
Ya. But how are they in snow and 🧊?
I prefer the Hankook Dynapro MT2's. They work in snow , mud, and sand with minimal road noise .
You’ve ran these?
@@Icutmetal Yes have them on my Jeep.
I just got a set of these from you guys with a package deal on 16" wheels and 32" I put them on my cherokee and they handle great especially in the snow and a good ride but they are definitely louder and vibrate a little more than I was hoping for after reading all the reviews on them. They seem to have come from you guys pretty pumped up could that be because they are over inflated? Don't get me wrong they are awesome tires but closer to a mud tire noise wise than a road tire that's for sure.
Glad you like them! If you feel like they are over-inflated, let a little air out and see if that makes a difference for you. Let us know!
Isn't in kind of important to mention the number of tread and sidewall plys when reviewing an offroad tire? I don't like 2 ply sidewall tires, they puncture way too easy. I did some looking around and it seems like the load rated F tire has 12 tread plys and 8 sidewall plys. That's excellent compared to most tires. My 2021 Jeep Rubicon came with Falken WildPeak tires that look cool but they only have 6 tread plys and 2 sidewall plys. Those won't last long on a forest service road with a few sticks laying around.
Thanks for the insight! We will start adding those numbers!
Man I miss the P3’s 😭
Just ordered some 35s and a set of 22 rims for my Jeep Hard Rock Edition. They look mean!
Great presentation and very informative.
Glad you liked it!
I’ve ran the Nitto grapplers they did really well, the ko2s did not last at all not a fan for a heavy diesel. I just ordered these tires and I hope they last longer than the KO2s. They have a higher load rating than the Firestone mud terrains so i hope these last a good bit longer.
Let me know how they do! Thinking about getting these soon for my Cummins. Will be using them as dailys during the week (with occasional snow driving) and trails on weekends
I’m debating on these or the nitto ridge grapplers which ones did you like more?!
I’ve gone through 2 sets of Ridge Grapplers on my 3500 Cummins. I only get 40,000 off these tires. How are the Mickey Thompson’s holding up?
I’d really like to know where all the tires are made that you review. Thanks.
I see a lot of good comments on this tire. But I was wondering how well They balance any problems with vibration ?
Nice tyre and love to buy them, but they are not available in Europe unfortunately (no EU rating).....
Is there any chance you will do an updated video on how this tire performs in the snow?
Definitely something I can suggest to the guys for future videos!
Thanks for the video, considering the 285/70R/17 C load 116T versions, for occasional light off-roading bad roads. What do you think? 80% Daily drive but GF works in real-estate, and we hit roads and mountain properties 2-3 times month.
Not a bad setup for what you will be using it for!
Nice! Hopefully, MT will add some more sizes for their tires. They have a very small selection of sizes.
We sure hope so!
Yeah I was trying to decide between these and the at3w, they don’t have the size I need so it’s a no go anyway
Hi man! Which tire in your experience is more suited or a little better for on road handling? The Baja at or these (Baja legend)?
As you stated on your video, I daily drive my Tacoma so would want the best of these two on road .
Thanks for the help!
Hey Claudio! We don’t currently have driving experience with the new Legend but with the Baja Boss A/T we do - and they are fantastic!
Hmmmm...might be my next set in the future. I'm running the cooper rugged trek rtn and I love it.
Cooper owns mt, so they might be very similar for you. I love my atzp3 so far with 33,000 on them. These new ones might be my next new tire for sure..
Nice vids 💪👍 but cud u some day look at Nokia Outpost AT tyres? 🙂
Love to have a set. Not easy to find her in Europe, Scandinavia/ Sweden. And very very expensive.
These vs Toyo OC AT3, which are better?
Would you recommend these for everyday driver and pulling a travel trailer?
Well I hope they're cool because I bought 4 yesterday before watching any videos on them.
Nice looking tire. Will consider these for my 2500HD
Did you end up getting them?
@@harrisonfowler4461 I went with a Yokohama XAT. Based on price and availability at the time.
Wonder if they wear out prematurely like all there other tyres
Good video guys. Does this tire have the “3peak snow rating “?
I noticed on your website that the p-metric sizes have a 60,000 mile warranty and the LT sizes have a 50,000 mile warranty.
How quiet? Iike the aggressive look but highway travel I.need a soft quiet ride in travel......
Wow amazing cool and informative video. for my Wrangler II TJ 1998 no lift stock ima looking for these tires with size of 265/60 R18 and rims of 18x9 -12mm ? rims are Mayhem Rampage but mostly for on road that is why I like these tires. Do you think they would be ok? Thanks a guy from Europe admiring you all!!!
I’ve been running the BFG KO2s in 235/75R15 on my 21 Crosstrek for almost 45,000 miles. They have been amazing for my use about 35% off-road and snow 65% on road and dry. But I’m really thinking. about changing to the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT.
Glad to hear that! Those Baja Boss AT's are a nice tire as well, just make sure to do plenty of research before you make the switch!
Can't get the Baja Boss in my Truck's size. How similar is the Baja ATZP3?
So these or the nitto ridge grapplers
Tread wear warranty? Some AT tires have up to 65K while most have 50K. For this money I will guess higher.
275/60R20. Toyo Open County A/T III or the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T ?
Do these have them with a white letter
Picking my set up tomorrow
I see you this are 35's, what are the actual measurements of this tires. Do they run true to size or closer to 34 7/8's or 34.5?? Thanks bro and good job!
Just measured the set that we have and they are true to size being a 35 x 12.50
@@TrailBuilt thanks you, good to know, much appreciated. Again, keep up the great work.
I know nothing about tires and need some help. I am buying a used lifted truck with 37x12.5xr20 toyo open country M/T tires. They are pretty worn and they were Super loud and I could feel the tires while.drivi.g the whole time. I really like the look and stance so I'd like to stay at same size or close but no idea what tire to choose. I drive 99.9% on regular roads/highway. The .01% will be gravel and dirt roads. I will Never go offroad...
BFG K02 or Nitto Ridge Grappler would be some decent choices!
For a Tacoma would u buy the Baja Boss A/T or the Falken WildPeak at3w?
Yes a toyo RT vid👍👍
What can you say about SL vs E1 rated tires? Most reviews of the Baja Boss AT focus on E1 tires, which are a drastic overkill for people who do not do heavy duty offroading.
That is a good Question. We might have to make a video breaking that down a bit.
But to address your question quickly, most people are jumping to the e rated to have a stronger sidewall to help resist punctures better.
I’m a Mickey Thompson junkie. Last five sets were all ATZ even before the P3. Don’t plan on breaking this habit.
#loyalty!! Me too man
I am trying to decide between these or a the Nitto Ridge Grappler for the 2012 Ram 2500 with a 5 inch lift. Any opinions? Also, which size do think is best? I have 295s on there now but, I'm thinking about the 35s. What do you think? Thanks
Hey Mickey! Both are awesome tires with a lot of upside. Shoot me an email and I can set you up through TB!

Bfg ko2 are horrible in the rain
