NITTO GONE…. MICKEY THOMPSON ON
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2021
- Nitto 285/60/20 had severe vibration and nobody would make it right- *purchased from a local tire shop*. The owner said “I can’t take a loss on them.” Contacted Nitto and they wanted the inspection done and for the dealer to say they were bad. We found out per the tire dealer they would only replace 1 of the 4, the warranty sucks!! Everyone should go to Nittos website and read the warranty “before” purchasing and talk it over with your tire dealer to see if they will stand behind the tires. SOLD those and upgraded to Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T 295/60/20! Super aggressive looking tires! Considered a hybrid launched this year 2021. Rides like a car tire and super quite. “Very” close to UCA…BUT doesn’t touch. Put 0.25” spacers on but took them off due to tire rub on inner fender. Everything is good now and no more rub after re-alignment. Mud flap delete - sharp truck.com!

Just installed a set of Mickeys Baja Boss AT this morning. In the whole 15 miles I drove to lunch and back home, they were quiet. Of course any new set of tires will be quiet, even cheap ass Chinese made garbage. I'm sure they will be wonderful. Paid for road force balanced and I had new Bilstein shocks installed 3 weeks ago. I'm good for whatever bad weather comes to southern Idaho.
This is exactly the kind of experience my buddy had with his Nitto RG's. I can't wait until the new Baja Boss AT's are available in more 17" sizes.
I replaced my dry-rotted Goodyear Wranglers on my 2018 Silverado with the Mickey Thompson’s. So happy with my choice. Surprisingly quiet, nice ride and handling, good beefy tire. Hope you like them!
I have trail grapplers and ran ridge grapplers and love the tires, rotated every oil change and never got louder up to 45,000 miles before I bought new ones
For anyone who wants this info we forgot to include in the description:
295/60/20 = 11.6 width/34.3 height/tread depth 18.5 Mickey Thompson
285/60/20 = 11.5 width/33.7 height/tread depth 18.9 Nitto Trail Grapplers-take offs
***all specs come from each manufacturer’s website
Love Mickey Thompson tires. Had the ATZ P3 and loved those. These new boss at are fitting the bill with what I want and reviews look great.
Yeah man we haven’t had any issues out of ours! They ride like a car tire.
I like your style straight forward to hell with what everyone thinks 👍👍building my jeep and I don't a give a damn what anyone say. Keep up the good work.
We appreciate you man!
I quit Nittos. Running BF Goodrich Mud/ Snow on my 1984 square body 35x12.50's. Work great on that truck. Running 34x11.50 Mickey Thompson per your video on my 2021 Silverado Trailboss LT with Zone 1.5" level kit and 3" wheel spacers. Took brackets off behind wheel well curtains.
Doesn't rub anywhere anytime.
Ride,sound level and performance is excellent on 2021 with the M.T.'s
The more I see ppl with these Baja Boss tires, the more I want them. I'm trying to decide now what set I'm putting on my 17 Ram 1500 next
I love Mickey Thompson, always have a good experience with them! I'll be getting these soon on my truck. I've ran the Baja ATZ P3's since about 2012-13. Glad they finally have something to direct compete with the Ridge Grapplers that I will not run on my truck as I've had the same poor experiences with Nitto in the past.
I messed up and swapped my wife’s tires out on her Lincoln Corsair for nittos and boy was that a mistake!! The quality has fell off on nitto. They had vibration issues also. It may be my local dealer buying from one source, idk. I had to take those off of her vehicle also. Pretty bad when a plain touring tire has vibration problems too. Man I love the Baja Boss so far!!
@@southernchampiongarage Oh no! Glad to hear the bosses are treating you good. Looking forward to getting mine. Like someone else mentioned, Mickey's are made by Cooper and IMO they have a lot more going for them than Nitto in both the half-ton and heavy-duty sections. Nitto is selling lots because their marketing is better and it's achieved a communal mentality. Everyone hears about everyone else getting them so naturally everyone assumes they are good and the cycle continues.
Best part of the video was the intro, thanks for the review and info Nitto is out of the shopping list for me.
I appreciate it man! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Cool truck , it looks real nice 👍 !! I put the 315/60/20 Toyo open country M/Ts on my 2020 Denali 1500. love the tires they ride great.
Toyo is a really good brand. We have had a couple of sets in the past and always have had good luck with them. That’s what’s on the k10 but there are only 25% life left in them and they ride better than the nittos we had.
Bought mine today 35x12.5x22 for my 2016 Denali 2500. Can’t wait to instal them
Let me know how they ride!! Always like seeing how they perform for others. Sounds like a nice setup you got too!!
I ride 37" Mickey Thompson Baja Boss M/T's on my Gladiator. Damn Good Tire, but I'm switching to the A/T here shortly. (80K on my M/T's... )
I bought new Mickey Thompson's Baja Boss. 275x70Rx18AT. I like them.
BUT I lost 2 mpg... thats the only bad part.. my truck is 2020 F150 crewcab FX4 with a factory 2inch lift
Love the statement! Maintain your frame!
Thanks bro!
I have elevation lifted like at4 2 inch and put the tire size 285 60 20 like you but no rubbing, tire is from bf good all terrain very smooth on riding.
If they would come out in 16" I would definitely try them. I heard good things about this tire.
Yea we haven’t had any issues out of ours at all! Maybe you can eventually get you a set!
Did you remove the metal bracket that the OEM mud flap bolts onto?
Great review.I have the Nitto Ridge Grablers in my 2003 Dodge Dakota. They are quite being good so far want try the Baja Boss. Now the Nitto Ridge Grablers on my 2005 F-150 do vibrate I can feel it on the steering wheel since new.
Just got my set of the newer Recon Grapplers, ran Mickey Thompsons on my last truck. Hopefully I don’t run into any issues.
Having the same issues with my nitto grappler and thurs having the baja boss at installed this Thurs
looks great man! thinking of doing the same tire on my 21 At4 with factory 18's. probably a 295/60/18 or so
Looks like you have a leveling kit but not sure and if so is it a 2 or 3.5 inch?
I have 35k miles on these tires. 275/55r20 10 ply.
They are heavier then any other 10 ply I've ran.
Pick up rocks down the driveway a pretty ridiculous amount compared to my toyo at3s. Was difficult to balance. Syping is missing on a few tread blocks on all 4 and they get significantly smaller as they wear so theyll get worse traction as they wear. Worn down 2/32s and starting to get loud.
However they have been doing very well on treadlife life. For 35k miles and dropping to 16/32 from 18/32 I'm very impressed on that part. Great looking tire.
Not sure I just got a bad set on the syping or that's just how they're made.
Thinking about trying out cooper rugged treks, general grabber atx, falken wildpeak at3w, or predator new mutant x-at next.
General Tire M/S Grabbers are great tires as well.
@Souther Champion Garage im trying to do 285/60 R20 toyo tires on my 2021 Gmc sierra 1500 Duramax its a 3.0. You think its a good idea doing a level kit? 🤔
I like the intro. Speaking truth
Appreciate it bro 💪🏼🤘🏼 thanks for watching!
How do you like these in comparison to a Nitto Ridge Grappler?
Thanks for sharing your experiences. Trying to decide between Nitto Recon Grappler vs MT Baja Legend EXP. Very hard to pick one.
Legend is the way to go after 15 years of nito I’m done with them. Sticking with Thompson from now on. They’re making better tires every year and longer lasting. IMO
do you have a lift kit or levelling kit on the truck?
what did you paint your rims with,i like them
Where did you get your mud flap delete from ?
Truck looks awesome sir ! I have the same elevation model. Could you post a video of a walk around with these tires ? Thanks
Thanks! We will have a video of them this weekend!
What is the main difference between these and the Baja Legend EXP?
I’m trying to decide between Toyo at3 and Mickey Thompson Baja boss a/t for my f250. Glad to hear the bosses are good. Leaning more towards Mickey Thompsons tbh
What kinda milage you getting with that set up?
That c10 is sick!
Appreciate it bro!
You just sold me!! I have an AT4 in white. definitely getting these tires.
Let us know how they are!!
Yea man they have 5k miles and ride as good as day one and look awesome!!
did u get these tires? what size? thinking of doing on my at4 with 18"factory
It's crazy how different the sierra is from the silverado.. I have a 21 silverado with a 2" level. And I run 35x12.50r20 with absolutely no scrubbing... Except for in reverse for some reason..
ALSO, Mickey Thompson tires are manufactured right here in the USA. That's right, USA made. Can't say the same for Nitto.
Ridge Grapplers and trail grapplers are made in white Georgia. They are even stamped made in the USA on the sidewall
Hey bud is the truck lifted I got a 2019 Chevy RST need new tires going back and forth on lifting or leveling
Hey brother 🤙🏽 it just has a level on it!
Picking the Mickey Thompson Baja boss at”s 35x12.50R20 tomorrow for my 21 Ram
Sounds awesome dude! Let us know how you like them!
How do you like them? Just bought another set for another truck we are about to put on the channel.
@@joshj9441 love them! Hard to balance but one of the best
Nitto separated at 30k , went back to MT
Did you remove the .25” or leave them on? I thought you said you removed them but I wasn’t sure. It looks so good filling the wheel wells!
Yes, I did end up removing them due to rubbing issues on the inner fenders. They cleared the UCAs enough to get by without the spacers, which fixed the rubbing issues. Yea it looks pretty good with the wheel well filled. We got about 3k miles on them now and they still ride like my wife’s car!
This is the 3rd video i seen about nittos so i might go MT myself.
Do yourself a favor and steer clear of the nittos. I just had a set I'm replacing with the baja bosses this week. The nittos developed severe dry rot cracks in all the tread channels. Tires were slowly losing air pressure and are completely toast after less than 30k miles. Tires were rotated every scheduled oil change.
Great video, those tires look sharp. I put 22" rims with 305/40R22 on my 2021 elevation. They look cool, but these ones are making me want to put back the stock black 20" rims with these Mickey Thompson. I'm having issues with the sound of my laptop. But did you say that you had to trim the rear fender plastic molding because the wheel was clashing?
Yes! We put a bumper delete on the front to help!
@@southernchampiongarage Sorry, what do you mean by a bumper delete? can you post a link with the bumper delete you purchased? I see you removed the stock mud guards that come with the Elevation. I have a Elevation 4WD X31 quad cab, 6 foot bed. Also what kind of lift kit did you use? Did you have to add longer shocks?
Great honest review we need more honesty not bullshit ✌️ I was going to buy the 33x12:50x22 for my gmc 1500 Denali stock not sure if they will rub Was thinking maybe one inch spacers but that might make it worse What you think will they fit ✌️✌️🇨🇦🇨🇦
Appreciate it!! To be honest on a stock setup you most likely will need a 33x11:50x22 to be safe. That’s what I would do if I was in your shoes. To be honest I wish I had went with the 285/55/20 which is 11:50 width. You never know when you may be on the interstate or something and have to go across the median. No since of worrying about scrubbing. The spacers will most likely still have scrubbing about an inch in from the inside rear front fender.
Just ordered MT 275-70-18 Baja Legend Exp, hoping these will be good on the road pulling a travel trailer and minor off road / inclement weather, trying to get best of both worlds. 10 ply, E rated 100MPH tire. Fingers crossed.
did you install them yet? thinking of doing that same size for my 21 At4
@@Livin_Easy yes they are installed now. Nice looking and so far, performance is great
@@coldfire2812 any rubbing or any issues? I'm considering those or the Nitto Recon. What vehicle did you put them on
@@Livin_Easy No sir not at all, Now I did put a 1-1/2" leveling kit on the front and back bud. Those Nittos will look bad dude. Go for it!
@@coldfire2812 have you had any issues with the lift and 4 wheel drive? I've read alot of people saying issues in 4 Hi or 4 WD Auto..
Do you have a lift on your truck?
It sucks when company’s or shops don’t come thru and you gotta bite the bullet and loose all that money and still spend more
I have a Chevy trail boss was thinking about going with the same tire in a 295 55r20 now I'm thinking it would be too wide. The site says they are 33.2 by 12 wide now I may change my mind.
Yea each brand has their own specs so definitely read those for whatever brand you go with. All my buddies say 11.5 wide is max without spacers. The trail boss has more fender room than the GMC. Your UCAs would be the only concern but a 0.25 spacer would probably work on a stock wheel.
The Chevy’s seem to fit a hair larger tires but like he mentioned the UCA’s will be your main problem.
How is the sound level burning up the interstate at 85 mph?
It is like a car tire it is very quiet.
I know this video is about the tire but I gotta say I love the square body next to it! What size lift and tires on that?
I appreciate it bro!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼 it’s a 6inch lift on 35’s
@@southernchampiongarage What motor? I'm gonna guess either 350/400/383 or maybe 454
It has a 350
@@southernchampiongarage I'm guessing you'd never sell it
Nah man it’s been in the family for years.
What about this Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT in 285/65 20’s on a stock 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4. It does have the 2” level on the front from the factory- would you expect any rubbing issues? Stock tire size is 275/65 20. Thanks and a great looking truck!
That particular tire you are getting is equivalent to a 35x11.50 where mine is 34.3x11.6. I have a 2.5” leveling kit and only had rubbing on the mud flaps up front. I went with the delete kit and that took care of my issues. If you have rubbing, most likely it will be in the same place. If I were you, just be prepared to take the mud flaps off or like I did take them off and have the tires installed and then at home you can play around with them to see where “if” any they are scrubbing. At most you will have to delete the flaps and if push comes to shove, you can always toss on a 0.5” leveling kit that mounts on the bottom of the strut housing. These are super fast to install, I would recommend an alignment afterwards, although other people may advise it’s not needed I would. Hope this helps with your decision and appreciate it!
@@southernchampiongarage what truck do u have
How did it work out im debating on the same tire size on my At4.
Any balancing issues or flat spotting issues with these tires?
No, there weren’t anything we had seen. We also had them checked multiple times for that because that’s what we thought!
Genuinely think the Nittos looked better. Love the Baja boss performance, not a fan of the side biters. They make the tire look round
Hey brother, if you would have bought the crap $1800 Nitto tires with an American Express charge card, Amex would have refunded you the money if the dealer would not honor the return. Amex- Never leave home without it son!
Thanks for the tip brother! I will definitely look into that.
Little guys always jack up their trucks, how cute lol
We do that so fat no shape round body’s like you can’t get up in them lmao 🤣 I’d loose some weight before I’d say something about a little guy in a lifted truck 🤣 we like some round dumplings always running there mouths 🤣🤣
One phone book or two Napoleon?
None papa Smurf you think that was a lift you should have seen the truck we had before I had the channel I could of ran over your moms Prius. Oh yea that’s right I forgot she said you couldn’t fit in it anyway. Last time I check I thought the smurfs we super small, tiny and blue 🤣 how cute 😂 oh yea that’s right your the bigger Smurf that’s about 450 500 that sits behind a keyboard running your baby mouth but let’s face it we all know your mommy would be upset of how your making fun of somebody 🤣 im sure your mommy told you, you couldn’t have a big truck or wait…… was it your weight? Also your mommy did really cute picking your TH-cam account name!! Alpha Smurf maybe I should tell papa Smurf 🤣🤣🤣
Always that one, as said before…waste of oxygen and our time! The little guy again gains someone’s attention lol! Got you trying to figure out how to keep up.
@@alphasmurf6563 now you know there was two…one for me to sit on and the other to help your head.
My trail grapplers shake at 75-80
This nittos seem to be the MTs, should’ve gotten the ATs and should feel similar to the baja boss
Yes I agree I should have but the look is what I was shooting for. As I mentioned in another comment I have had these tires “”before””, they always rode true and no vibration issues. It’s hard to explain to those that haven’t felt this type of vibration. If you get a bad set you will understand that it’s not just because it’s a MT. - no disrespect
Should of just done a leveling kit and probably wouldn't have had to trim anything.
What is the gas mileage on this tire please Thankyou
It’s between 17 to 19
What is it about aholes with giant trucks that they feel the need to let their trucks sit there an run for no reason?
SCREW Nitto Trail Grapplers. I ran them twice. Both times I only got 40k out of them and both times they were the loudest tire I've ever ran. They are fine up until around 25k and then I had to basically scream to have a conversation in my truck cab. Couldn't even use the bluetooth. Nitto Trail Grapplers tread design is flawed.
Nice Truck
Appreciate it man! Thanks for watching!
I’m confused about what you expected from the Nitto. It’s a mud tire no an AT
You shouldn’t be confused about what I expected “if” you have owned several types of mud tires. I have owed TSL boggers, thornbirds, super swappers, Nittos of course, and the list goes on and on….my point is a tire should “not vibrate” (rear view mirrors, front driver/pass mirrors, seats, rear glass as if I had 15” sub in the bed, and drone like a helicopter is landing in the bed) being brand new! I have had mud tires ride better than AT. So that has nothing to do with the price of rice made in China. **Side note…I bought Nitto “TOURING” tires for my 2020 Lincoln replacing the Michelin’s “mistake” and had the same issues. All tires were bought from the same dealership at the same time. Just pondering what I should of bought instead of the touring? Answer- some more Michelins.
@@joshj9441 That’s crazy man sorry to hear that. I’m not hating at all because I like your Mickey Thompson’s way better than the trail graps anyways but as a whole I think Nitto makes quality tires. I’ve ran Toyo MTs and ATIIs, Cooper AT3 XLTs and Nitto G2s. The G2s have the best handling and ride quality in my opinion. I’m not sure about the trail graps but they definitely look like they’d ride rough. I’d get the Mickey Thompson’s in a heartbeat they’re just way too heavy for my 1500 lol
2019 Chevy Silverado with Nitto trail grapplers where AWSOME, now I have ridge grappler, no complaints. Sorry you had trouble
It’s all good man! Glad everything is doing well with yours.
Did you save enough money to buy a shirt that fits?
Sho did pimp got more money than you’ll ever make. May need to go ask your mommy for another joke…. You must have never lifted weights before…. Oh yea that’s right I forgot you look like a Oompa Loompa my boya get some 💪🏼
Hater Nation for those who don’t lift! Lol!!
Too much rim bro lol thts why
That vibration from your junk GM product. I had a new Silverado and they could never fix it and ended up getting rid of it and buying a RAM and never having a problem since lol
Actually looking at some now. 35k miles it just quit running 70mph, oil pressure dropped to zero for 45-60 seconds. Come to find out mass air flow sensor bad?!? Think we going to a ram. Just bought one for the camera guy we are about to put out on the channel soon.
There made by Cooper tire.
I know I had Cooper SST and that has to be the “worst” tire ever as far as noise and the tread being chopped. I had a rear diff bearing going out but couldn’t hear it due to the noise of the tires. It was a mud tire though, so what more to expect.
