Mickey Thompson MTZ

is anyone out there running a 305/60/r18 Mickey mtz? If so could you give me some Insite as to what there like. Right now I'm running a nitto trail grappler and I'm wondering if they will be better or worse.

 

tires are going to be all preference. However i have heard someone say that they like the Mickey tires of all other tires. They said they are better on and off road. But that is his opinion, however Mickey Baja will probably be my next set of tires.

 

I loved the MTZ's I had on my Chevy. Quiet on the highway, however they do tend get a little loud toward the end of their lifespan. Off road traction is very good. Its the best set of tires I've ever owned.

My only concern with them is the weight. The size you are looking at is 64 lbs per corner.

 

They put the MTZ p3's out recently. I dont know if they replaced the old MTZ's or not. They look almost identical.

Also the ATZ p3, they are more of a mud/all terrain hybrid.

 

The MTZ P3 did replace the old MTZ with a slightly revised tread pattern, new sidewall construction, and a new rubber compound.

 

So you didn't find them howling too much?

 

They're an aggressive tread, they start out loud and get louder, like any real Offroad tire. Your question is purely subjective...

 

Well I'm running nittos, so I'm wondering if anyone has expirence with both and if it be louder than a nitto

 

On the highway they are the quietest mud terrain that I have been around. They aren't road tread quiet, and honestly its been about 4 years since I had them, but I didnt find them loud at all. But like NateMob said, its subjective. What doesn't bother one person may drive another up the wall.

 

I'm loving my Mickey Thompson mtz p3s! I will admit they do have a nice little howl. But I expected a little more noise changing from a less aggressive tire.

 

What size are those? I can almost make it out, looks like 265 75 16.

 

Those look great. Any off-road experience with them?

 

285/75/16

 

Only had them about a month now. And they have only seen sandy beaches. I'm itching to get it out on a trail.
