any thoughts on mickey thompson baja claw tires..my local tire dude will sell cheap

 

One of my buddies had them. They wear really quick and suck in rain.
That might be why they are selling so cheap.

 

I know very little about this brand name but I have heard that the Pro Comp X-terrain gets alot of miles and alot of people that rock climb run the X-terrain. They are both directional tires and thats where the miles come from but alot of people like to rotate different and the directional can be a problem there. Their are alot of people here that should know alot more about this tire because I could be wrong and probably am.

 

See I just may be wrong...lol...we posted same time. dail-up sucks

 

I've heard they are great off-road but suck for daily driver tires, especially in rain.

As far as Mickeys as a brand in general, I have MTZs and love 'em.

 

I have the MTZ radials and couldn't be happier. The claws.........i dunno

 

i'll price the mtz now after the posts. thanks for the info i'll steer clear of them. what kind of mileage are the mtz getting?

 

From personal experience, I have them on my JK now, They are awesome off road. I cant say enough about them in the mud!!! However they are decent in the rain I have not had any troubles yet in the rain or deep puddles but they suck in the snow. I mean suck in the snow unless you are under throttle the go where you want but as soon as you let off be prepared to become a drift champion. If I had to buy them again would I? Probably not but if you dont get any snow in your area I would definitely run these tires. Just my 2 cents

 

I have the baja claws on my h2 which i am running 40's and i have had very good luck with the wear and the traction. it stays only on the highway. I guess if you look how heavy my h2 is compared to my jk , they should wear alot longer. I am running proc comp xterrain 38.5 tall tires on my jk and they are decent, i went for size rather than if they are a good tire or bad tire. In a nutshell the claws are a really good looking tire and they ride decent so if you can get a deal on them i would'nt hesitate.
