I am considering these as well! In 295/70/17 on a +35 offset wheel, Base model no lift. I would love to see them on someone's Bronco if anyone has done it!

Not sure, just looking for feedback on the Mickey Thompson’s I mentioned. Just looking to run something a little different than the KO2’s, Nitto’s etc that most folks run.

Right I am looking at either Mickey tire because they're made in America but don't understand the difference yet.

Ah! The Lengends aren't 3 peak rated. We get too much snow to not go 3 peak with the Baja Boss

Doubt you'll get much feedback for the Legend EXP seeing how 'new' this model is, but you can look at reviews of the Dick Cepek Trail Country EXP for general feedback since it is substantially the same tire that Mickey Thompson now gets to sell after the buyout.

Do wish they would make a C-load version like BFG does with the K02, but I still really like the looks of it, definitely on the short list for when the stock Goodyears wear down. Unfortunately while the old TC EXP tire was a bargain and could be had for about $700/set after rebates, it looks like Mickey Thompson has decided to chase the rest of the AT tire market and sell them for ~$340 each

These are on my radar since everything is out of stock and on!y getting worse. They aren't as aggressive as I'd like but they wieght in fairly light for what they are. I'm leaning towards the MTZ P3 though but a rumor tells me those are being discontinued.

Slim Pickens in the tire market.

I'm looking at the MT Boss or Legend instead of the KO2s. Following for feedback.

I'm running the Baja ATZ. It's a lot louder than the K02. The tighter tread pattern of the EXP might be quieter.

I haven't tired them offroad yet though so no comment there.

I looked at them at 4wp's and went with the mtz P3s I had my mind set on. It's a pretty mild tire, K02, AT3, recon grappler...etc. If it was a daily driver with some distance involved I probably would have went with it..
