    Tall skinny tires

    Like a pair of fine leather boots 😬 let me check the tread depth tomorrow

    Tall skinny tires

    They’ve been great! I can’t say I’ve put them through all the paces, but they were great off-road when I used them on dirt trails. Road noise is more than my previous AT (which were basically just road tires), but significantly less than MT.

    Tall skinny tires

    I really like them so far. I’ve only put a little over ~1K miles on them. Much the same reason I went towards an AT rather than MT, most the mileage has been pavement getting to the outdoors, with some miles of fire road and trails to camp.

    Tall skinny tires

    I measured the tires inflated on 17 x 7 wheels at about ~34 3/8” diameter. I think if I reduce the air pressure, I’ll be able to squeeze the spare into the stock location with the wits end bracket

    Tall skinny tires

    I’m on stock gears right now and don’t plan to tow anything in the near future. I’ll probably end up doing 4.88 gears and lockers in the future, but I really need to get this thing on the trails before buying more s*** and it being a forever project but no playtime. I have a tendency to spend...

    Tall skinny tires

    Honestly, that’s very considerate of you so I applaud you. So much context is lost in this format compared to speaking so I try err on the side of overly nice. I was also wondering if there was a specific story where someone was upset because you said their tires weren’t super aggressive mud...

    Tall skinny tires

    Yeah, I thought using ‘M/T’ might be confusing but it’s even how Mickey Thompson abbreviates their name, so thought maybe it was clear to people that know more than me. these are all-terrain tires. I don’t spend enough time off road to need mud terrain tires so I wanted something like a more...

    Tall skinny tires

    they were excellent for the 2 miles from tire shop back home 😬 honestly didn’t seem any louder at freeway speed than previous A/T tires. Upgrade in size (+4” diameter) was noticed because turbo spooled boost at lower RPM than before but car wasn’t any slower because of said turbo. I can...

    Tall skinny tires

    Took a chance on the M/T 255/85R17s but they are in fact “tall and skinny”. I just ordered the wits end spare tire lift bracket so I’ll test fitting it into the spare location as soon as that arrives (hopefully this weekend). previous tire was a 275/70 so not much skinnier than I was used to...

    Tall skinny tires

    Those M/T Baja Boss A/T’s in 255/85 seem like exactly what I’ve been searching for. It doesn’t seem like there’s a lot of wheel options for us besides TRD Pro wheels as it seems like most 17” rims are 8.5” wide. 34.24” diameter tire should stuff into the stock location. Site lists these as...
