Mickey Thompson Baja Legend EXP | Best of Both Worlds 

Thanks for watching!

I do like that they’re lighter… BUT they also run about a 1/2” smaller in height vs most others. Not a big deal but they do run small, height wise.

Yes! that was a disappointment for sure ...

@@jeffreymceloryjr4155 i replaced my 285/70/17 KO2s with same size Mickey Baja Legends and the Mickeys run big vs the KO2s. Much taller maybe 1/2-1” taller than the KO2s.

@@4xfortuner812 we’re talking about a specific size in a specific model tire here. I can’t speak for any other size, I just know the 35” Baja Legend EXP runs small. Not really sure of the relevance

Did you get 40k out of them?

@@gavush Yup!

They ride just as smooth as the highway tires I replaced. Slight hum of course but nothing bothersome. I was surprised how smooth they were and they feel very stable.

I went up to a 31.5" tire (265 65/R18) on my Trailhawk (with the air suspension) and I'm very happy with the size and tires (Mickey Thompson Deegan 38, which I don't think they make any more). In my research it seemed to turn into a bit of an engineering project if you even go to a 32" tire (275 65/R18). I didn't want to get into trimming wheel wells or messing with offsets. Just my experience, for what it's worth, not saying I'm an expert.

@@GS-re9iv Much obliged, sir. 😎👍 I was thinking 32" too, but like you I don't want to do any panel trimming.

We live in western North Carolina. The trails are windrock are great 👍🏻

Have you ran both Tyres on the same vehicle before?

Lol I have 65k miles on my baja Atz. Just now about to replace them and looking at these because I'm doing a lot more highway driving

no issues at all1

@@ProdigalOverland awesome thanks for responding

Stingray grey

@@ProdigalOverland Thanks!

I have 25000 on them now. I really like them.

I ran KO2 on my F150 and they are not very good on wet pavement and snow. The Falken AT3W Ive been running now for 30k does better in rain/snow for a daily in my experience. KO2 rides better, and looks better though. Ive got no input on the MT Baja Legend EXP. Maybe my next set...... Just my input if it helps.

@@ProdigalOverlandhow many miles on them now? I just bought a set last weekend! What pressure do you recommend on normal road driving? Any issues at all? Noisy?

How are you liking them after using them for awhile? Thank you

There's a slight hum but nothing obnoxious. They ride very smooth and handle very stable. Only thing they're not great at is winter driving.

I think it’s good. I have 20000 on them now. Very happy

How’s the road noise now after 20,000 miles? I need a set for my campervan. I’m looking for the aggressive look without being noisey. Also.. weighing nearly 3000 pounds… I don’t want a tyre that lets go in the rain. My falken WP’s let go in the rain quite often I will be going on dirty muddy trails to get to campsites, but I definitely won’t be taking my van off roading, because it’s just not practical as things fly around in the cabin. The thing im also trying to avoid is that vibration or transfer of road chatter. Would you say that the compound is soft enough and side walls being 2 ply, that it helps ? I’d love to hear back from you! 🙏🏻 Great review 👌🏼👌🏼

I have no issues with them, still happy and will probably get them again when these wear out.

Funny how I could pick one up from the Jeep dealership with Wildpeaks. The lift, yeah it is only a 2" lift, it is advertised as a 2.5" which is where they are coming from.

Nope. Your information is wrong. While the mopar lift may be called a 2” lift, its 2.5” on every single rubicon gladiator and on other trims its 3” You could not possibly be any more incorrect on your tire knowledge rubicon gladiators come ONLY with Falken tires, either all terrain or mud terrain. For a guy with an ego large enough to try and call someone out, you sure don’t have any knowledge at all. Do better

My 2022 gladiator rubicon came stock with 285/70/17 wildpeak MTs. Not added by the dealer. Literally stock from thr factory
