About This Tire

The Mickey Thompson Baja Boss A/T 265/70R17 is an all-terrain tire, designed for pickup truck, van, and full-sized SUV drivers who prioritize capable off-road performance and predictable on-road handling in everyday driving. Its tread design and compound focus on balancing aggressive traction features with civilized road manners through an asymmetric pattern and silica-reinforced construction.

The tire features a durable all-season compound molded into an asymmetric tread pattern engineered to balance noise, comfort, and grip on pavement while providing loose surface traction for off-road use. Notable technologies include a Silica-Reinforced Compound that improves wet performance and increases cut-and-chip resistance, plus Extreme Sidebiters that offer protection from sharp objects and create traction on off-camber terrain. Generous siping and grooves provide extensive biting edges for enhanced traction in wet conditions and light snow. With 248 driver evaluations providing real-world feedback, the tire demonstrates its capability across varied driving conditions.

Compared to highway-focused tires, it adds off-road traction while maintaining reasonable on-road manners. Overall, it's a solid choice for truck and SUV owners used primarily for mixed driving conditions where both pavement comfort and trail capability matter.
