New Tire Options for Stock Wheels?

The 35x12.50's are C rated. I went with the 315/70's, which are D rated. Max pressure is 55 or 60.

Desmo Pilot,

Desmo Pilot,

Truck is brand new, so getting about 13mpg right now.

I'm liking the tires a lot. They ride smooth, quiet, are not heavy. I have run many sets of BFG Muds on my Jeeps and other F150, and have always been very happy with them. I was going to run KM2's on the Raptor, but they are back ordered for about two months. So, decided to give the new gen MTRs a shot. So far, so good. I had run a set of the first gen MTRs on a Jeep and didn't like them. They did a nice job on the revision.

I would confidently recommend the MTRs. I am very likely going to put a set on my other F150.

For the price of those you better like them! $460/tire!

I paid $315/tire. BFG KM2s are running $350/tire.

Mickey Thompson Baja Claw TTC Radial's look like a good tire weighing in at 68#'s/tire...

Mickey Thompson Baja Claw TTC Radial LT315/70R17

Or the Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ Radial? Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ Radial LT315/70R17

Does anyone have any experience with either one these?

The Mickey Thompson Baja Claw MTZ, in my experience, would grab little rocks and throw them everywhere.

Sounds like a good choice. How the road noise and comfort of the MTR's?
