Description: Mickey Thompson Baja Claw Radial
The Baja Claw Radial is an extremely aggressive Mud Terrain tire not just in looks but also in performance. The massive diagonal lugs extent from center out and down around the sidewalls to provide excellent forward momentum through mud, sand and snow. Rock crawling is enhanced by the large grooves cut through the lugs, allowing the up to 6-ply design and construction to wrap around rocks like a glove especially when aired down to 10 psi or lower. Polyester and fiberglass along with the wrap-around tread design helps to make the Baja Claw one of the toughest Mud Terrain tires on the trail. Street manners are dependant on whether you choose the Bias Ply (referred to as the Mickey Thompson Competition Claw) or Radial design, however noise levels are are somewhat elevated in both construction types with the Bias designed primarily for the off-road. The Baja Claw is available in both Bias Ply (Mickey Thompson Competition Claw) and Radial designs for your preferred application. Sizes availability, 31" thru 37" in rim sizes of 15, 16, 16.5 and 17 inch wheels. The bias ply is available in 35x13.00-15 37x13.00-17

Pros: Awesome in Mud
Cons:

I have a set on a 02 TJ and I was going places that boggers would not go. A little noisy on the street, but if you don't like the mud tire noise don't by mud tires.

Pros: Great in mud and sand
Cons:

I have used 31X10.5 claws on my wrangler for over a year. The stiff sidewalls and large tread voids are very noticable on the street. These tires pull hard through mud and sand. They also handled 15 inches of snow with out a problem. Tread wear has been very good but my jeep only weighs 3500 lbs. I could not think of a better tire for trail riding in the pinelands.

Pros: All around a great tire
Cons:

All around a great tire, everyones right about the noise, but im not complaining, thats the main reason why i bought the tire Smile i havent got stuck yet so that must be good. I did a test: first i hooked my winch up to a tree with my old 31x10.5 BFG AT's and dragged all 4 wheels, when i got my 33x12.50's on it gripped in the sand beaaaauttifully and yanked that sum bitch right out! i also think there great looking tires, i dont recommend these on the freeway though, you might get the coyotes rialed up

Pros: claws are very tough to beat
Cons:

On my YJ I have the MT Comp Claws at 15x35.50x15.50s. I use this vehicle primarily to and from work and on instances for play on my weekends. The drive to and from is fairly short (within 30 minutes each way) and my weekend jaunts are usually a couple days at a time. I've had the experience of putting these tires in almost every situation imagineable because of the high mountains where I reside and nature utilizing all four seasons to exercise her strength in my area. In mud, snow, sand, steep climbing and trail articulation I must say these claws are very tough to beat and well worth the money. I have two other vehicles which I use for distance transportation and these type of wheels would just not be feasable on the highway for any long trips. The faster you go, the more they growl beginning with a deep tone at low speeds to a high gear grinding type roar at high speeds. Quick stops on the highway are also somewhat of a no-no. But if your vehicle spends 50% or more in dirt or anything else nature can throw your way I highly recommend the MT Claws. I've had them now for 2 years and have had absolutely no problems (this includes leaks, punctures, tears or anything else). It has been money well spent and I will buy another set when these wear out. On my other vehicles I'll stay with a more on/road off/road radial with civil highway manners. And is as typical with this aggressive near army-tank track tread, I usually end up pulling people out of messes in 2WD while they're stuck and in 4WD. (If you use your vehicle somewhat more on pavement but want this type of tire I'd go with the radial vs. the bias-ply.) Highly dependable and everyone loves the way they look on my YJ! Only reason I didn't rate the tire a 10 is ...it's pretty tough to beat a tank in the rough stuff!

Pros: Very aggressive in sand, really eats up slick rocks
Cons:

Pros: Excellent in mud and on sharp rock.
Cons:

Excellent in mud and on sharp rock.


Road is a little noisy but quieter than BFGoodrich mud terrain.


Wearing well after 20 000 km (12000miles)


They like to dig a little too deep in sand and bury themselves but still better than BFG muds.

Pros: Great in Mud
Cons:

I use mine for mud, that's about it, great tire, pulls great in the mud, a bit noisy at on the street, other than boggers, probably about as aggresive as you get.

Pros: Great in Mud
Cons:

i mud a lot in these, they pull great, no comparison to all terrains, if you are in the mud much, but still need some on-road performance, go big and get the claws.

Pros: Great Tire
Cons:

Good on road, little hum, sounds like tank when stopping (15-0mph. excellent in the mud and great on the snow. Took my jeep (31x10.5r15)hunting and drove it with no chains in the snow and my buddy had to chain up in his suburban. not great climbing sand hills (does good just not great they dig fast) great on a wooded trail i was able to climb over a fallen tree in 2lo with no problem. hardly ever complain about not getting lots of tractions on slippery surfaces. i am going to buy another pair soon. (plans to lift more and go with 35x12.5r15)

Pros: tough tire, moderate price
Cons:

This tire has pulled my 98 Wrangler thru some deep mud, loose sand, 15 inches of snow without hesitation. If you are looking for a tire that will go where you want this is the one. Road noise is an issue at any speed over 25 but at 40 my soft top is louder. Hard to beat for the money concidering what the big companies want for their premium off road tires. The bottom line; tough tire, moderate price, go almost anywhere tread, but like any tire they can not do everything.

Pros: Not a bad tire
Cons:

Not a bad tire at all. I like the sidebiters nice for rocks. I have been through the Rubicon with both these and my SSRs. The SSRs did a lot better and I found myself winching a lot when running the big sluice and would not catch on the keeper. I would not recommend these tires for anything but sand and maybe rock. If you are looking for mud even the Toyos will outshine these. If your looking for sand you will not go wrong with Mickey Thompsons they are fantastic in sand, other than that stay away. This is from an experienced rider.
