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

Extremely Tough Tire
|
|
Cons:
|
Seeing them Wear out. Tread pattern changed. I had a better tread patern
|
|
I only owned them from half the tread life down to just slicks. I had the 33 13.50 on my 4runner and it was unstoppable. I think I had a Bias version of this tire not the (radial pictured above) as My Baja's had a solid tread pattern that didn't have the split treads in the center of the tire. They also had thicker and larger rim protection beads. Also My sidwalls where so thick I could run over anything in the woods I thought I was driving a log skidder. Anyway These tires were great in the mud. They were unbelivable in the sand. I didn't have to air down for any sand conditions but I did air down once or twice for fun and It was like driving on pavement. I had traction like crazy. I loved these tires. I replaced them with some Pro comps Extreme MT's and I wish now I could have bought the same Mickeys. But Don't see them that size no more. I think they changed the tread pattern too. Or I had a Off road version of this tire instead of the Radials.

They are a awesome tire,dont wear to fast at all.they do not make alot of road noise ether.i live in louisiana so we just have sloppy mud no rock and they do great.the only downside is when u have a heavy truck and u start goin down in the mud and keep giving it gas they will dig you all the way to china!! i highly recommend them...great tire

I ran a set of 35s that were almost bald on my Toyota and my cousin has a set of 33s on his silverado. I ran them in the mud and loved them, even if they didnt have much tread. My cousin uses them mostly on the highway, and he'll agree with me saying once they get worn down they like to sing, but we love them singing. The tires will go most anywhere, just hope you dont have to go in reverse with the directional tread

Great traction

Cons:

Extremely weak sidewalls
|

Ran bias claws in the past, and couldn't harm them with the most extreme wheeling. Have went through 3 radials now in less than 1000 miles. Sidewalls have been cut all 3 times. Very thin and weak sidewalls.

Great off road tire, Looks awesome
|
|
Cons:

Horrible street performance

Awesome for off-road use. Got me out of some deep stuff. Very loud on the road after some wear. Tracks very bad on the street. Actually jerked me into the opposite lane a few times.

Good tire, Great in the mud, they clean out well and sling mud everywhere. There is a lot of road noise and don't wear good on the road. I have to rotate them all the time. they seem to want to cup well atleast mine did. Great tire though, sometimes you just have to suck it up if you want a good tire

Incredible in the mud
|
|
Cons:

Wear, chunking, noise, driveability
|

35x12.5x15 Jeep Cherokee Sport, 6 inch ironrock lift. These tires are absolutely incredible in the mud. Not bad on the wooded trail either. This performance does come at a cost. They wear horribly, they loose chunks at a time if driven on the street very much. You can sell your radio because you won't hear it with these tires rolling. These do NOT load up, at least not in the types of soil we have in West Tennessee. No rocks yet but we are headed to the Superlift park in Arkansas in early June. I expect for them to perform decent on rocks. They balanced without problems but they don't drive very well. Very jittery but what do you expect with that much sidewall. I'm astounded at some of these reviews. What do you people expect from a set of mud tires/offroad tires? Generally you can't go from the trail to Watkins Glen. I prefer to keep this rig at 60 if we are on the highway. God forbid we ever have to avoid an accident with these tires. I'm an old guy (been driving for a while now) and these things make me nervous at highway speeds. Having said all of this I gave them a 10 because they will do exactly what they were made to do...GET MUD!

AWESOME mud, sand and deep water tire

could last a little longer/ Price

I live in S.E. Florida and have these on my 08 jeep JK. They've got about 20,000 miles on them and are 3/4 gone (not to bad). I use mostly street but do go off road a good bit. I'm in the Jeep club and have been in some very sticky, swampy, muddy stuff and these tires have never let me down!!! I'm the only one that has not gotten stuck in the group. If you can't get through forwards, you can sure back out of anything. The best off road tire bar none!!

Pros:

great in the mud, awesome on the road
|
|
Cons:
|
wear fast on a high hp truck, as any mud tire will
|
|
i cant believe people consider these tires noisy, these tires are extremely quiet and smooth, especially for how aggressive they are. iv had these tires up to 115mph and thats about when they finally start making some noise, still ride smooth tho. they do great in the mud and do very well in the sand even when the tread starts to get a little lower, but they do very poorly in the sand once you put the truck in reverse, they dig a hole like a true mud tire very fast in reverse. only downside to these is they wore out pretty fast on my truck, i got about 20,000 miles out of them, its a 500hp 95 chevy on 35s, i do burn outs, i run the truck at the drag strip, i drive it like a stole it so im not surprised at how these tires have worn. overall im very happy with them, id buy them again in a heart beat... if i could afford them again that is.

These tyres came on my Nissan when I brought it and have been excellent. They have lasted at least 70,000kms and still have around 4mm of tread in the centres (which is good for New Zealand as our roads are coarse chip with lots of corners). They have worn evenly as well and with good solid sidewalls I have had no punctures apart from perished inner tubes. Haven;t noticed a big problem with noise but my truck is fairly noisy anyway. Have found these tyres give good grip on the road even in the wet (have only locked up once on a wet road). They give me excellent traction even in 2wd on wet grass and dry stony conditions. There is also good grip on rocks, clay, muddy ruts, logs and river banks. I have been bogged in deep mud a few times but much of this is due to the fact that my old Nissan is heavy for its size and needs more clearance under the diffs as the tyres clear well leaving your vehicle with a good covering of mud. Main negatives include less traction in reverse and the cost here in New Zealand.
My truck is used for hunting, camping, 4wd club trips and around my families farm

After about 20k miles run them all in reverse to smooth your tires and overall ride. Couldnt drive on the hwy but can now, smoothly. I think the insides of the tires wear out faster...got 37" claws on a 99 gmc, 9 "'s of lift.

nothing bad to say at all

best truck tire i ever bought. running 35's on my 96 chevy tahoe with 9 inches of lift. these tires do it all. i get better than expected tread wear on the street. about 35k miles , how can i beat that for a cool looking tire like this. not too noisy like i keep reading about, great in snow and beach sand. i just wish they made a 35x14.5-16
thats my only issue. if you are not sure about which tire to buy, buy these tires. i love them
