    I am also considering them (295/70 R18) for my 2nd gen Sequoia. Would love to hear some feedback. Also, would be great to see pics of them on Tundra/Sequoia.


    It's either Legend EXP or Nitto Recon Grapplers.

    Yup, stand alone they look bad ass. It would be helpful to see how they actually look mounted on Sequoias/tundras.

    I've run Mickey Thompson tires for many years. I currently have the all terrain Baja atzp3 on my Tundra and love them. That "legend" model looks like a cross between the Deagan 38 Mud tire and their Deagan 38 All terrain tire that they make. The tires both got fantastic reviews as one is the the stadium truck fast rolling tire, and the other being a tried and true off-road/mud tire. This Legend looks like an offspring with half and half of those two tires. I was going to try them (Deagan 38 AT) out on my next tire change but my Bajas are on 50% so I have another 20-25k miles left on them. You can also call Mickey Thompson (not him personally) and get a human on the phone to talk to. They have always been good with costumer service too. Don't know if this helps, but I don't think you can go wrong with considering this new model tire from MT.

    I have been looking at the nitto recon grapplers at , Yokohama geolander at and these Mickey Thompson Baja legends

    I want something that rides good on highway and isn’t noisy. An aggressive appearance is a bonus

    I just got 60k out of my continentals and they still have some life left on them. Was really happy with them. Wouldnt mind a slightly more aggressive look though

    going to try the 295/65-20. (35x11.50)

    I was about to pull the trigger on the Mickey Thompson Baja legends, but found a good deal on a like new set of Toyo open country takeoffs

    will be getting those installed in the next week or 2

    I noticed these tires are very light for their size. I'm either gonna go with these or the Cooper Discoverer STT PROs.

    I’m running Mickey Thompson Baja Legend EXP 295/70r17. Don’t have many miles on them but yet, but so far I’m loving them.

    got mine mounted on Saturday. So far they look and ride amazing. Sorry for the dirty truck we happened to get a foot of snow the same day they were mounted.

    If you’re using that chart to compare weights to the stock Michelins, Toyota uses the SL version of the LTX that weighs 41 lb each. The LT weighs 52 lb.

    They actually look similar to the Hercules Terra Trac T/Gs.

    Wish I could go for 35s but not in the budget right now. They do ride smoother than my Toyo AT3s, but those tires had uneven wear from the previous owner. Can't wait to get them off road.

    Anyone else running these tires? I'm looking at moving to these when I jump up to 37s. Weight savings versus other comparable tires is pretty extreme at about 10 lbs per tire.
