    Mickey Thompson tyres

    Anyone have any experience with Mickey Thompson ATZ 4 rib tyres??

    I am thinking of installing 265 75 16's on my stock standard JDM VX.

    Any input appreciated.

    IMHO, Mickeys wear too fast. Had them 3 times in my life and never got more than 2 years out of them. Great grip but very soft rubber. Fun if you like a very LOUD highway rumble.

    Thanks for your input. I don't have a problem with wear because I can buy them with a 80,000 km (50,000 mile) guarantee. Wear them out for less, and you get that same percentage off your next set.
    I am concerned about noise though.
    MT make some pretty aggressive tyres - did your comment come from experience with the ATZ tyres, or a different model??
    Thanks.
