They handled the 1.5' feet of snow we had in January like a Champ ice they was terrific I only slipped a couple time. Mostly due to my lead foot. I think I will take a look at the baja legend exp and mtz and see about that tread pattern.
Any update?
So far so good Now I sorta screwed up and bought E rated ,I didn't realize they was E cause it wasn't in the Ad but was in the receipt and I have been running them at 27psi cold they have done really well in the snow I have 18thousand on them been rotating 5-6miles usually will oil change or very close . And they have plenty of life . They are NOT cupping and I love that. Worse thing is on these 0°F and -9 degree mornings when ya first start out the tires are cold and it will have a flat spot for about a mile or so. When smooths out quickly. I have been driving them in mud & snow & 3" limestone rock and they have performed very well and handle the rock very well and seem very resilient and tough. They do right an little rougher . But they barely have a sagging place in the side even on those cold days and they hold curves well.
I liked both as well but the baja boss AT is much better in wet conditions in my experience and to me, that makes the baja boss a better bargain.
Do you have a comparison between the MT and RT?
I have the Kendas , find that they do well in snow , mud , sand and water, they are studable tires.. yes they will accept tire studs and are set up for them. I have NOT done a 5 tire rotation I run 27psi cold and they seem to wear very well, I currently have 21k on them and from the looks of them another 20k easy. I work in sharp hammered rock and raw dirt with native stone sticks tree roots etc. Then finishing out to 3" limestone and there isn't a chunk out of any of them. They also are very quiet on the road very little noise. I actually have to turn the radio off to hear them ... so far I
like .
The MT's are louder on the road, as would be expected, but I use that vehicle mostly for mud and sand. If you are gonna have one set of tires for all activities, I would always go with the RT's. They have the better sidewall protection.
How do the RT perform in mud or sand? I'll be mainly using these tires in the summer.
I have found the Kendas to be outstanding in both. They are not a mud tire, but they are a pretty aggressive all-terrain. You can get them to clear with a little throttle. It would take a little more than it would with an MT. Generally, I have found all-terrains to be better than MT´s in sand, anyway, because they don´t dig like an MT. The Kendas do well.
