What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

[WILDHOBO]

Got new tires put on. I stayed with Mickey, but am going to try Baja boss MT’s. I had the ATs for the last two sets. It’s not my daily driver anymore, so why not. I haven’t put the rash guards back on though.

Thats what I got on now and I have to say off road capabilities are tops but overall the worst tire I ever had , they aren't true they are noisey especially once they wear down and they do NOT clean out clay mud very well till your going 30miles an hour. Im changing to sumpen else.🫣‍

Oh well. Thankfully there’s no clay here. I think they’re going to work well for my uses. But if they don’t, not the end of the world. I won’t have a good feel for them until I get the pressure correct. They’re way too high after discount mounted them.

What color is your Jeep? It subtle, so I can’t tell.

Had to wait until it cooled down to 95° to hand wash. Looks good all cleaned up.

It’s hard to tell, the lights in the barn throw it off lol.

I actually liked 30-32 on pavement . Maybe too low , But screw it I dont carry a pump at work so I run that poundage in the dirt and mud seems to work.

Washed and took the doors off. I forgot to roll down the drivers side window after I disconnected the harness. PITA to carry it around like that lol. Rookie mistake and I’ve owned this thing for 4.5 years!

Maybe that’s why you hated them. Mickey recommends 27 cold on the 37x12.5x17 on a gladiator. Same on the bb at. They’re butter at that psi. I wheel them around 14, and as low as 10.

I will try that and see if it helps some.

I had my first set in the 30’s for the first 5k miles and they wore too much in the middle and felt a bit harsh. I called Mickey and they have a calculator for their tires that takes input about the vehicle they’re on. I couldn’t believe 27 cold, but they were right.

Call Mickey Thompson 1-800-222-9092 you'll need the door tag, original tire size, and new tire info. They'll tell you exactly what to run them.

Your tires completely surprised me, but their recommendation has turned out correct hasn’t it? Of course, I’m not a rubber engineer, lug doctor, sipe statistician, or a sidewall superhero. That’s why I call and ask the experts.

That's what I did with General tires. I gave them the door sticker PSI, the original tire size and so on, and they figured what I should run in their tires.
