no....4 wheel parts wouldnt mount them because they said they would be too big...so i had to go somewhere else...it was basically 650 + 70 for mounting...it woulda been a better deal if 4wp mounted them for me cuz they do it for free

I guess Mickey T just thinks very highly of their tires.....regardless. They look great. What size are they?

When I was living in the Philippines we had a fully restored FJ40 and the tires were Mickey Thompsons...of course the ones we had on the FJ were the Baja Belted HP, which is more agressive...I basically like the side lugs...

X2 whites on the inside! I just about did MTX's but wanted something a little more aggressive...TXR II's. The Mickey's look like a pretty decent tire, but they're pricey too! My 285's were $600 OTD.

I'm going to have to agree with Bob, only with one each of the sawing, banning, and drinking (maybe even without the drinking).
