    Anyone see the ATZ P3 tires?

    I've always been a fan of the ATZ's... ran a set on my Silverado and a set on my Sierra. Checking out the Mickey Thompson tires recently came across their new ATZ P3. Looks like a good tire. Anyone have any experience with this one?

    Looks like a pretty aggressive AT design, but it being more of a hybrid makes sense. Pops has always been a mickey thompson fan, the TJ Im looking at has those atz, after owning the MTR I probably wont buy another Jeep tire! With a family I could understand the need for one of these though. Are you thinking of running these when you go SL?

    They remind me alittle of DuraTracs actually. Pretty aggressive tread but also a A/T design to help onroad. What is the cost compared to DuraTracs?

    What do you mean about "won't buy another jeep tire"? You mean something as aggressive as the MTR? And yeah, i'm thinking of running these with the superlift.

    In the 265/70/17 they're comparable. Looks like ~$20/tire more for the P3s.

    After I had the Duratracs on my Commander there were at least 3 wranglers at work who followed suit and installed them on their Jeeps. So i'd like to go with something "different" again

    Matt, I could be wrong but I think Andrew was trying to say he wouldn't buy any other tire but the MT/R. I'm thinking he was drunk when he wrote that. Haha I myself won't buy any other tire than an MT/R but if I had a second choice it would be the Nitto Trail Grappler

    Thinking a set of the 305/65/17 on a set of Fuel Anza wheels (17x8.5 -6mm offset) when I put my superlift on. Just not sure on which color.....





    I'm thinking the black ones with anthrocite ring so it breaks up the black/black tire/wheel interface.

    So your going to be running a modified Superlift and tires that aren't even 33 inches tall?!?!

    Thompsons generally run big. My ATZ's were a full inch wider than the spec size. And im targetting 5-5.5", not a full 6" so I think that size will work out nicely and allow me to flex a lot offroad.

    ...but if they came in a 305/70/17 I would definitely be torn on which one to get! We'll see how much clearance I have with my current tires after the lift. If i think the 65s will be too small i'll go a different route.
