ATZs are over rated. Not a bad tyre, but they are over priced, weak carcus, and nothing special.
I have/had a set of Micky t ATZ 4 rib in a 33 for the past year, I have had countless troubles with spinning the rim, dirt in the bead and punctures from things you would expect a good 4x4 tyre to be able to handle. Yes I know that tyre pressures play a big part in those issues, but it has happened on steel and alloy wheels, and across just about every pressure from 18-40 psi, on and off road. As well as me not thrashing or driving erratic.
What I have done since I am over my ATZs is, is go and buy a set of 305/70r16 bfg km2s for $300 each. Fingers crossed they arrive tomorrow.
I am by no mean bashing Micky Thomson. I have had a bad experience with one of the popular lines, all I am doing is sharing my experiences.
