Dive into the world of off-road performance with this exclusive interview from the Jeep Talk Show! Host Tony chats with Ben Anderson, Senior Product Manager of Light Truck and Off-Road Tires at Mickey Thompson Tires, who shares his 19 years of expertise. From Mickey Thompson's legendary history as an innovator in drag racing, land speed records, and off-road (including starting SCORE and winning the Baja 1000) to their current lineup of hybrid AT tires like the Baja Boss AT and Baja Legend EXP, premium mud terrains such as the Baja Boss MT and Baja Legend MTZ, and extreme options like the Baja Pro X and Baja Boss X. Ben breaks down key tire tech: PowerPly XD for puncture resistance, asymmetric patterns for quieter rides, sidebiters for extra traction, and how to choose the right tire-wheel combo for your Jeep (JK, JL, JT, TJ, and more). We cover wheel styles like the MT Canyon Pro and Classic III, tips for rock crawling, mudding, and daily driving, plus insights on EV tire wear, sizing (up to 44s!), and why Mickey Thompson tires excel in Moab trails and beyond. Ben also teases upcoming SEMA reveals and shares stories from his diverse vehicle collection, including his Galaxy 500 and future Jeep plans.
