The Mickey Thompson Baja Legend M/TZ generally receives highly positive feedback from users who praise its aggressive styling, exceptional off-road traction in mud and snow, and surprising highway manners for a chunky mud tire. However, some users note compromises such as reduced handling precision on heavy vehicles and occasional manufacturing defects like out-of-round tires.
What owners say
No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.
How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.
By owner reviews
51/100From 7 owner reviews analysed, scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70.

Pros
- Aggressive, mean exterior styling that enhances vehicle appearance
- Outstanding traction in deep snow, mud, and off-road trails
- Relatively low road noise considering the aggressive tread pattern
- Durable performance under heavy towing and outdoor workloads
Cons
- Noticeable decrease in handling and cornering responsiveness
- Expected tread wear may be faster on heavy-duty diesel trucks
- Quality control issues reported with out-of-round tires
- Standard mud-terrain tire road noise
Worth knowing
- Users running these on heavy-duty trucks like the F250 6.7 noted a decrease in cornering handling and faster tread wear under heavy towing conditions.
- Lighter vehicles are expected to yield higher overall tread life based on heavy-duty wear observations.
