Different to the old Baja's but still great
Im running 315/75/16 on a lifted FJ Cruiser.
The new Baja's ATZ are a different ride to the old ones and a few things have improved.
The side wall is firmer and does not bulge/bag out as much at low pressures, which is a good thing for front to back grip and general support.
Just like the old ones, they go great in mud, and they really are the most aggressive AT you can get for mud. They eject the mud well and don't slick up.
Balancing was difficult. It always needs a bit for 35's but this was far worse than the last set.

The best offroad biased aggresive AT you could have
Having a set of 265/70/17 on the Amarok, went beach and bush tracks couple of times had no problem. Haven't been to deep muds but All4Adventure guys took them through lots of bog holes in Cape York I reckon they are closed to proper mud tyres, if not quite equal (they change to MTZ in the new season).
Dry road handling is good enough, very closed to the best road biased AT (697 or ATR), wet roads are a little more slippery but not too bad, certainly better than some less aggressive big brands. They are by far the strongest AT I've even seen...Read more
, very heavy carcass, deep tread (14mm new, normal ATs would be around 10-11mm). I have same size Toyo AT2 on my other Rok the ATZ is a lot heavier, also performs better on road than the Toyo (a surprise also a disappointment to the Toyos). The only downside is the noise. They are clearly noisier than those road biased ATs but a lot better than proper mud tyres, on par with other aggressive ATs e.g. Cooper St Maxx (basically the same tyres as ATZ). But with such aggressive tread pattern you'd expect this or you'd go something smoother. They are also the most expensive ATs but if you can afford the price they certainly worth it.

Great tyres
On an FJ Cruiser. Been on for 30,000km so far an I reckon I'll get at least 80,000km. Deep tread wearing very well with regular rotations. Good grip in all conditions. Great chunky all terrain. Look the part. Priced around $380 a tyre in Mackay 2015. More noise than the factory tyres but to be expected given the aggressive tread. Recommended. I'll be buying them again.

40000k and almost half worn.
I've had these on for 10000k's now including a 5000k round trip to Cape York. These are the most aggressive tyres I have purchased and they do hum a little. They don't annoy me though like some of the muddies I've heard. I've been in soft sand, rock and slippery muddy banks and they've performed excellent. I have them on a stock Mazda Bravo with a 2" lift and completed the entire Tele Track and Frenchmans without needing a snatch or a winch. There was another couple with a major brand of AT's fitted that struggled on the slippery stuff. They di...Read more
dn't have as an aggressive tread pattern though. They seem to be wearing well at the moment measuring 12mm down from 14mm when new. Update. 020416. The tyres have been on for about 12 months and have around 20000k. The hum has gotten a little worse but still bearable. The tread has 11mm left to the wear indicators and I'm still happy with the off road performance. I haven't bogged yet in either sand or mud but haven't gotten in super deep. They lack a little traction on fresh wet bitumen but I'm had far worse. I watch the pressures closely and I'm running a set of 6, rotating every 10000k. Next update. 30000k. 9mm of tread left to the wear indicators. No change in the hum. Wet tar is still a little slippery. Still haven't had any issues. Soft sand without dropping the pressures is a little hard going but managed to do a recovery of a Hilux and camper the other day with 40lb still in them. 40000k now. Just about 2yrs old. 8mm of tread left which is 1mm above half. Hum is still the same. I'm used to it now and is not annoying. Wet tar is still a little slippery. We have a notorious roundabout here and I've had the front break traction. Everywhere else you just have to take care and its livable. On the dirt is still great and a trip to Fraser Island is coming up soon. More info on the way.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

spent 1hr in car wash. These tyres had no problem. I cant see the needs for a muddy. Started to have few cut n chips on the blocks. Reasonable given the abuse they've came through.
