Since the 1960s, Mickey Thompson wheels have featured innovative designs with features such as performance handling, good puncture resistance, etc. The company’s dedication to performance tires is no secret. The accomplished Mickey Thompson and fellow racecar driver Gene McMannis have been designing and developing tires for all of the renowned racing events, including Daytona and Indy 500.
The tires are available in different sizes and styles and feature varying tread depths, widths, and diameters. Heavy-duty models are available for Jeeps. They are all made with advanced tire technology and engineering to deliver a quiet ride and off-road traction.
If you want a quality tire, you need a quality wheel to go with it.
Here’s an overview of popular Mickey Thompson wheels.
Deegan 38 Pro
Just recently released, the Deegan 38 wheel series features a race-inspired, multi-dimensional eight-spoke design. Available in 15 to 20 inch filments, depending on whether you get the Pro 2 or Pro 4, these wheels are designed with a 2-stage matte black finish. The pop-top center cap is logo-crested. Both the Pro 2 and Pro 4 are compatible with tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). The Pro series is designed for street trucks, SUVs, and Jeeps.
M/T Metal Series
The M/T Metal Series line is available in four different designs and five styles for truck, Jeep, and SUV enthusiasts. These heavy duty wheels are affordable and feature a durable black powder coat. The center cap is embossed with the Mickey Thompson name stamped onto the face. Several options are available, including the original eight-hole wheel, the 10-hole D-Window wheel (MT-88), and the popular 15-inch, 16-inch, and 17-inch sizes. The exclusive 17×9 size is ideal for late model trucks with large brakes. The heavy-duty steel construction ensures that the wheels will last a lifetime.
