Check out Cooper Discoverer STT's. Awesome tire. Alot better priced than Toyo's or BFG's.

I used to run the old bfg mt's and loved them. Some friends run the new style and they love em. I was impressed with the km2's last winter on my friends truck. Besides, at a 180 a tire I don't see the downside of trying them out.....I would.

There is a reason why Cooper is ALOT cheaper than Toyo /BFG
Cheap is not good & good is not cheap

Google tire recall & look at Coopers list of recalls Just remember all thier truck tire line starts with the same green casing

Well not everyone has $1000.00 + to drop on Toyo's that wear like shit. I've run Toyo's, BFG's, Coopers, and goodyears and bang for the buck you cant beat the STT's.

I'm going to agree with dieseldoc, my Toyo's cost me $2400 and didn't last me 15k miles, my 38.5x14.50R20 procomp extreme a/t's cost half that and have a 40,000 mile warranty so really i don't care if they only last 10k still a better deal than toyo's. oh and i never did a burn out with the M/T's on they just wear awful and they cost an arm and a leg

Agree----But when these tires come apart with littel or no warning the $$ that you saved yesterday will cost you more tommorow... damage to your truck alone will absorb the savings & hopefully nobody gets hurt
I have been in the tire business over 25 yrs seen alot...a buddy of mine who also is somewhat in the tire industry experenced tire failure at 75mph on his f-250 he was lucky to walk away limping & the truck went to the salvage yard... I had this same exact discussion with him a 18 mo ago on another board. I will be glad to foward all imformation to anyone
Unless you want to get rid of EX WIFE (LOL) avoid Coopers
