Time for Tires
Hey guys, after about 30,000 miles on the cooper STTs Im ready for another set of tread and I cant decide what I want.. I definatly need an M/T or an aggressive A/T. I also want a tire that looks good, the STTs are awsome looking but I kinda want to try something different.
Anyone have any pics of trucks with 16 inch wheels and a 35 inch tire???
What do you think about the Goodyear M/Ts ??? I like how they look but not sure how they hold up.
Thanks for any help!

Thanks Storm, my only problem with the Toyo's is that I kinda want white lettering, and I dont think you can get that with the Toyos. Ever since I was little Ive loved the white lettering on tires.... Im nuts I know...

I know.. I was the same.. Loved the white lettering.. But after my problems with BFG tires.. I threw em in the trash and got these Toyo's.. I can't tell you how great they are.. You just have to experience it for yourself.. I've already put them through some good offroad fun and they live up to.. Minus the massive collection of dirt they throw up the side..
But.. I saw a set of BFG MT's.. Wasn't too fond of the tread pattern.. Looks to be very noisey..

I had 285/75R16 Goodyear MTRs on my 99 F250, and now I have 35x12.5R20 Toyo Open Country M/Ts on my 07 F350. While I was fairly happy with the Goodyears on my old truck, I am much happier with the Toyos on my new one. The Toyos are quieter, have better traction, and seem to be wearing better.
If you really like the white letter look I think there is some kind of marker that you can use to color the lettering white yourself. I've never heard of anyone that used it though, so I'm not real sure how well it works.

I have heard good stuff about the goodyear MTs...
How bout the new BFG MT KM2s? Check em out, see if you like them...
I have some pics of my truck when I had 35s with 16in rims and a 4 in lift
had the maxxis buckshot mudders, they were good in the mud and not bad on the road, but a lot of people have bad things to say about them...

Alright guys, after lots of looking around I ended up ording a set of Dick Cepek Mud Countrys. I wanted to try something different, and they look pretty awesome, Hopefully they hold up well. Anyone else run these???
