    I love them. I have a 3in Toytec lift and I can't solve some vibration issues , so I"m going back to stock or close to stock suspension. I will probably have to run 265/75/16 . The coopers are around a 33x9.5 or 10.50.

    here are some pics when I installed them in October. They are perfect. I don't go wheeling for fun. No patches, plugs, etc. They are like brand new with 3k miles on them.

    What kind of MPG are you getting with those tires? How loud are they? How are they in mud?

    visually...from the side you wont notice much difference between a 255/85/16 and a 285/75/16 but from a head-on perspective you'll notice the difference in width...and the height difference is enough that it could create a rubbing issue on fenders

    They do real well in mud. I hunt alot and our land is very messy with prairie mud. I wanted a good tire for everyday driving and for hunting. No complaints.
    Don't really check gas mileage. I only Have 3k miles on truck. No louder than most at tires.

    With my lift, I have never rubbed at all anywhere. Most rubbing issues are do to width and these are definitly not wide.
