    Have been looking at A/T tires and cannot decide. Have looked at the following : Cooper Discover ATR 265/75/16, Definity Dakota A/T, General Grabber A/T2, Firestone Destination A/T, and Delta makes some inexpensive tires. I have had Goodyear and BFGoodrich in the past and they ware too fast and way too expensive. I want the most bang for the buck. Aggresive tread with good ware at a good price. Any suggestions ?? Leaning towards the Cooper right now .....

    I have COOPER DISCOVERER STT's in 305/70/16 Cost me $234.50 each mounted & balanced. This is my second set. They have great tread (17/32nds in my size)
    A 265/75/16 STT would have 18/32nds tread. They wear very good and handle mud / snow awesome. They do break traction easy on wet pavement, but that is only if you hit the throttle fast. I do a lot of off-roading and these are great tires, but if your only going for looks and stay mainly on pavement, I'm not sure because they cost more than some well known name brands.
