Hey Neil do you have any experience with those tires?

Also I am having the toughest time finding the Cooper St weight anywhere, does anyone maybe have a link for me? Coopers site doesnt have it

Ya I looked there but, at least me, I dont see a tire weight anywhere?

 

nope

 

No, but I've read mostly good about them if you can find them and if you can afford them. When I buy tires my list is m-55, km2, cooper st, toyo open country mud. I really like the 255/85 size look. This is my first truck and my first set of off-road tires... when I get them.

 

I am done some running and shopping around and it seems like Coopers are the best looking as far as price for this size goes

 

Same thing I found.

 

They weigh 47 lbs.

 

Ya after talking with them I found out its actually 48 pounds

 

Hey Steven or anyone else you has experience with the Cooper ST, how do they handle when you air it down? I was reading reviews and such between the ST's and KM2's and BGF says that the KM2's have "zones" that are specifically designed to sort of crumple in on themselves when they get aired down to trail driving PSI

 

Haven't tried airing them down yet. That stuff about the BFG's is bs though, any tire is going to be able to crumple in on themselves when aired down, those "zones" are just the voids in between the tread blocks.

 

the voids on the km2 are at such an angle that they are concave making them hug the rocks better. they got the idea from their krawler tires

Krawler T/A are the parent of the km2s

smallest they come in is 35s

Interco makes a TSL radial in 265/80/16.

 

ah, okay. I've never heard of that.

 

THose of you running this size...how long until you got used to their narrowness or lack of width??? HAha im shocked and dont know how i feel. They are also on an 8" rim and it kind of shows

Ps. Got them this morning

 

They are wider than the 245/75 stock tires. They just look unproportional. It think they look awesome and more practical than the fatter 285s
