    What Kolton said ^^^

    I like them quite a bit. Very good grip, flex easily, and not loud on paved roads (yet). Haven't had a chance to test them in snow yet. Also not expecting anything over the top from an MT in the snow, though.

    Edited my first post as you were responding. I haven't really used them in snow yet. This past weekend we got into a little, but it wasn't enough to justify snow bashing. I'm not expecting anything great out of them... probably on par with most MT tires in the snow. I'll keep you posted as it gets colder, though:thumbsup:

    Sweet! I'm getting new tires around tax time so that should give you plenty of time to test em. May just get the ATs and then snag some MTs for the summer when I get up there

    Cooper st maxx is a super impressive tire...30k and I have beat the living shit out of them between super sharp shale, boulders and anything else you can think of. They are still super quiet and smooth on road while a beast offroad and in snow. If they made them in a 295 id be getting them again but I might go stt pro at the end of next summer or a 295 ko2...don't know yet

    Just trying to do some super early research. Both of the Coopers are on the list along with the Dynapro MTs

    These are my D2S 3.0s with Apollo shrouds. To me, they look the same size, or pretty damn close to alee891's. I think the difference is the shrouds. :notsure:

    Yeah, now that I think about it you both have chrome shrouds which shows exactly where the projector starts. Having black shrouds it all blends together.

    Interested in that as $600 for D2S are just a bit outside the budget (is there really one?!?)
    I am curious if the HID ballast can handle the offroading and water, lets say, Tahuya?

    Probably run ATs in the winter and have MTs for wheeling just like Brett does. Hope I can find a place with decent storage up there ha

    Has there ever been a rig of the month or rig of the week thread? Where the members can just take turns weekly or monthly laying out the process or steps of their builds? There's quite a few trucks here that I'd love to see here in that type of a format.
