    I tried them, they were okay. I have weird pressure points on my hands that the rouge grips seem to suit nicely

    That’s cool, so uhaul won’t rent me the car hauler Trailer because of weight issues from their computer system. I can rent the car dolly though. I need to research if the bug needs to be registered to tow it on a dolly.

    I can only compare them to e rated KO2’s, but the cooper’s are much smoother on road and the traction in the rain is way better.

    I installed some rails on my truck on the cheap.
    I just had to find some rails. Found em for 50 bucks on Amazon. Had to tweak them a little and added my own aluminum square bar cross members. All in All, about $100 instead of the ridiculous $600 by Yakima.

    They’ve held up to 6 3/4” plywood and 12 studs. :)

    I have the St Maxx in 255/80/17 according to Cooper 56lbs per tire the AT3 xlt in a 285/75/17 (a 34" tire) is 58 pounds per tire so other than the width creating more drag shouldn't be much difference. Only issue is i will most likely need wheel spacers and i will have to buy 5 where with the Maxx only 4 because i have one as a spare
