    They ride smooth. There is a slight mud tire hum to them, but I’ve run louder mud tires before. Hardly any weight to balance them either. Now we’ll see the longevity of them!

    So far, they are great on the road. I’m ready to go wheeling!

    So my pics suck.
    But I’ll get some better ones.
    Truck is dirty and so are the tires.
    Snow this am and some rain later.
    I see what you say about the blue wall.

    I just looked and I have no weights on any of the 4 wheels.
    She ran smooth at 65 +\-
    Pretty happy so far and they were actually cheap.

    I'm loving mine so far. I drive pretty far, to and from work, 5 days a week. They ride very nice at 70mph. Very anxious to take them offroad! What pressure are you running? When tires are warmed up, my fronts are 36 and the rears are 32. Makes a perfect contact patch for my truck.

    So I didn’t really do much after they dropped it off. A quick trip on the interstate and bang around town some.
    Cleaned the blue off this am.
    They don’t have rim protection like the duratracs or kos had, not that I need it.
    All tires are at 36 cold.
    We had snow again this am.
    Crappy out today sold the duratracs closed the truck away in the garage and called it.
    Glad I pulled the trigger when I did.
    They jumped $60 each since.
    I’m happy with mine also not loud at all.
    They are more aggressive than I need but I have dedicated winters.
    So they will just be a summer set up,
    Like having a divers watch in case I get it wet doing dish’s.

    I tagged you in a post I made when I first looked at the coopers.
    Someone was asking how they compare to the Cooper pros.
    I do very little wheeling tires are overkill for me.
    I could be driving driving a Prius and saving money also. :cheers:

    I ran 2 sets of the old Cooper STTs, but never the newer STT Pros. They look like a very solid tire.

    I gotta say they behave well for the street and cornering. I thought I could feel the lugs twist and roll at first.
    1st day back to work or should I say night 3rd shift sucks. But they are paying very well so??
    25 miles each way ran the interstate which I usually avoid. Road rage shit and I get better mpg on the secondary roads.
    I probably won’t post anything about how they are off road but, they leave wicked black marks.
    Handled some on ramp twists well and also took a few mpg from my 2.7 5speed.
    Their price has gone up to where they are just a little cheaper than the pros?
    Happy with my purchase hope they hold up well. Thinking I’ll have to rotate more often.
    I was 5-6 k meant I’d rotate summers when they went on and the same with the winters.
    We shall see how they wear but I’m thinking
    3k so they don’t cup.
    Cheers man.

    I wanna go do the other side of the GA Traverse too! Not something we can do on 5 days notice though, so let's hit the other side of the slab again!

    My Jeep buddy wants me to show him around there, let's go!
