    It's not bad at all. I'd guess the RTT is about 160, I've put it on and off by hand my myself a couple times, the racks and Diamondback are all aluminum so they are light, maybe 50# total. Top of the tent is right at the roof line to doesnt catch any wind and doesnt raise center of gravity too much. Was more of a pain in the ass when I had on a Camper Shell.

    get an alignment ASAP. You’ll screw up those tires real quick. Ask me how I know.

    Looks great!

    Be interested to hear your thought on them after awhile, between how heavy they were and how bad they pull to the side, I wouldn't have another set. @SearArtist are you going to get ST Maxx again?

    hell no. I didn’t like them after 30k miles. They became unbearable and they are too sensitive to alignment.

    I’m not sure what I’ll do when these Milestars wear out.

    In the limited driving ive done. They dont *feel* that much heavier. But i drive like an old man so well see. There 100x more quiet than the toyo at2's they replaced. No pulling. Nothing weird at all so far. Maybe being a skinny makes the difference? Idk.

    I couldnt get the at2's to align worth a damn. And after 10k miles started wearing weird and got noisy as hell. These coopers cant be worse than those toyos.

    Man I had the exact opposite experience. I've had two sets of the ST Maxx ( took one in trade) in 255/80R17, and they were super heavy (58#) and pulled bad. Also were much louder than the Toyo AT2s in the same size that I am running now. I think these are going on the T4R though and I'm going to order the new AT3s for the Taco. I test fit them the other day, going to take a lot of trimming to run 33s on the T4R and not rub.

    Built2Ride is bringing it up since he has a house just north of Asheville. I’ll probably run up and grab it. Should fit in the bed of my truck since it’s only 56x48”

    Looks good man! Worked with Jacob for several years. Gave that life up to set my own schedule and spend more time with the kiddos.

    IMG_3053.jpg Also willing to sell my rear Fox 2.0 shocks for 400-450 (I want to get kings to match the front). They were tuned by Accutune and I think I have a tune left with them if you need the service down the road I could help you out. I have a roost guard also you can have for free. They are on the truck now, about 5k Miles on them. Will ship for free or meet locally.
