    Mastercraft? Still not ready to go back to Cooper. The grip was awesome, just didn't like the other issues I had with them (and I'm pretty easy on tires overall).

    Fuck, my E rated Michelins are awesome. I'll buy this exact tire until they stop making it, which is hopefully never. They really help with towing the boat. And they have 45k miles on them and barely look different then when they were first installed. Spendy though.

    I actually like the tires that came on this Ford. Absolutely hated the Michelins my last one had and got rid of them quick, but this came with Hankook Dynapro AT2s. They're quiet, look reasonably aggressive, and the traction in the rain and on loose roads has been awesome. If they hold up for a decent amount of miles (which is usually my struggle), I may even buy a new set when it comes time to replace them. I used to have Dynapro ATMs on my Tacoma and liked them other that they got super loud as they wore.

    I don't think they'll do great in snow with no mountain/snowflake rating, but I bough 18" OEM wheels and sensors and am probably going to pick up some Nokians for winter use.

    Yup, I use mine all year round, and they have great traction!
    Edit: I have 45k miles on mine, and they are at 9/32s, so about half worn down.

    That's always what I've wanted for a second vehicle, but they're usually beat up or way too expensive to justify. That looks awesome and the price is very reasonable! Hope it works out for you.

    Raptors have climbed higher than that now-days. $55k is more than I paid for my truck though, no way I'd have that kind of money dumped into an Exploder. What's interesting is it doesn't have a unique engine either, you can get the same engine in the Platinum but that one is pushing $60k...

    Well that sucks, but is to be expected. I looked at probably 20 first gens and 15 FJ's before buying the ones that I did.
