    I took off an air dam once
    Lol im about 5-7k miles in and i love these. I still get 20+ mpg and they look aggressive. Road noise isnt bad at all, small howl at 75-80 mph but nothing terrible.

    Mostly commenting to hear a long term review also of snow and rain, but I would say mountain peaks because the knife blades would be different directions depending on the side which would bother me.

    Knife blade, Coopers are underrated tires. They look great as well

    Same here. The large blocks in the center are normally not good for slick conditions. Will be interested in how they actually perform

    Yeah I want to see how they compare to ridge grapplers, which is what I have currently.

    I've had these tires predominantly in dry conditions, however the times that we've had wet weather, I've not had a single issue with wheel spin or loss of traction. I'm coming off of KO2's, which are arguably one of the worst tires in the rain. Granted, the KO2's were 31.6" diameter and these are 33" diameter, so the loss of power may be partially to blame.

    Regardless, I've been very happy with the tires thus far and would not hesitate to rebuy them.

    My tires (mickey thompson atz p3) have a very similar tread pattern, and most likely composition as well considering both are made by cooper, and they have been great in all conditions so far. Rugged treks have more siping and have the 3 mountain peak rating so they should be superior in inclement weather.

    I'm not sure the RT's are 3-peak rated... at least not in my size. You may be thinking the MT Baja Boss AT's.

    Also, I'm convinced the 3-peak rating is marketing wank. No way KO2's have better snow traction.

    I also noticed that you chose a photo of your tire being wider than mine... Typical Wreckless... always trying to cast doubt on my girth.
