    looks = subjective < function = objective

    Only "downside" to the 255s for most applications is there are not a lot of tread patterns to choose from. Especially if you need a siped AT.

    Looks also = irrelevant when sacrificing function is in question IMO.

    Tires need to be picked for intended performance, not looks. So many people in this town in particular run giant Mud Terrains on their spacer/block lifted full size trucks and literally drive on either pavement or snow/ice year around . . . Who wants a MT for snow and ice? people who want to fit a look.

    Never had any problems on the dry stuff.
    The MPGs are from before I got the sliders & full set of skids. I'll find out this summer what the extra weight does to my MPGs

    That is the downside. Not many to choose from. But good news from Cooper.

    And I've never had problems on the wet stuff. That's not what I said though. And u def got some lower numbers to look forward to. Shouldnt be too bad of a drop though, u still have your aero dynamics intact

    This is precisely why I chose a 4-cyl Tacoma. For a 16 year old boy, speed = no good so a 4-banger with a 5-speed and 33's is exactly what the Dr. ordered. :D
