    Are people finding the ST Maxx is shorter than the competitors 255 size?

    Well Cooper's specifications for the tire actually put it at being shorter than a 285/75r16. Like 32.7 or something. And once you put the weight of the truck on them, it's even shorter, naturally.

    The reason I say this is because there are only 3 sizes on TireCrawler that are on backorder. Both 255/80r17 and 255/85r16, and also 315/70r17. The 255/80r17 specs on Cooper are also rather short.

    maybe I should go back to KM2. Loved those tires and got some pretty good wear out of them. I drive the slab quite a bit and figured the ST Maxx would be a good compromise when considering road noise.

    The sidewall lugs come in handy, they get more use than the main tread on the trails

    You guys are making really want these tires. I have an 06 trd dbl cab and been running 275/65/16 bfg's on stock wheels. I thought the bfg's were awful on wet and snowy roads. Hoping these would be better. Should I stick with the same size?

    I hated my BFG's in the rain and snow as well. I've had very very little use in snow so far but felt great the 10 miles or so I did drive in it. I think they will do very well. A narrower tire would be better for snowy roads

    Got the tires put on over the weekend. I like them so far had to remove the front flaps they rubbed while turning but it's all good not as narrow as I thought they would be but they are Def taller than my 265's

    These tires are amazing. They are a little heavy but 3 ply sidewall is great. Just got back from Lake Tahoe past weekend. On street tire pressure, I was plowing through snow. I'm running 285/75/16
