    I'm torn between the two. I know they are the near exactly the same tire. Same construction, materials and factory. Just looking for those with personal experience between the two or if you like the looks of one more than the other to help push me towards more one than the other.

    Two totally different tires, the stmaxx have different rubber compounds, and different sidewall construction which is more puncture resistant as well as the tire carcass is stronger.. but both are good tires, either would be great, I have st maxx on my truck and love them.

    I really love my st maxx. I have them in 255/80r17 and they're only $185 shipped, which is dirt cheap IMO.

    cant speak for these specific tires per se, but I went through 2 different sets through the years of Cooper Zeon LTZs and I LOVED them, so I'll probably go with the ST MAXX based on positive previous experience when I need some new rubber. Plus they look awesome
