    That is a sweet set up, and I think its been posted since November(maybe even longer). The price hasn't dropped on it, despite it being on CL for so long. Maybe they aren't willing to haggle. :notsure:

    Got rid of the ST Maxx's last night. Went down a size to 32's in the Toyo AT2 C rated, wow what a difference in weight. Feels like I got a HP boost, they don't have that sexy look of the 285's but I couldn't stand the shaking from those heavy pigs. Will have to get some updated pics soon, will be wrapping the caps door panels with matte black as well.

    You sure it wasn't a balancing issue?

    Surprised to hear you had issues. Several Alabama folks (Including one that travels a good bit for work) have 285/75r16 ST Maxx and couldnt be happier. Could be a balancing issue as @BYJOSHCOOK mentioned.

    The ones I had were garbage, lots of run out had them re-balanced twice and moved around on the corners to see if I could get rid of the shake. They also pulled to the right no matter where they were positioned, final straw was them rubbing on my UCA's so I put 3/4" spacers up front, this just lead to massive rubbing on the cab mounts. Not ready to cut up my truck, so opted for the lighter smaller tire. Just driving to work today on the same roads I drive everyday the Toyos are smooth and have no pull to them, also the weight savings and smaller diameter makes a big difference in performance.

    Maybe someday I will try a 33" again but for now these will have to do.

    I'm trying to decide if 33's are next or If I want to wait until I can do glass fenders and gears and make the jump to 35's. I want to avoid having the cab mounts cut and welded more than once if I possibly can.

    I have had the LT265/75s C-rated AT2s for about 45k miles now. Have been real happy with them.

    I don't think I'll choose them again next go round though mainly due to price.

    I got mine for $155 Tire, don't think thats too bad at all. Of course still gotta pay to get em mounted/balanced.

    Check out 255/85/16s if you are looking into 33s. I’ve been running them for a few months, I don’t even need to do any cutting.

    I'm on method nv 17's now. Looked at my 31's other day turning the wheel back and forth with the tire guy and it looks like I have room for 285's.

    I’m not super happy with my 255/80r17 st maxx either. LOVE them off-road but the pull on road sucks, should get them road force balanced and prolly solve the issue..

    My next tires I’m between Falken Wildpeak and KO2s, gonna go 285/75r17
