    Boost, armor, lights, big tires, no savings.
    Comparing a tires snow traction seems nearly impossible. Are we talking first snow fall of the year, with the roads still warm? Is there hard pack under 6 inches of powder. Is it deep slush? Is it glazed ice after a fine sleet, or crunchy, rough ice? Is it the truck with the same load, same driver, same time of day, are you in a rush... Do you drive in the ruts, of ride the high parts of the road? On and on. I think we can only speak "in general."

    Personally, the new KO2 tires are an okay tire. There are many better tires out there, & I will not buy them again. They look fine, so if you want something that looks good going to the mall, they are hard to beat. Off roading in the desert, they offer middle of the pack traction and control. One of the bad things about them, that I can not stand, is the fact that they pick up and keep every little tiny rock they drive over. After one trip off road, and driving down the street to my house, my Jeep sounds like Michael J Fox walking down a hallway with tap dancing shoes on. And it takes forever trying to get all the little tiny rocks out of all the little tiny cracks in the stupid tires.

    I'm running a OME lift and I'd like to install the Cooper STT Pros, but I'm debating going 285/75/16 or 265/75/16. Is anyone running 285's without rubbing?

    Need wheels or spacers to clear the control arms. 285's will rub the cab mount

    285/75 is way bigger than 265/75

    You'll be ok there then, I think. But 285 will still hit cab mount depending on the exact tire you use

    Someone correct me if I am wrong but isn't the STT Pro considered a mud terrain tires? Where the KO2 is an all terrain?
    Not a fair comparison if thats the case. I'd say ST Maxx vs KO2 is a better comparison.
    I'll be going with ST Maxx when mine comes in. Fuck KO2s, they're overrated
