Cooper STT Pro

Did you regear? Feel a powerloss?

 

No regear.. that’ll be in the future. No power loss. I have a Pedal commander which is on a City +1..

 

They do tend to get louder as they wear, but still less so than KM2s did, at least

 

Very Nice Jay15 - So just to confirm, the spacing on your rims avoided the need for spacers?
Unfortunately, I don't think I have that option. But I'm not too worried about a set of spacers. I was thinking about making the rear more stout stance as well.
Def. leaning towards those Coopers. Thanks again for pics!

 

Love my STT Pro's. Went with 295/70/17 on -38 offset.

 

yup, thats what i heard. so i plan to sound deaden the tacoma soon.

 

That is correct, wont need spacers for the backspacing on the rims and tire setup.. not a problem glad to help!

 

damn looks cherry! how is the ride? did you have to CMC or trimming? hows is you mpg?

 

Ride is great, they absorb everything on the road. These actually track straight while driving unlike the Yokohamas I had.

Definitely took some work to make them fit. Had to get an aggressive CMC, alignment to adjust the caster and some minor cutting / a lot of molding with a heat gun. This is with 5100's in the front set on the highest preload, stock springs.

Can't give an accurate estimate on mileage since I still haven't had it calibrated. Can't be worst than 16 with tires and lift. I have a manual and find it's much more pleasurable to drive if I just keep the mileage readout hidden lol.

 

I have 2008 Toyota Tacoma I’m in between the AT3 cooper or the stt pro 315 75 16 what would you go with and why

 

those are two different animals....the AT3s are All-Terrains and the STT Pros are Mud-Terrains

The tire for you depends on what kind of driving you're going to do

 

I do mid level trailing nothing like rock crawling or anything like that I have the Ko2 285 75 16 and they are trash

 

why don't you like the KO2s? Just curious....

Check out the Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx. They’re a hybrid MT/AT that wear well and aren’t too noisy:

I skipped the KO2s in favor of the Cooper ST Maxx because I’ve read over and over that after about 30k miles the KO2s aren’t great in the wet, especially heavy rain (hydroplaning conditions). A few guys said they were fine (bit of a mixed bag really) but enough said they weren’t for me to shop around. I can say I'd buy the Coopers again now that I’ve had them.

 

Yeah they do bad in wet rain

 

How do they do in dry rain?

 

I have the STT Pros with 14,000 miles on them. I like everything about them except the noise

 

Like that commercial on TV............"You're going to like the way you look"...lol. Love that tire and Cooper is still the last American owned tire company in the states I think. I would still buy them because they held out for so long.

So I first wanna say that I'm in love with these tires!!! I've had mine on for awhile now but as soon as they hit snow.... holy crap do they slip. What other Cooper tire would be better in snow? Thanks.

 

The AT3 4S would be an AT but will be better on-road in the snow
