    I liked them on all of my vehicles. The only reason I was looking at the 285/75R16's was for looks, nothing more.
    I had the Cooper Discoverer S/T's on my F350, they were good, sold the truck before I wore them out.
    I ran BF Goodrich KM2's on my Jeep TJ and Hilux, both lasted for a couple of years. I sold the set off my Hilux when I went to 37's for $300.00

    What do you think/have you heard about the Cooper ST Maxx? Seems like they have gotten pretty popular the last couple years.

    The local tire shop owner praised them, said that is the only tire he runs on his rigs.

    That’s pretty positive sounding. I’ll definitely keep those in mind

    Added a PrinSu Design cab rack and used it as a mounting point for my limb savers.

    They push tree branches out of the way when exploring the woods. Hopefully keeping your windscreen from getting cracked.

    Where did you get that gauge holder on the a pillar? I found this one - not sure if it's the best bang for the buck:

    I got the compressor mounted, front air fitting installed and all of the plumbing done.
    I mounted the air filter behind the driver side rear tail light.
    All I have left is the wiring, still waiting on the switch.
