    The Cooper AT3 4S has the mountain snowflake rating, but it is an SL tire.

    I didn't want an LT tire due to the extra weight. I'm on paved roads 90% of the time.

    Nice.
    Not sure it will have enough void for my driveway. Not really much improved over the factory stuff.
    To he honest, the Wildpeaks are marginal....but, better than stock.

    It would be a better investment to get gravel/traprock, etc.... but....

    I had Michelin Primacy XCs on my F-150 from the factory. They were really more of a highway all season than an all terrain, wasn't impressed with them at all.

    The oil filter housing. The dealer must have cranked it down. I was doing the oil change at home and this SOB wouldn't budge with an 18" 1/2 breaker bar. I broke the oil filter cup wrench. Traveled to get a new wrench, remove it in the lot and one of the ears snapped off leaking oil.

    I had similar issues with Cooper AT3’s on my Tacoma, couldn’t stop the vibes and they kept feathering. That, coupled with an early failure on the ATRs I had before them (which were warranties by Cooper and the reason I ended up with the AT3s to begin with), i’m over Cooper tires. Their winter traction was awesome, but not worth the trade off. On my 3rd set of Michelin AT2s and love the tires. They have great grip, quiet and wear very well.

    That's why I pay someone to deal with changing the oil on the wife's T4R. Fuck dealing with that stupid thing and taking off 300 bolts and skid plates to get to it.

    Dude it's seriously no fun to deal with the plastic housing. Hopefully the metal one is better for removal, the skid access door is a nice option...
