    I kind of want an m/t. But I don't want a load range E. Goodyear MTRs come in a 255/75r17. Load range C. It's a 32.3x10. Wonder how bad it would rub stock height

    I've been eyeballing the Cooper STT Pros since they came out but most of their tires are load range E. Even their 265/75r16 doesn't come in a C

    The STT Pros are awesome. I would have bought them but like you, I run load range C on the Jeep.

    They weigh 54 lbs a tire. I wonder what the difference in weight is for my current tires

    Well the duratrac weighs 42 lbs in my size. So I'm assuming the Authority weighs the same or similar. I wonder what an extra 12 lbs a tire would do on my truck

    Agree heavy. Idk how they're lame... Ride good for a must tire, do well in sand, and mud. They hardly wear on a Toyota. But I'm sure you have experience with them to back up your statement

    Because they're heavy, and expensive. Therefore, lame.

    ^^^^^

    And they're so stiff. That's what I don't like about them.

    I'm sorry you pay for what you get. If I can spend a couple extra hundred dollars and my tires last me a couple extra years, I'm good with that.
    Now there's an actual observation instead of saying they're lame. They are stiff cause they're not meant to air down. I mean, they're thick tires, mine being 10 ply. But that means they're tough also.

    Unless you're driving the Baja 1000 or towing 15,000 lbs on a daily basis, I don't think they're really necessary.

    Talking about E rated tires?

    You get what you pay for.

    I'll never put P rated tires on a truck again after splitting a sidewall on a fucking pothole.

    Having tires that last 40-50k+ isn't necessary? Well, at least I don't have to worry about my sidewall being gashed by a rock.
