New Tires for Truck
Posted by jimbeam on 6/4/15 at 1:14 pm01
Here's the deal. About 63k miles ago bought a pair of all terrains for my rear axle. Paid I think $175 installed. Heck of a deal if you ask me. I think they're on their last leg and I'm looking at getting a new pair.
Looking at the following
Mastercraft MXT
Cooper ST
Cooper STT
$150-180/tire
Opinions? Really don't want to spend more than that but I also still want to keep a little bite as I'm only 2wd.
ETA: I'm looking on tread depot. Any other site suggestions are welcome.

I just put four Firestone Destination AT's on my King Ranch. They ride like highway tires but did well in the mud last week. I recommend em!

35x12.50 buckshots in that case - old school cool. Rooster tail slinger.

There are a few on Ebay that are new production, I don't know who is making them. There was an internet rumor that Gateway was going to start making them again.
re: New Tires for TruckPosted by Hammertime on 6/4/15 at 3:02 pm to jimbeam
Maxxis still makes them. They were some flexible, good tires. The only thing with a similar pattern that was better was the original BFG MT
re: New Tires for TruckPosted by White Bear on 6/4/15 at 3:27 pm to Hammertime
Yeah I've run several sets of the Maxxis buckshot tires and had good luck in general - I did have one blow out on me (slowly) though in 2010, that's the last set I've run.
The one's I'm talking about on ebay are like the old co-op grip spurs.

Just put a set of 285/75/16 BFG KO2 on my 3/4 4x4 suburban and they ride great. Smooth on the road, but pretty aggressive tread for AT. He'll of a deal through local shop here in BR that price matched a Internet price. $1,100 and change out the door

I probably have only seen 3 different ones on the road each year since they've been out. I typically wouldn't miss one either. Id say that's pretty rare

I'm only going by what I've seen and I've seen a lot of them, but I've been a surveyor and so was my dad and they were the preferred vehicle since the mid 70's for that particular occupation.
