Well the 315's were short lived, I bought them used but with low miles and they cleaned up beautifully. The tires had been sitting but didn't look to have been affected. Had them installed and the balance was bad, had them balanced again, balance was still bad, 3rd times the charm... and a phone call stating one of the tires was starting to seperate in the tread and the other may soon follow. Dang I though I just covered almost 500 miles with those I'm glad nothing happened, oh execpt on a 156 mile return trip home with crappy unbalanced tires my alternator decided to give out and keep me from putting any more miles on the tires (Divine intervention? you be the judge). I called around and found a set of 295's (previous size for 2 sets totalling just over 100K) $986 installed through a Goodyear Dealer.

that sucks man.. My 35s will be needing to replaced by the end of the summer. Don't know what I'm gonna go yet. Right now I'm favoring the super swamper radial irok non directionals in a 315.

Saw those and do like them, the KM2's are becoming cheaper, the Interco SSR in the 285 size (33.9" diameter) would fit the bill and might last longer than the Irok. Hankook has an interesting MT, the Cooper STT has always been a favorite and has more favorable siping than the Toyo MT.

I keep hearing nothing but good things regarding those Hankook Mt's and even being somewhat better than KM2's depending on your use from a lot of guys on TTORA. What do you guys think about the TRXUS mt's. They seem a bit more tame than the radial irok but still aggressive

I've heard of good reviews from the hankook mt's, but not necessary built for what I do. That and I absolutely dislike the style of the pattern and sidewall. The trxus mt is a badass tir3 with good on road manners. The irok radials being right behind them, mainly cus the on road manner.

I'm not very happy with the 315 Cooper STTs I had. They did very good in the snow, but the compound is too soft for 4wheeling IMO. I chunked the lugs every single time my truck went on the dirt. I felt more sure-footed with my 255 Bighorns when they had 50% tread on them than I did with brand new STTs. Also the 315 STTs run a lot smaller than I thought they would - about 34" with the weight of my truck on them.
I decided get the Goodyear MT/Rs w/ kevlar in 315 and they are a true 35" tire. The STTs still have 90-95% tread left (apart from some torn lugs) so I figured I would sell them while I can still get decent money for them. I'm not hating on them, but since someone suggested the STTs, I thought I'd give my experience with them. The MT/Rs are friggin awesome! And I got them for $1100 shipped from discounttiredirect.com (after a couple rebates).

I don't have em mounted yet. I tried to do it today, but I got stuck painting my gf's bathroom instead, lol. I'll post some pics on my build when I get em on. Hopefully monday.
BTW, if anyone in SoCal is interested, I was gonna put the Cooper STTs (315/75/16) up on CL for $900 for all 4, but I'll do $800 for a T4R member. They aren't chunked bad yet, I noticed early on and haven't wheeled hard with them in a while (been really busy lately). They will still be excellent off road tires for 95% of people, I just notice a difference in coumpound compared to other tires I've gotten used to. They were amazing in the snow! The MT/Rs aren't a gamble for me because J-money runs them as well as a few other locals and they all love them. And I do the same type of wheeling as them so I'm sure I'll love em too! The STTs have 95% tread, they only have 3k miles on them. PM me if you're interested..

My rear tires were getting caught on the inner fenders at full stuff.
I was dragging the rear a lil bit to get over this.
But after some more love from the BFH all is well and it stuffs in clean now.
I haven't had any issues with the driver's floorboard like on the pass side, so that's all that's left for the hungry hammer.
More pics here Floridian lost in Texas
