I second this statement. I have a buddy, very experienced off-roader in a tricked-out 4th gen, and he said that was the closest he ever came to sliding and dying on a trail. I've never tried it, and never will (in my 5th gen, anyway).

Safelite They are hit or miss for me. The glass they use (mine was labeled Pilkington) isn't bad, but the install was definitely not great. Had a small whistle at speeds over 75mph that drove me crazy. Luckily, had another rock jump up and smash that one (I'm on my 3rd replacement windshield...

I've been running the KO2s (285's, load rating E) since Thanksgiving, had some long highway trips, and some recent experience in ice/snow. I think they do fine in the wet, predictable grip but you can break them free if you really try. Good road manners, very little hum. Feel solid, but then...

Probably I have Toytec BOSS coilovers set to 2.5", and even with a fender liner mod, I still had to trim some body panels fore and aft in the front wheel wells. Still rubs in the back. Will need a body mount chop to get full relief.

I have to say, i'm very happy with my OPOR sliders. Did the install all by myself, in about 30 minutes.

FWIW, I got my Boss coilovers this summer, and they had 2 rings as well.

Seems like the 4WP was giving them some problems, but it was working OK with me. I think the guy I was on the phone with at DT just got tired of waiting, and went by the link to my 4WP shopping cart that I had sent the night before. Threw in some new wheels, and delivery estimated by the...

I agree with the balancing issue. I loved everything else about my A/T3's, except for that. Which is why I'm going BFG KO2 this next go around.

I've been seriously looking at this: http://nrajottogear.gojotto.com/nra-handgun-by-jotto-desk.html Seems like a lot of money for what it is, though. And not as secure as a vault. But at least you'll still have access to the rest of that space.

Yeah, I liked the Coopers, they were alright. Kinda tough to balance. Fairly good tread life. Good in snow. Just nothing about them wow'ed me. I've had BFGs before, nothing but good luck with them. And I think the KO2 has a badass sidewall.

C should be fine. I have Cooper AT/3's (275s) at load range C, and have put them through the ringer. They've held up fine. Never felt I was "under-tired". Haha, is that even a phrase? ETA: I'm leaning strongly towards the KO2 for my next set. Should be coming up pretty soon, too. I wish...

Been towing a similar camper (1999 Coleman Santa Fe) for a few years without tranny cooler. No problems yet.

More info Do you offroad? Do you want to look badass in the mall parking lot? These are questions we'll need answered.

Nice looking rig. Mind posting a head-on photo, of the stance width? I'm likely getting this same tire/rim combo in October. Did you go with the -10 or 0 offset wheel?

OK then Thanks everyone for the valuable input. Looks like what I've been reading about the Geolandar's poor treadlife and wet weather performance has been confirmed by a few of you guys. Thanks for that. Guess I'll be sticking with Coopers for my next set. ETA: mahdits, I hear you on the...
