Thanks!
So far I have put about 10k on the tires. The road noise is still minimal. I hear some tires start howling after being worn down a bit, given 10k isn't much mileage, they are still smooth and quiet. No chunking to report. I will post up some more pics in a couple days to show their "wear and tear" if you will. Good luck with the decision, I recommend the STT's!

Trimming?
Wondering if you've trimmed your fender yet and if so how it went, how it looks and how you did it. I just got the same tires as you installed. They tried it with the 1.5 wheel spacers and it rubbed WAY too much so we opted to go without for now. But they still had to do major trimming to fit the 285 Coopers. No rubbing except for the "A" arm when I turn full crank. Was wondering if yours did the same or if the wheel spacer eliminated that issue. So Im stuck in the middle - Spacer and cut fender or no spacer and rub A bar...??? Ideas or tips?

brett682 - CONGRATS! I hope you like the Coopers as much as I do. Doesn't look bad either with the whitewalls face out.
With the spidertrax spacers installed, I opted to cut half of my inner fenderwells (plastic lining) out on the front side. I also used my dremmel to shave off a section of my front bumper. This eliminated the rubbing on both the corner of the front bumper, the lining AND the A-arm
I know I keep promising pics so I will post them tonight.
If you want, I'm off next Tues/Wed. If you need help with the work let me know and maybe we can meet up.

I HEART them!
Yeah, I love them, changed the whole look. My brother says it looks like its ready for battle.
Thanks for the offer. I got a whollotta crap going on right now. BUT when I get back in steady waters I will def look you up and get some help trimming it up a bit. Gotta get those spacers on - Totally dig the look and don't feel good about rubbing that A bar.
Peas*
