Stt pro or stt maxx

Looking at getting 295 70 18 can you post pics who ever runs these and comment on them please

 

@Grey Wolf runs both

 

Where is he at when you need him.....lol

 

Im enjoying my St maxx in 295/70/18 That have been great all round in the few thousand miles I have had them. Got them for $200 each through DTD eBay deal so that makes them even better

 

Running in 35s, quiet on highway

 

How are they noise wise and handling

 

At the same time! We call him “double dually”

 

I'm undecided on what to do on switching tires American tire will give me 700.00 for my toyo at2s 275 65 18 that have 1000 miles on .....I want a 295 70 18 but wanted ridge grapplers but price is 1400.00 they can give me a good deal on st maxx and st pro for way cheaper ....I do not do off road much my truck is daily driver and put 35 miles round trip daily can you guys help me decide

 

Definitely get the St Maxx compared to the Pro if you are worried about noise. Mine handle great and I drive it pretty aggressively. Noise is not a factor at this point.

 

How do those balance?

 

No issues with mine and I haven't heard of anybody else having issues. I am a research freak about my purchases and am thoroughly happy with these.

 

Very good price and seen some reviews only thing I don't like is side wall doesn't seem very aggressive that's why i like the ridge grapplers and toyo rt and st pro.....but don't like the price on the ridge its around 311.00 per tire

 

Nice wheels by the way ......wish I would have known about scs wheels and icon before i purchased the black rhino glamis

 

Not aggressive enough? I thought the Ridge grapplers looked too busy, too much sidewall crap for me, but thats my opinion.

 

Well that pic looks better.......not bad

 

Did you have to do any trimming

 

Yep had to trim and still rub a little but I can deal with it. If I take off mudflaps from the front I won't rub anymore but I want the protection. I have 2.5 lift up front.

 

Body mount chop?

 

Cooper makes great tires IMO. I ran the STT Pro and was amazed with it's toughness and good street manners. I would recommend the the maxx for your driving.

 

The ST Maxx's are an outstanding hybrid AT. Not loud at all. Tread design allows you to cover lots of terrain and little to no hydroplaning. Had them a year now. Tire wear not bad at all. The STT Pro M/T's will get you anywhere. Not great on ice/ thin snow packed pavement. Who cares! Not what I got them for. Much better than my Nitto Trail Grappler M/T's by far. Do what I did. Go with both!

 

With that size do you have to do any kind of programmer or re gearing?

 

295/70/18. No need to re-gear. 34.5" Bully Dog would be a plus though.

 

The bully dog really helps with the 3rd gen 'cause the throttle response is really retarded compared to my '07.

 

I think will be getting these in Monday but more reviews would still be great

 

The STT and Maxx's both have Armor-Tek 3 ply side walls. So far no major chipping or breaking off tread rubber when wheeling in the rough stuff.

 

Yeah I'm just really doing it for the stance and looks compared to my brand new 275 65 18 Toyo at2 I just hope ride quality doesn't go the negative way by switching

 

In my experience, ride quality suffers due to the weight of the larger tires. I thought the quality of ride with the Cooper's was about as good as it could be given the size of the tire.

 

I need to look at weight difference from what I have now to the stt maxx 295 70 18 and compare

 

I have load range E which can be a bit stiff. You need to find the air pressure sweet spot.

 

Stt maxx are 10lbs more per tire
