What tires do you run? Needing new tires
« on: October 05, 2019, 08:03:14 am »
So my tires are running out of life. I currently run Cooper STT PRO.... I like them but they wear down badly causing unnecessary vibration. Is there a better brand that does not wear uneven as bad?!

BFG KM3s are awesome, that's what was on Amy's Jeep before we sold it. They cost a bit more, but you get what you pay for!  I had great luck with STT Pros myself, a good second choice.

I haven't had trouble with my SST Pros. The K3 might do better when you are driving highway miles.

I am currently running the KM3s as well. I haven't had a chance to take them out on the trail yet but I am digging them on the road. They are fairly quiet.  Before that I had Goodyear Fierce Attitudes and I loved them, but they don't make them for 16" rims in 35s anymore from what I can find.

You can also go talk to the folks at discount tires. If you go to the store on 96 ask for Paul if you go Watson store ask for Chad. Tell em your with the WRJC they will give you great advice and prices.  I run the STT pro and rotate often. If I get to much noise I know they are out of balance and bring em in to get re balanced. As others said the KM3 and also the Goodyear MTR are also a great choice.
