Re: Toyo M/T's < Cooper STT?? In Mud w/ pics...
cool thread.
i've seen M/T tires fail on hills that look quite a bit like that (and which shouldn't be a big deal), and its left me a bit perplexed as well. I've also been the beneficiary of being "first in line" up a muddy hill... :P But if you said it didn't change much then...
i'll have to also take another peek at le coopus tirimus

Re: Toyo M/T's < Cooper STT?? In Mud w/ pics...
I have found that the STTs provide a ridiculously good grip in mud and on wet rock. On my old truck I used to air down my MTRs as far as reasonable to get as much traction as possible. I usually offroad the STTs at 22 PSI because I get plenty of traction at that pressure and would rather have the extra clearance.
I was a little apprehensive about buying them when I did because of the lack of track record back then, but in the size I have, I would pay a little more for them than for any other tire. The fact that they are actually cheaper makes it an easy call for me.

Phil- There was lots and lots of spinning going on, but that type of mud just didnt want to come out of his tires. The coopers released it better.
The driver seemed like he knew what he was do and I think he may have been a little dissapointed in his tires. I should have attemped the hill again after he went to prove this but I didn't!
Ken- Its a sweet little place and its close!
