Sweet!! That's good to hear. I know my next tires now lol. Can't wait to see it with the new headlights. Those recons a fugly lmao

They make a little road noise but they ride good. Better than my Nitto TG's did. I'm running 50psi in them so far, I think that's where ill keep it. Just need to try loading the bed and try a trailer to see how they do there too.

Yeah those Recon's ain't my cup of tea. I remember we discussed that earlier in the thread. They are going bye bye lol. Color matched Harley's with Cree LED's FTW

NICE! How do they ride? Can we see a couple more from the side perspectives, like looking straight down the side from the front or back?

I was thinking of that same tire from Toyo, in that same size, because my 12.50's aren't enough but I hate the idea flares. Is there a need for those God awful things, do you feel??

They ride great, better than my Old Nitto's. They also have a 45,000 Mile tread life warranty direct from Toyo. Which is nice. Flares on my setup aren't needed imo. Then again laws around here, nobody cares. I work in down town Columbus, OH everyday. Cops don't care here. I live in Boondock nowhere Ohio. Cops don't care here or anywhere around here really.

Ill get some more pictures later today if i can.

Ohio is pretty slack on every law except DUI and speeding 10+ over. Never had a front plate on any vehicle my entire life and move to Chicago and got a ticket for no front plate in my 1st 15min stop for food... MFers!!!

NICE!!! I have to decide on which Toyo model now; do I want the R/T (looks to be a promising new model) or just bite the bullet and go M/T (awesome profile and performance)...

I've owned both. I want more miles on these before I give a fair opinion but so far the quietness, tread warranty, 13.50 width, and better looking pattern has me sold on these R/Ts

Yeah, I am leaning toward the same exact setup over the Toyo M/T, because either way, as I stated once before on another thread, these Cooper ST Maxx 35/12.50/20's are shooting rocks everywhere when coming off the beaches or rocky driveways and my insurance company is well aware that they have a Ford Super Duty on my policy, not an Urban Assault vehicle.

I hear you there. I do have offset with these 10 wides (-24) so I'm seeing how bad it will fling mud and rocks down my side....so far not too bad. I work construction management and spend a lot of time in mud and rocks and crappy jobsie conditions. Plus the truck will see fields and farmland on weekends too. I guess I'll see

Ummmm...its the law in IL. Have to have two plates. Have to be on the vehicle too.

Its a bit better in the rural areas but Chiraq or the suburbs, you'll get busted.

Yea it's a big difference from mud tires. Main reason I went to A/Ts. Plus the ride is more gooder lol. And yes we had a discussion on them. Looking forward to seeing it with the new headlights on it.
