I have a buddy that has the 35's on his lifted Rubi, no complaints from him. They have a similar tread pattern to the Toyo MT, siped lugs for good road traction in rain snow and ice, although I hear if you do a lot of driving on rocks the sipes raise the posiblity of chunking. They are good tire at a fair price, I'll probably get the 37's once I burn through the Toyo's I have now. As far as fitment, I'm running 37x13.5x17 on stock wheels, with the 'green' t-bar keys turned to level out the truck I get some light scrubbing on the frame at full lock. I haven't wheeled too hard with them but didn't notice much rubbing when I was out tooling around in fields during hunting season.

I've got the 37" STT Coopers on stock rims. LOVE THEM!!

They're great in the snow and mud and not too loud for an MT. They wear well also. If you do a search on "37s", "STT" and "Cooper" that should pull up some threads on them. It was a few threads on here that convinced me to go that route and I have zero regrets. On my second set now. Will replace with the same after that.

Had 35s on my ex Jeep ZJ. Just bought another set for the Hummer (37s). Fantastic tires. Great traction in all conditions, and not loud at all. Way better than the stupid MTRs I had on my Wrangler (37s). Those were a pain to balance and did not drive well.

WOW that looks great, what size are those 37's?

I have a set of 5 (37's) in my garage right now. I am just waiting on my Mickey Thompson Classic Locks in Black.

By the way my H2 looks almost exactly like yours Indy!

The STT's are 37x12.5
Yeah, put your 37s on there asap! Will make a huge difference :beerchug:
I assume you've also got a yellow one then? :p

Still waiting for my wheels:(

Yep mine is also Yellow - Hope to get those wheels and tires on there within the next few weeks, we will see.

M/T says they will be shipping the end of this month
