Are the comparable to stock on the highway?

Hey Alan,

Yes you are correct and I've been pleased so far with the Coopers. We don't have much snow/ice here in Fl but they have been great in the rain. On the way back from Tellico we hit heavy rain for quite a while and they were still extremely stable at 75-80 mph.

They ride great, my buddy even commented about the smooth ride. Road noise is more than the AT's but not bad and nothing the radio can't cure.

Lookin' forward to wheelin' again!

Can anyone post a picture of their's with BFG AT 37 12.5 17s?

[Alan06SUT]

Ok Marinehawk, you almost have me convinced on the Coopers. Do you have air on your truck? Are yours 12.50's or 13.50's? And, is there a noticable diffreance in road noise from the stock Mall Terrains?

My Mall terrains are hurting at the moment. I bet they are at lest 3/4" shorter than when new.

[Alan06SUT]

Nevermind on the noise, I just reread your post!

Mall
Hall
Ball Terrains. Bwaaahhaaaahaaaaaa


Alan, I was going to ask you: What shape are your AT's in? If they aren't bad: keep the AT's for winter and the new MT's for Summer and Wheelin. If that's even a consideration, not sure, but thought I would mention it.

Good Idea. I will definatley hold on to them. They are about 1/2 done I'd say.

They are labelled as 37" x 12.5"; however, Cooper's specs list their section width as 13.1". I have the air and no problems yet.

Then you probably haven't wheeled hard enough. With those meaty tires, at 13" you're gonna snap one of those eventually.

Get ready to order. If your truck is an '03-'04:
- The left sensor is part no. #15187825,
- The right sensor is part no. #15124930


(Thanks to NoMompg for that part number info)

Would wheels with an inch less backspacing solve that concern?

i would pose the same question.

Hawk, have you taken any blows to the suspension parts that get exposed from low back spacing rims (mine are, i think, 1.5 or 2" less than stock)?

i'm kind of worried about that - the stuff that was tucked into the wheel is now out a bit...

I would think so. I know it significantly decrease the rubbing (4.5 space) like on Adam's rig.
