Cooper is probably the most under rated tire on the market for long wear. I've always been a big fan of Coopers. Had a set of STT's on a 97 F-150 back years ago when I was young and dumb and drove Fords....

Mine ate BFG AT's and Rugged Trail's after 12 months and around 15K to 20K in 265/70R17 E and the Firestone Transporter got about the same mileage. I will say the Transporter's suprised me on logging roads. General Ameictrac or whatever they are called sucked and so have the Nitro CrossTrek or whatever they are called disappointed in those two really badly.

Bump back up. I'm needing tires for my new tow rig. Can't decide between AT and MT. Did you ever decide on a tire?
I'm pretty sure I'm going Toyo. 285 75 on a dually is what I'm looking at.

Re:
285s on a dually will require some spacers between the rears.
Most people run 235/85 or 255/85 if they want a taller dually tire

I'm close to 40k with nitto trail grapplers without any complaints. Rotate them very often.

I bought the Fred's spacers already and have 235/85s. Working on the cognito arms and bilsteins.
I just discovered the bad tire. I don't DD this truck so I'm not scrambling to fix, but plan to order tires and arms this week.

I'd vote against the Toyo M/T for a 3/4 ton. I've ran a set on a 1/2 ton and loved them. Ran them on my Duramax and not impressed at all. I went with the Toyo R/T (mix between A/T and M/T) on this last set and have only had them for a week but I'm thinking I'll really like them. Quieter and a much smoother ride than the M/T.

Tire guy showed me those. He is pricing me the AT, MT, and RT. Said he is having some trouble getting the RT. I searched a little on them..didn't see a 285 tho.

I have had the Toyo RT's for several months now. By far my favorite tires. I'll never run another set of "mud" style tires on my tow rig

275/65-18 Nitto TG G2s on my 2500hd love them. Rotate every other oil change.

Put the 295/70/17's on my previous 2012 Dodge 3500 SRW. Nice tires but were a little loose with my long and heavy camper in tow. I'm sure that was due to the deep tread and not the sidewalls though. Some jerk ran my wife off the road in that truck and did a ton of body damage to it so I traded it for a 2014 Dodge 3500 SRW. It's got stock tires right now but I plan to either go with the Nitto G2's or Toyo AT 2's this time.

Ok, finally got most my parts and got tire prices. Think I've talked myself out of Toyo MT. The RT isn't offered in 285 75 16, so that's out. It's between Toyo AT2 (dont have extremes in my size either) or Cooper ST Max. The max is kinda like the Toyo RT.
Cost is not enough to worry about. So.....any feedback on the Coopers? I have the Toyo AT on my daily and they are fine. Just looking for something more aggressive looking. The max appears to be a good in between.

I'm getting close to needing a set of my 15 Super Duty too. So many good tires out there to choose from...... Thanks for all the feedback in this thread so far.
Tempting to get the new BFG A/T. But I've had 5 sets of the BFG AT over the years. Holding then throwing rocks would be my biggest complaint about them.
I'm actually thinking Toyo AT this go around. 295/65/20, not much too choose from.
