Go to page 11 black trail boss is mine, someone else uploaded them for me. Fit with no rub 

I really like the thread on them.   I found a set for $899.64. They where 305/70/18.  $250 dollars cheaper than the nittos.

The nittos will not have an "MT" look, that you mentioned you wanted. the ridge grapplers would though, but are more $$$.

 

Falken is a great tire, but I have no experience with the MT01. There's not a lot of reviews to make a solid decision on them either.

How’s the ride. Smooth. No wobble?  They balance ok?

Yeah I like them, I was concerned on the weight of each tire. As aggressive as they look they are not that heavy.

I'm doing some research (slow day at work) and I honestly think the mastercrafts are one of the lightest MT tires out. There are very few aggressive tires in a 295/70/18 less than 65lbs.

 

Just have to find a local vendor now.

The 305/70/18 mastercraft i found is 66 pounds.  Just scared of buying something and it shaking when I get up to 70 because of a balance issue.

Get the Mastercraft. Same tire carcass made in the same plant with different tread and names on the side. 

 

 

I’d be amazed if they did shake. They’ll do the mud tire rumble and roar compared to an AT or less aggressive tire but they’re quality Cooper stuff.

I was considering both when I was looking at tires, I bought them online though some website, paid a little under 900 for all 4. Then I sold my duratracs on fb marketplace for 400, I only had 8k on them. The weight difference between the stt and mxt was why I went with the mxt, the stt has that triple side wall reinforcement. I don’t rock crawl so I didn’t need that, and that also adds to the weight of the tire. I drive very hard and have about 8k on the mxt, I can barley tell I’ve driven them. I think they are pretty quite. I’m excited to see how they do this winter.

I got you guys. Still have the pics saved on my phone cuz this are the tires I want when I wear out my duratracs. 295/70r18 only 62lbs plus a great price.

Has anyone put the 305/70r18 on stock trail boss? My 295/70r18 barley clear, don’t know if the 305/70 would rub... ?

I had 35x12.50x18 and really didn’t have any rubbing. 

 

I ordered the mastercrafts in 305/70/18.  There a little smaller than the 35s. So I think(hope) I’ll be alright

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
