New tire option for 22's!

[NWI Denali]

Just put these on today. Love em! Not overly loud for how aggressive looking they are. The lugs are pretty deep, 16/32", and the sidewall is so much more aggressive looking than the terra grapplers. They are P rated too, not load range E which I am happy with.

Those look good. How do they perform in the rain? I have G2s on, I like them though they can sometimes not have great rain traction. I put then on at 31.5k and am now at 100.5k, and still have plenty of tread.

They are fine in the rain. Having noticed anything squirrely. They did really good in the snow too I was happy with that. They have pretty good siping. I was torn between the g2's and these cooper's. I wanted the 285/50s for the extra inch. But the tread pattern on these coopers is way more aggressive and looks better. I didn't feel like the extra 100 dollars a tire was worth it for the g2s

Appreciate your feedback. I also wanted to ask if you noticed any reduction in mpg. Also, how is the road noise, I heard they create a fair amount. They look great on your truck. I am also looking for something cheaper than the G2s. But I would buy them again, given the life I got out of this current set.

Mileage loss is kinda hard to tell, because I got the tires right when we started switching over to winter gas. But they are heavier, 50 lbs vs my oem Bridgestones that were 40 lbs. I would say I lost 1.5 mpg.

 

They howl a little bit from 40-55mph. But then from 60-80, they actually quiet down and are only marginally louder than stock. It's mind boggling how they can run so quiet on the freeway with how aggressive the lugs are. I would buy them again 100%, and I am one who wouldn't be able to tolerate loud mud tires like Trail Grapplers.

Good to know. My Terra Grapplers are pretty quiet. I run highway mainly, 25-30k per year. This may be my next set of tires in the Spring. Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.
