Just an fyi, Cooper is now owned by Goodyear and they are made in china. Lots of problems with cracking around the beads in the last year or so. I was a die-hard Cooper fan but no more.
 
Ahhh...was not aware of that...may change my plans...damn...so back to the drawing board! Thanks for the info!

I am probably going with Toyo Open country A/T III's once my new truck arrives. My new truck is a dually and I do not want the Nexens on there any longer than they have to be.
 
Allllrighty then...how bout some Mickey's...315x70x17s...will they fit on stock rim?

I knew Cooper sold but I did not realize all truck tires where made in China, yuck. I thought they still made some light truck tires here ie LT's. Hopefully not all the Micky Thompson's are made in china. that would totally sux. That said I much prefer Toyos anyway. most all their truck tires are made here altho some are made in japan which is 100X better than china. I had Toyo at3's in 35's on my jeep and a great tire but prefer RT's on a heavier vehicle.

Gave Mickeys a call this a.m....verified made in U.S....wouldnt tell me where...Stopped and looked @ Cooper tires going on tumor o..."Made in U.S.A." stamped right on 'em...if I end up not liking size, i'll wear 'em out n replace with 315s etc...Can see the sun beginning to come out after starting out under clouds...(metaphor)...Crusty, I dont feel so much like Rumplestilskin now!
 
Well...they filled the wheelwells a bit, not wild about the tread, was expecting something with more of a lug ...oh well...back to Rumplestilskin...20220603_150136.jpg
