Right on... I was just checking out those tires. The only thing I wish Cooper would do differently is have more lip protection for the wheel. My BFG KMs have a ton - they absolutely bury the lip of the wheel so there's not chance (or the least amount possible anyway) of rim damage... whereas the ONE Wild Country MTX (Cooper mud claw) I have hardly has any lip protection.

Other than that, I love coopers. They're a great tire. I'm really happy with the Wild Country I have and I the Cooper Cobras that were on the jeep when I got it were actually a pretty tough tire too.

 

Big day today!

These tires are now just a memory to my Jeep. They served me well with well over 50k miles and still 30% of their tread left:



My new tires are 33x12.50r15 Cooper Discoverer STT Pro on 15x10 Cragar V5 wheels:

 

Looks great bro.

 

Now I've got some new center caps, which are actually made for a Jeep Cherokee. I think they look much better being silver on black:

 

nice i like those caps a lot better. i painted mine red, but i may switch to black so theyre subtle

 

Are those tires a little smaller than the last ones?

 

They're the same size, but actually significantly bigger because of the bigger tread.

 

Really, must have just been the camera angle that made me think that.

 

LOL>...... dude, this is what I was trying to say in your facebook message to me... I like the look of the older style caps... aka THIS -

vs. the dome style caps you had on it AKA this -



.... looks better with the 15x10s

 

Thanks for the clarification lol!

Thanks man!

 

that new tread design looks killer

 

How did tires balance out? I have a set just waiting for new wheels to come in the mail.

 

Can you measure with a tape measure the height of the front tire with the jeeps weight on in? I'm curious how close they actually measure to as advertised. If you could post a pic of it measured that would be even better.

The stock jeep caps look great on there btw.

I'm set on these tires for my next set but I want to know how they measure vs as advertised. My KM2's are supposed to be 34.8" they are 315/75/16s which is basically a metric 35". I measured mine the other day and they measure 33.5"

If the coopers measure small too I may go one size bigger.

 

Thanks man! I wasn't sure what tire I wanted. I didn't even know these existed. But I saw them and it was an instant "I WANT!"

They're balanced. Seems to ride really smooth.

Thanks man, yeah I'll get some measurements for you tomorrow, or whenever it stops raining lol

 

On the vehicle's weight, they're 31.5 inches tall from pavement to top of tread. Sorry I couldn't get a picture. It has been torrential downpour in Florida here for a whole week with no end in sight.
