Need some help. Been running Hancock mt's on my truck with great performance on and off the road.
Got to get another set of mt's and have narrowed my choice between Hancock and cooper.

What say yall?

Got 2 trucks, need 2 sets. Need a good hwy tire but am off road more than on it seems.

I'm leaning Hancock. Figured I'd get yalls opinion. Hadn't completely ruled out 1 of each

Needing opinions on the cooper mt's. Concerning hwy miles

Nitto Trail Grapplers. Not the mud grappler or terra grappler, but Trail Grappler. More aggressive than an AT, and not as noisy as a MT. 20,000 miles on mine, and at least 90% tread left.

Cooper Discoverer ST in 10 ply. Little pricey but fewer flats and more miles. Do every thing you need to do off road

What he said. Im running my first set of trail grapplers and love them I have 30000 miles and a lot of tread. Ride better than any Ive had with less noise. Second would be the hankook mt. It outlasted any mt I ran before and I believe they are 10 ply.

Get a Kelly TSR. Last tire you'll ever buy, great on and off road, and can get plenty of miles out of them.

Nitto Terra Grappler is my choice of tire. Great all-terrain, but needs normal rotation to not become noisy as with most any all-terrain tire.

Our local dealer sells toyo 2 to 1 atleast in an MT followed by firestone destination. I ran the hankook seems I remember its 10 ply I know the Atm2 were, but I was please with them also. I priced a set of 285 17 inch rim and there wasnt hardly a hundred dollar difference in the toyo. When you get 45k or so on a 3/4 ton running alot of gravel that says something. Hell you put them on a dodge half ton it will outlast the motor.
