Need a 2nd Opinion

[TheBlueKJ]

I'm deciding on which tire to get. The Hankook DynaPro ATMs or these Cooper AT/3s
Also which size tire I should get 245/75/16 or 245/70? I'm getting Ironman springs and Bilstein shocks with no extras at the start.

I don't know much about Ironman springs but with 2+ inches of lift you should be able to fit 245/75/16's no problem. 245/70/16 will look to small and you will wish you had gotten 245/75's.

As for the tires, I really really like my DynaPro ATm's. Awesome tire for the money. Never really liked all terrain tires but these have won me over so far. Still no MT but I haven't had any traction issues in any conditions I have experienced so far. Ride quality is far superior to MT's though.

That looks pretty good. How much rubbing did you have?

I have Dynapros. Got em for $130 a pop and haven't regretted the price since. I will warn you: they are a relatively LOUD tire, but that's what you get with aggressive treaded tires. I always have my music up, so I hardly care. And even when I hear it, I like the noise,

Other than that, they ride smooth, and grip well in all situations. Treadwear has been nonexistant in about 17k miles.

Ok so 2 for the dynapros. Anyone have any opinions bout the Coopers?

My brother-in-law has them on his Ram 2500. At 6,000 miles they were half gone. Seems to be a relatively soft tire. Never ran them on the jeep though.

Wow. That is pretty bad..

Granted it is a heavy diesel, but he tows nothing with it. Just normal driving.

But still that's terrible tire wear.

 

[LetFreedomRing]

I agree.

 

[dude1116]

Could have been too heavy a tire for a full size...? I'm telling you: mine look BRAND new after 17k miles.

Could be. Although they were 10 ply tires. Which is recommended for the truck.

I have Cooper AT(not3) and tread life is not great.

 

[TheBlueKJ]

Alright so DynaPros it is! I'm pretty sure the general consensus here is that the Coopers have terrible tread life.

I think they are really quiet. I have only ran MT's up until these turrs though, so my experience might be slanted.

There is certain limit of lifting the car, upto which it should not be lifted otherwise the suspension will be less and ultimately the Springs could be brake.
And some good quality tyres are following
yokohama, Dunloop, Bridgestone . etc

Huh? :uhoh2:
