I agree with your thinking. I drive a 99 4runner that is modified, and I have been running 255/85r16 tires for 3 years. In my opinion, I think it the perfect size for this vehicle. I am currently running Maxxis Bighorn, and have been mostly happy with them. My 4runner is not my daily driver (so...
This is good news. Thanks for posting. I think they are a little lighter than STMax as well?
Do you air down when on trail? If so how well does the sidewall flex over objects?
I think I am getting very close to pulling the trigger on set.

I have been interested in the Mastercraft Courser CXT for some time, and see little to no mention of them on the interwebs (or locally for that matter). For me it seems like the perfect tire. Fairly light for size (compared to others in same size), good tread compound, good tread pattern and...
Congrats on the new job. Good luck.
Regarding your transmission, maybe I missed it, but why did you have to have it rebuilt? Any chance you had Marlin Crawler rebuild it? If not who did you use? I'm asking because mine is need of some TLC, and while I am comfortable turning wrenches on my rig...
I also love these old Toyota's. Two of my best friends each had one. One had a white 92, and the other had the exact truck pictured (without the shell). We shot a lot of critters and caught a lot of fish using those trucks to get us to our 'honey holes'.
Like you, those trucks are what started...
Sorry to hear about your setbacks. Once done, it will all be worth it tho. Gonna be a great rig.
Good luck. Keep us updated as we root you on from afar...
I love that panoramic pic...
Clutch, I appreciate your practicality. I have a 99' 4runner with 225k. I have to put $ into every year, for example I will be replacing my LCA bushings this weekend. I enjoy 'wrenching' on it. It always gets me where I want to go and back home. Like you, I'm always...
Have you looked at or considered the Mastercraft Courser CXT? It is similar to your Cooper STT Maxx, and is offered in 255/85R16. They have a 2 ply sidewall, and are a couple pounds lighter per tire, which may be good for your tacoma. Mastercraft tires are made by Cooper tire co.
I am strongly...
James,
I would love to hear an update on the MasterCraft courser CXT. I read your attached article, and I have owned the courser CT in the past and I really liked that tire.
The CXT is on the very top of my list of soon to be, next tires, and would really appreciate your updated review of...
Addison,
As stated before, this will be the best looking, well built, 4th gen on the road...IMO. I love the wheels, tires and stance! Oh and the color!
It looks awesome! Great work.

@cdthiker, thanks for taking the time to write this review. This is very useful information, that will be helpful to many. It's threads like this that make this forum great.
BTW, I live in Nampa, work in Boise and McCall is one of my favorite towns in Idaho. You live in 'God's country', I'm...
Monte, thanks for taking the time to post the 'amazing' photos and trip report. Very much appreciated.
I'm impatiently waiting for the final chapters...:ylsmoke:
