Cooper ST Maxx

[D45]

Good or bad?

My Duratracs have 55,000 miles on them and will need replacing soon

Found a nice used set for only $400

Excellent.

Should do everything your DT's do, but Maxx's are built on the same carcass as the STT's. More durable.

Been running the Maxx's (285/75/17) on my 15 CTD Ram 2500. Have over 35,000 miles on them, they handle the weight of the heavy diesel, balance very well and are wearing extremely well. When worn I will be replacing them with the same.

I have been running 12.5x37 ST MAXX's on my 2012 JKUR for a couple of years now. Much better on-road manners than the BFG KM2's that I was previously running and I have never felt like they let me down off-road.

I have run 255/85/16's on the last couple of rigs including my heavy 1970 Burb, never an issue, held up through 30k of hard rock and highway.
Currently have the same size on my 2017 taco with Treehouse popup camper, also holding up great.

How are they on snowy / icy roads?

Great. I have run them in 285/75-17 and 315/70-17 and they do great on Jk wranglers.

I love my ST Maax on my Land Cruiser. Great combination of all terrain aggressiveness, road manners, and longevity. I'd want to know the date code on the used tires before offering an opinion.

They have similar siping to a duratrac, they’re also studdable.

Probably my next set of tires.

March 2019 date code......5,000 miles on them

It's a great deal......i am going to buy them, don't want to spend more money on my junk truck

Fantastic tires. Been running them on multiple trucks for years now... heavy towing rig and recreational rig. Not sure we’ve ever had a flat...knocks on wood... figured you would have traded that sucker in by now!

I'm running duratrac's now and have been pretty happy with them. Are the Coopers severe snow service-rated like the Duratracs?

 

[D45]

........ figured you would have traded that sucker in by now!

I want to , but I also have been given very very very low trade in value on it

I'm not willing to let it go for 17k

I am going to throw tires on it and sell it next summer when it's paid off

 

[Todd780]

They are M+S rated but don't seem to have any specific declarations about "severe" snow. To me they performed well in snow and ice even in 2wd. But they're also pretty noisy for a not-quite-mud tire. I didn't choose to go with the same tire again when those reached the end of their life.

Just out of curiosity, what drove your decision to switch? Anything in particular?

Better than my old KO2s in every way! 255/80/17
