Any comments on the Cooper S/Ts. They seem to be getting a pretty good rap all round.

Also interested in comments on Procomp Muds.

I had Cooper ST, which were a POS. When the spin they tear the side lugs off. Great for road or light trail work but even Vic High Country will tear them up. These were not bad in the mud though for what they are.

I now have warranty STT's which seem ok. They are noisy and vibrate at low speeds, but they seem pretty good and hangon well when they should. This said I wont replace them with another set of Coopers. I saw a brief comparision between the STT and the Baja Radial Claw, where the STT came out ahead. These tyres have been worked had at time and show damage from it. I suspect anytyre would though. Mud they are good, but I've never had these ones on sand.

Thanks for the info Slunie. It's good to get a balanced view.

Sounds like the muds are the go.

I will see how the loan BFG muds go for now, I might stick with them for road / fun use.
