Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hi , new to the scene, have a GQ & am running 33X12.5 15 on sunraysia rims, and am seriously due for new tread, have been looking a the new Cooper STT's and Cooper ST's? Is anyone driving on them or does anyone have any comments pls, i am 60% road/40% off, mainly dirt/mud/rock-no sand as yet..need more long service for that..maybe nxt yr..
Am open to suggestions for offrd tyres,
also tow an off rd camper most trips.
Thanks.

I've had both, no problems with either, but I honestly don't know why anybody would buy S/Ts any more. I think the STTs are better off-road, excellent on-road, and if they're noisier I haven't noticed.

The only potential downside of the STTs is longevity - I got exceptional wear from the S/Ts, and Im not yet sure the STTs will last as well.

Now, get ready for people to extoll the virtues of others: BFG muds, MT/Rs, Claws, Simex, Kumhos, Nankang, Sumitomos... What have I missed?

MTRs

same replies as in nissan forum

I ran the new Bridgestone Duellers on my MQ and I reckon they a great tyre very very low road noise and great off road as well, they rated highly (3rd overall I think) in the 4x4 Monthly mag late last year when they did a extensive tyre test.

If you want a copy of the test I copy it for you and mail it out, just let me know.

A mate of mine just baught a set of STT's (33x12.5) and they are great.
He lives in Rockhampton and drives 500km's each way to work every 4 days, he also does alot of trips to Townsville (7 hrs) and inbetween all that, drives off road with them.
I will be buying a set myself shortly, as the old STT's that i have are nearly dead.
Just for the record, the mine sites are extremely hard on tyres and most 4x4's are either running ST's or MTR's i havent seen many with STT's yet.
Hope this helps, Carl

Yeah, I am working up at the mine-sites and running ST-Cs I have noticed everyone up here in a Cruiser or the nissan thing have either the ST, ST-C or MTRs

just my 2c worth

the question was stt's or st's yes or no???? yes......

stt, i'm running a 2nd hand set from ryano at fourbies marooka and am very supprised at how quiet they are..... the only obvious reason against is wear and since getting a gu a few months ago i have done over 20 000 and am pleasantly supprised with wear rates and not many would do more kms than me as am an all of qld rep i think the decision is simply

stt's
