Well...it looks like my quest for new tires is over, and the Cooper Zeon LTZ has been beat out by these babies:









These are the Mastercraft Courser CT in 275/60/20, and the dealer I was asking about these was good enough to email be pics of the actual tires I'd be getting. I just spoke with Cooper about these tires, and they hav 980 SETS of this tire in this size on backorder, and they don't know when they'll be available again!

On looks alone, I'm leaning toward this tire now because it looks to be quite a bit more aggressive than the LTZ, and I really dig the tread pattern. Looks kinda like an old school design between an AT and an MT.

 

Here is a pic of this tire's brother (Cooper Discoverer ST) in the same size mounted on a rim:

Friends an neighbors....THAT is a cool looking tire!

 

I really like those tires

 

Does look pretty sweet.

 

I thought they looked pretty dang sweet too. All the pics I'd seen of them before today were of smaller tires, and they didn't look NEARLY as cool as the 20's.

Can't believe I'm saying this, but I think these look better than the Zeon LTZ.

 

i ran a set of 265/70/17 of the mastercraft c/t on an 03 fx4 and those tires were pretty sweet here in CO. Great compromise between an AT and a MT tire

 

Nokian Vativas have a pretty agressive tread pattern.
