i have an 02 with the 5.9l. 265/70R17. i just put the cooper discoverer st's on mine. 6ply. absolutely love em. mines 4x4 n when locked in i can go anywhere. i tested em on a back dirt road the other day goin up a hill. pretty well snow covered. made it all the way up in 2wd. very impressed with the tires.

Having worn out several sets of the Discover S/T, I have gone to a dedicated winter tire, the Firestone Winterforce UV, with studs, at about half the cost of the Discover S/T. On the other hand, the Discover S/T is a tremendous year round traction tire.
BTW, when the S/T were new, there were far better on ice and snow, 30k miles has reduced their off road traction quite a bit.

i dont have studs in mine. n i have heard these tires do lose a little bit of there traction after a while. but ive also heard that they work amazing for the whole life of the tire, according to the guys out on the gas fields. but ive wanted a set of these tires forever now. n finally got the money for em. i absolutely love em. best tire ive ever had so far.
