The search function is not all that bad, but the company that designed this forum platform did not dump a million dollars into the search engine like Google or Yahoo. It just takes some practice. I posted this before maybe this will help...

When you do a search do not just search titles. Search the entire post with your key words. If you want to know what tires fit with stock lift type in the box: lift+tires+stock+size and check the box that says search entire post. This will bring allot of threads that have nothing to do with your search in the titles per say but with a little bit of reading you will find what you are looking for. If you try and search the titles it dosent work all that great. This is a stock forum base that is used all over the net just with different topics and the search is the same on all of them...

I was in the same boat.. I couldnt find Jack about these tires till i looked them up on google... Not only are they cheap but alot of folks say they are the best thing since sliced bread...(kinda threw that in for a kick) I seen them all over the net but no dealers close to me had any to really see.... I hate buying stuff I have no clue what it looks like in person... So when I went to Carlisle a few weeks ago there was a truck that had 305-50-20's on it and I am sold... Im prolly gonna go for the LT305-55-20's... Tread pattern was good and looked like it could do some offroading.. I found 2 sites with em for a good price. tires.com and treadepot.com...

I just bought Cooper Zeons from treadepot.com a couple weeks ago. They were $140 a tire then looks like they have went up $6 since then. I tried to get Discount tire to price match and they stated they would call me back and let me know if they would and I never heard back from them. Even with paying $76 for shipping I saved over $200 buying tires through treadepot vs. discount tire. The best thing is I ordered them at about 7 P.M. on a Tuesday and paid for standard shipping and they were at my house by Thursday.

Good deal!!! ^^^^

Cooper Zeon LTZ's have been on my truck for 4kmi. They make Zero noise. They do Excellent in the rain. Excellent on dry roads. Very good in snow. Good on ice. Excellent in dry dirt and stone. Okay in mud (my experience was clay though??)
I have ridden on several tires and this tire by far exceeds many others especially for the price.
Almost zero treadwear as 4kmi and i tow alot and take corners sometimes hard. Barley any shoulder wear at all.
The tire is a firmer ride than the stock HP crap that's on there..(car tire really)


On road driver mostly get the Coopers. Offroad mostly get the Nitto's. Nitto's will wear faster on pavement...Much...
