the buckshots are only built in certian sizes and i do know they don't build a 18" one..
with only a $60 price difference between the Toyo and STT's,go with the Toyos and have a proven tire..

As I look at the pics (no personal experience whatsover) I like these characteristics about the Coopers (1) The sipes do not run the lull length of the lugs. (2) The sidewalls on the Coopers have more edges (if for rock,i would change my opinion) (3) The Coopers
appear to have less of a ledge on the innermost part of the sidewall...I would think that they would be less likely to have trapped mud when going back to the main roadway.
Again no personal experience on these particular tires , just observation.

One item that cannot be seen in the pics that I always look for is the depth of the bead,
that is ,will the wheel sit flush with the tire or will the wheel edge be subject to abuse and damage,(especially when aired down) Years ago,Bridgestone off road tires had a very shallow bead.

Man if you can get the Toyo's for that price then go with those....I have heard nothing but good things about them.......the STT is a good tire, but that seems a little high for those...

I just put on my second set of the Toyo M/T's. It is the only tire I will run. They are the only tire I could get 40,000+ miles (on an 8000# pickup). I do also have them siped. I have had them in the sand (had to pull a 2wheel drive dodge out). Snow, mud, and everything in between. I have not found a beter all around tire. Just my

The Wrangler MTR looks very similar to the ones you have posted. I dont know how they actually perform but they look good.

The BFG king mudder is a great tire also. I have no experience with the two you listed, but I do know many people running the BFG. They wear good and are relatively quiet on the road.
