Had a set of Cooper Discover ST/Ts put on my Summer rims the other day. Also installed a set of tie rod sleeves that I built using Yaz's drawing.

Sweet looking tires man! I too would like to how loud they are. Those are some of my favorite tires along with the BFG AT KO's. And the BFG's are pretty good on road noise. So I would like to compare.
 
I haven't driven on them much because I haven't been to the alignment shop yet. Was suppose to Friday but one of the main cables for the lift broke but from what little I have driven them in town it's not bad. Mostly when I slow down for a stop sign. Hopefully they get me in today so I can get out on the highway and see how they do.
 
Now those tires are Mikey approved. . .
Thank goodness they wern't BFG AT's. . .yike. . .Radail MT's best why to go. . .

I'm running 7.50-16 Power king super tractions that came on my 6.5-T !

Had them out on the highway for the first time today. You can tell that they are on the truck but it's not horrible. I was still able to carry on a conversation with my passenger while the radio was on.
 
That's great to hear...

Tho if you can't drowned out the passenger they aint for me !

I rarely transport another person...

When I do I don't care to hear there whining !

I really enjoy tire hum so ill stick with my traction tires n grip tires n swampers and so along...

Here is a question. What do you think the best PSI to run the tires at is? Right now I have 55psi front and rear. The truck seems to want to walk a little after I got the tires on and it aligned. Should I let some air go in the front?
