    Finally someone did a video on this in snow! Bought a set of 265/60/18 a year ago with 20k miles on them now. These rugged Treks did a fantastic job in dry/wet/dirt/mud but have not tested it in deep snow or icy. Thanks for the video!

      We’ve gotten about 42”s of snow here in Anchorage in the last 11 days. Drove my 2nd generation Frontier threw at least 14” of snow with no problem. I haven’t spun out yet, or get stuck.

    Tried them very loud and mpg was horrible. Switched to cooper road and trail and they were awesome. 23 z71 rst Silverado duramax.

    I have these tires on my Silverado, I live in rural Michigan off a dirt road. These tires have been excellent in rain, loose snow and packed snow. A slight hum on the dry pavement which I don't mind at all. Goodyear now owns Cooper.

    Good looking tire, looking at either these or a new set of Goodyear duratracs, love the duratracs but sometimes wanting a little more aggressive traction without a full mud tire. Thanks for posting!

    Winter season is here. Some good questions below need some answering if you don’t mind? MPG go down? How were they on ice after a couple years? Did you end up trying them in sand and mud? About to pull the trigger but don’t want to affect mpg to much

    Living in northeast Tennessee I might buy these Cooper tires so I can go off roaring up I'm the Cherokee national forest/ in Pisgah national forest in western nd and down in the smoky mountain national park and in nantahala national forest down by Murphy, nc.
    We did not get any snowfall this past winter in the tri cities area ( brustol_johnson city and kungsport) so I am a little hesitant to buy too aggressive of mud terrain tires to do the daily driving in northeast Tennessee with the couple of road trips east to Richmond and Alexandria, va areas to visit with my son and daughter. Just would not want to hear the louder noise of M/T tires.

    I appreciate your videos. I have a 2022 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off Road and the GoodYear Wrangler Kevlar Territoy ATs suck ass!! Rotated every 5000 miles and they are going to be toasted by 30,000 miles. I ordered some Cooper Rugged Trek 265 70 R16 which are stock sizes and hope they are awesome. I have had the Discoverer AT34S on other trucks and they were great.

    I wish they made my size in a 10 ply 120 load index. Have the Mickey Thompson Baja boss at and these things grip in everything. Just heavy compared to other 10 ply tires ive ran and pick up rocks a ridiculous amount of rocks. Had toyo at3s previously and at the time they didn't come in a e load so I had to get a xl 6 ply 117 load index. They did phenomenal as well except muddy situations. Didnt pick up hardly any rocks. I try to keep it a pavement princess. I work in construction as an electrician. Just wanted something more aggressive and could handle the extra weight better. I may try toyo at3 again since they make them in 10 ply now unless cooper decides to make the rugged treks in a 10 ply 120 load index. 275/55r20.
    Took the toyos off at 70k miles with 6/32 left out of 13/32
    Baja boss at I currently have 14/32 left with 40k miles on them. Came with 18/32
