[QUOTE="pirate air, post: 2676, member: 27"] I haven't seen any bad review about the generals. All the reviews I have seen have been good praises, but their also done by magazines. I don't put full trust in magazine reviews, and none of the reviews have been long term, which is to be expected. The only person I've heard talk about them is the guy from SDHQ over on the Z. He said he preferred the toyo m/t's over them, but no reasoning why. As for winter, The coopers are a popular tire around here (as well as any goodyear). A guy I work with runs the exact same tire on a jeep and says they do good during the winter for what they are (a mud tire). The interweb user reviews seem to be mixed on winter traction for the stt. So I think some professional "traction test doughnuts" may be in order to compare before and after results of some "strategically" hand placed sipes...... If I get them. The guy at the tire store said he runs siped stt in the winter on his truck (and liked), but he was kinda of a tool, and wanted a mortgage payment on his prices, so F his opinion. The goodyears..... Three guys I work with run multiple sets of the old style mtr (a sami, a jeep, and a few 4 runners) and they never shut up about how great those tire do in any condition. The new ones are supposed to have quite a bit better wet traction than the old ones. I also haven't found one bad review about them in winter conditions and noticed a few people using them on their snow plow trucks. Also the tool at the tire store said the goodyears would do better than the siped cooper stt's in the winter. So....... there it tis [/QUOTE]
