I need new tires. I know the go to tires on here are the Toyo's and Nitto's...but I want something that's a little lighter due to my highway driving and not wanting to lose any power getting this heavy pig moving.

I want a MT tire that's fairly light weight (no Toyo and/or Nitto) and that's going to last. My truck is almost two years old and I've 45k miles...the stock BFG's have treated me well, but they're horrible in the slop and mud when it comes time for hunting season.

I'm looking at the Cooper STT's but I can't find any weights on them. For some reason, I thought there were lighter than the Toyo's, but I can't seem to find them listed anywhere.

Here's what I'm looking at...Your suggestions/comments?

These are going to go on a set of Method 17x8.5" 0mm offsest, machined with black lip.

For winter tires, I'm going to mount some Duratracks on the stock rims.

So far I am pleased with my Mastercraft MTX 37x12.5 17s. They handled Rausch Creek pretty well (Rausch Creek grows rocks). Some smell chew marks but not as bad as I thought. Next event is Ohio HITH3. Pretty quiet tire and the ride is smooth.
