No they have an ST model on there site.
Looks a little like the BF AT's

Looking at the STT also,but my local tire shop did not recomend since it is my
DD. and sees very little offroading.

DD with the STT's very quiet M/T....but I have heard good things about the ST model (Coopers All-terrain tire) as well..... I like the more aggressive look of the Mud Tire STT's and for a DD tire they passed the wife and kid's noise test on pavement!!!and have worn very well and have great traction in snow, mud, rocks...but not so great on ice.

I ran 33x12.50R15 ST on my old cherokee. They are some of the best A/T tires I've used. Very good in the snow and moderate mud. When the mud starts to become clay, thats when they start clogging up. Quiet and sticky on tarmac too.

I highly recommend them (or BFG AT).

I ran them back when I had my Tacoma. Probably the best all terrain tire I have ever used, hands down. Very aggressive but not loud on the highway. Also had great wet weather traction.

I still have some pictures on my old webshots album if you want them.

Thanks guys.
I still would prefer the STT.
If I get the ST in 18" they are a Load range of E
If I get the STT in 18" they are a load range of C
I would thing that the STT in range C would ride softer,but they are also 50.00
more a tire.
I'm guessing it still would be worth getting the STT a much nicer tire
