I just purchased the cooper stt 33s. Great tire so far. Great in the mud and not too noisy on the highway.

As far as the moto metals go, if you are going to wheel, stay away. I had a friend who had them on his chevy and they did not hold up worth anything and were a waste of money. He would only play in the mud and did no rock crawling and all the powder coat was flaking off and the rim was scratched beyond no other. They were from the factory and trashed within 3 months. I am taking about open field/power line mud riding, nothing serious at all. Just my experience that I have seen from a close friend...

Which rim do you like better? You don't need help, you just need to decide. Not crappin on you, just saying...
