PICS WITH 295/75/16's!

That's so funny that you said that. I don't know who makes it, but I just took it off this past weekend. Feel free to send me a PM if you want it.
It was on the truck when I bought it, and I have no intentions of mounting lights on it, so I finally got off my butt and took it off.

I've been on a tire hunt for a few months and still haven't decided.
My '99 came with 245's, I removed them quick and have been running 285/75/16 tires ever since. Due to my apparent affliction with large knobby mud tires I have been getting about 15,000 from a set. Just burned up an expensive set of Cooper STT's in 15,000 miles. I am done with that and looking for a AT this time. Been looking at the Goodyear Silent Armor with a 50,000 tread wear warranty. Firestone Destination AT and a few others but don't really like any. I want a AT tire with a modern road tire tread with those cool rain grooves. I am only planning on running this set in the warm months. Falken makes one, rated at 3,305# and in a LT285/75/16 size. BUT a tire made in Japan on my truck...I don't think so.
Also like the Geolander H/T-S.
Like the looks of the TOYO Open Country A/T, BUT...a problem there.
Can't have a tire that almost says TOYOTA. TOYO AT...too close. NO offense to anyone that has them, I'm just weird like that.
I also wanted to point out just how close the 285/75, 295/75 and the 305/70 tires are in size. Hardly noticeable to the eye. I was dead set on 305/70's this time but now I'll take a tire I can live with in any of these sizes.

I really thought I wanted a 295 because it is a little more narrow than a 315, but the more I look, I think I will just get the 315's. I found some tires called Trailcutter Radial RT's made by Cooper from a web based tire dealer in Nebraska for $535 with free shipping. Aggiephil has them and says he is having good luck with them.

They are D's , #3195 lb rating. The 295's are D's but rated for #3415 lb each. Here is a link with info and pictures but this is from a different dealer at a higher price.

Those look exactly like the Mud Terrain SXT tires that I have on my truck made by Dean tires, which I believe is a division of Cooper. I have 30k on them and they still look like I could get another 10k out of them.
