Default Quick tire poll.
Putting 35s on my cj5. Considering on road manners, off road performance and life of the tire. Which one of these roughly $1000 range (per 4 tires, will buy cheap used as 5th spare) tires would you buy?

-35 Cooper STT mud terrain
-35 Pro Comp Xtreme M/T2
-35 BFGoodrich TA Mud Terrain

I would certainly keep the STT's on your list and the original KM's if you're going for the vintage look. The Pro comps seem to be good right off but not through the life (though they now have a mileage warranty on their tires).

Please don't buy into the hype of the newest fads of tires......mtrk's, dura's, and nitto trail graps. It's not the correct look for the cj5. Irok's on the other hand.....
