Default Cooper stt tire 285/75/16

Thinking of getting a set of these tires tomorrow. Just wondering what people's thoughts on them are? Considering road noise, wet weather traction (especially snow), mpg, and tread wear? I have a 2013 wrangler sport auto that is at the shop now getting a 2.5" lift in it. I do a lot of highway driving. Just looking for a couple last suggestions before I purchase them?
Thanks guys

I only buy cooper tires now. I will be going with the st maxx again, great wearing tire and lots of grip off road. The stt looks interesting as well,

I think the STTs are going to be my next tire when I move up to 35s. I know a few people who have them and they think they're great.

I have 37"X1250X17" on my Jk and love them. It took allot of weight to balance them right but the Jeep rides smooth and straight over 80MPH..

the only good picture I have of the tire is with the Jeep stuck but this gives you an idea..

I went with the st/maxxx s and love them. Got about 8500 miles so far and enjoy them! Went awesome in snow, little heavy but for a e-rated tire you'll have that. 285/75-16

I'm a big fan of mine. Not great in snow but that's cause of the width, not the tread. I'd get em
