Well from personal experience on 2 different sets of tires. Stay away from coopers. I had a set of discover stt under my diesel n got less than 15,000 miles outa them n my wife just had to put a new set under 1/2tn tck bc the cooper were wore out in less than 20,000 miles. She had hers ritated every 3,000 at her oil change n the tires were junked out. I run toyo mts under diesel n get 50-60,000 miles outa them. Im on my sec set n gonna buy anothr set in a couple months. 50-60k outa mud tires is a good bit of miles. Toyo for me here on out. Lets see what others have to say

Why should I trade one tyrant three thousand miles away for three thousand tyrants one mile away? An elected legislature can trample a man's rights as easily as a king can!

The longer lasting tires have herder rubber and dont ride as well. just ask your local tire dealer they should be able to give sound advice.

I was goig to save some money and got some tires from Discount tire for about $750 and the set lasted 20 thousand miles not to mention that they hummed going down the road. did this twice so cost me $1500 dollars for 40,000 miles...went back to michlins and we are on target to get 55,000-60,000 miles like we did when we first bought the maxima... about $1200 for 60,000 miles. paid more up front but saved considerably more as you can see by my figures.
