That said, I don't know if you would even consider MT's, JP. But, it might be worth looking into if you are.

I'll take a look at the FS MT2 and see what people think. I won't mind an mt as long as they can handle road miles too.
I thought you had a set Jbrew. Thank you for the input. Glad to hear a good review. My brother just got a set of the standard at3 and likes them a lot but his old tires were terribly chopped up.

Yea, not familiar w/2's. Other than what I said earlier, you could be right. Yea, the AT3's are very nice....nothing cheap about them.

So, it came down to Toyo's or Coopers -all said and researched. Coopers got the win.... I recall hearing the Toyos wearing quickly from some. Think they were about same in price. Both those tires look really good new and there are plenty of folks who swear by the Toyos. Anyway, those were the two I came up with before pulling the trigger. Don't you have the Toyos ?

My bad... I thought they were AT2's, but they are ATR's.
Read some other people saying they are quiet.... I disagree, LOL....

Brew, I do have the toyos and they have done really well. However, the new at3 xlt has a better mileage warranty, lower weight, and the new sidewall treatment looks pretty good too. So I am conflicted. Lol
I just ordered it from rockauto the other day so I'll see if it shows up before the weekend. Hopefully it won't take longer than a Saturday morning to get it put on there.
