Post subject:  Advice on M/T's

It's finally time to renew my rubber!!! I've done alot of searching around (this forum and others) and have narrowed it down to either the Cooper STT, Interco SSR or Yokohama Geolandar M/T Plus (not the regular M/T's). All three have gotten good all around reviews and I want to know if they have any particular problems, namely wet traction as I will be moving to Northern Virginia in three months.

Thanks for the help.

Something to think about on the Geolanders: directional tread means you can't 'X' rotate your tires...

I know the Coopers are decent tires. The Super Swampers will have the major disadvantage of all their tires: short tread life, lots of noise. I wanted one still when I was looking into tires, but the only proper tire size for the KJ is for the TSL Radial, on 15" rims (30x.9.5" LT, equal to 245/75), but others have run the 265/75R16 Trxus MTs on stock rims and like them, but expect rubbing, and probably a lot of it (I rub a decent amount with my 245/75s). The Yokohamas are probably the cheapest, but I would never get the cheapest tire out of a group.
