Does yours have a guard there? i would use that area to jack up the front/middle too, but have this plate in the way.

Well got them put on, not as bright as the factory ones but they look damn good. Happy with the 275/65sr20s.

As you know, I don’t yet have my 150. Covid delayed.

Made good progress today. A builder friend came over to look at some repairs my home needs, in an 18 Supercrew Lariat 2.7.

Got him to show my wife around the truck and I think as a first time look she was impressed. He’s really happy with it.

Took it for a ride and I'm impressed how smooth and quiet these at3s are. I can't even hear them, my st maxx had a slight hum and got a pretty good hum doing 70. This will be a nice change.

Great! Cooper tires have impressed me as well. I've got their A/TW on the Ranger, and had my DuraTracs on another set of wheels, just in case last winter. Never even had a thought of putting them on. ,
I'd grab a set of those AT3's if they had the size for me, really have heard nothing bad about them. I'd like to hear what you think of them this winter down there in the snowbelt.

Tested on an '18 F150 4x4.

Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo 3 (On-/Off-Road All-Terrain, P265/70R17 113T)
  • What We Liked: Good impact isolation, precise steering, good winter capability.
  • What We'd Improve: Tread noise is very noticeable.
  • Conclusion: A competent all-terrain option.

Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S(On-/Off-Road All-Terrain, 265/70R17 115T)
  • What We Liked: The soft ride absorbs small imperfections well, good winter traction.
  • What We'd Improve: Some excessive motion after impacts feels unrefined, and the steering could be a little more responsive.
  • Conclusion: A good addition to the category.
