Now that I finished Great Divide Challenge II in Colorado, I am so sold on the Cooper Zeon LTZ's! They performed great on the rocks, soft dirt, stream crossings, highway, etc. Take a good look at America's Tire. Photos of the trip are here:

I couldn't agree more, I was on the trip also and really tested the tires w/ some crazy lines. I had the Nitto's prior to the trip and they are good, don't get me wrong, but these are a heck of a lot more aggressive. The Nitto's are better on-hwy, the Coopers seem to produce some shake at hwy speeds where the Nitto's did not. The Cooper tires are super sticky, you can feel the difference with your hands even, they grip everything. They are definately the tire of the moment. (BFG is coming out with there MT for our trucks, rumor has it.) Hope this Helps
