My buddy has Toyo at2 on his 16s on his OBS. We drove it to vermont this winter for a weekend. Tires did great, and the roads were terrible that weekend. That, and they look great too.

Oh yeah, 3 mud-seasons haven't killed them yet! Although the ride may be more harsh if you max out the PSI as I do, lol

I am wondering if the road trenches in the spring will be any issues or the small gravel pits on some back roads?

Given I don't drive primarily off-road, but last spring I sunk to the axle in 2wd in a saturated field, popped it into 4x4 and drove right out. Only problem I can see off-road is flinging rocks out of the wide treads. Hell, one of my favorite "mudding" roads is a seasonal road that is nothing but mud pits in the spring. Couple good logging trails too. Haven't been stuck off-road yet!

I am talking about the current status of Maine public roads I.E. some in Windham or surrounding areas that most likely require 28-30" suspension travel maybe 14" inches of lift and 35s will do.

I put on a set of Cooper Discover AT 3's at Christmas. So far I love them. Some of the lowest prices with the longest warranty on the market. I got 285/75-16 in a 10ply. They make a bit more noise than the Micheline did but they are half the cost and look way better.

I am now tempted on going with a 20x12 and a 325/60 but need money.
Any one used or heard of DPR wheels.
