Cooper tires Discoverer STT?

Im getting a new set of shoes for my runner within a month or two.
I have a set of All Terrain TA KM2's that i haven't been too impressed with to be honest. The rule of off roading, and heck, back roading, here in NC is expect one thing...muddy clay. The BFG's did horribly in the clay so im looking for a mud terrain that also has decent street manners and the STT's seem to fill that slot nicely. Any reviews and opinions?
Also, noob question but, will 32's fit with no rub on a stock IFS 1st gen with no lift? I have 30's now.

31's are probably as big as you can go without spacers or a body lift. Spacers will probably wear out your CV joints faster though

Have a friend who runs Coopers on her FJ. She ditched the BFG's for the same reason. She likes the tires a lot better. They seem to have lasted a lot longer than the BFG's, and they also seem to perform better as well. I wouldn't have a problem personally throwing them on my truck, based on what I've seen.

I have 315/75R16 Cooper STTs on Tundra. I nought hem used with about 1000 mass on them. K have since put about 2500 miles and really can't are them wearing g hardly yet besides some rash from of road use. I have no complaints in mud, dirt or even rain. I have yet to use them in the snow or on I've but a lot of trucks use them year round here in Alaska. Also, to me, they are quiet on the road for a M/T tire.

I had Cooper STT's before. Great traction in mud, sand and other tough trails but not the best tires on wet roads.

I've had them for almost three years. Great tire year round, beasts in the snow and mud. wet roads if you stomp on the brakes suddenly you will slide a little and hopefully not rearend anyone like i did.. twice haha but if you don't they're fine. I'd get another pair but am going to give the bfg mt km2s a shot
