I got them at HTC in Friendswood (thanks to Fountainhead for the info)

Jason Thurman and his crew did a fine job of getting things done, even though American Eagle screwed up the order.

Here are some in process shots.

i put a set of cooper discoverer A/T's on the F150 last summer... not too noisy, track and ride well, wear well... and clean themselves out when they get full... so far no traction issues... snow, mud, rocks.. you name it... it's been there...

Thanks for all the complements men. I really like the look and ride of that Cooper tire.

Rootsy - I went with the S/T, a little more agressive (Who would have figured I would want Aggresive) and a little more road noise, but at least the folks in the puny cars can here me coming and move to the median.

Poodle - These are 315/70R16 mounted on 10" American Eagle Series 102 wheels (with optional full coverage center caps). I'm going to try the caps as is for now, but I have a local machine shop ready to machine a hole in the front two for locking hub access. Funny AE doesn't make this model cap with an opening.

Brad - I say get some hub extensions and GO FOR IT !

Digger - That is A Ranch Hand Bullnose, here is the link, http://www.ranchhand.com/frontbumperbullnose.htm

I think they go for about $750, but mine cost $125ish. When I got hit in Grand Isle last year, the insurance paid for most of it.

Kenny - Actually AJ loves them. Plus I get 6-months to pay for free.

Thanks Again Fellas
