I wasn't sure about this tread style of Cooper STTs, but seeing them mounted up on PYOs sells me on them!

This might be my tire choice for my next truck!
I'll let you know how they work out!

I need pictures!!!
But But But I had to adult!

Can someone explain the process on how to strip those wheels to me? I have a set that I would like to try and I'm not 100% sure how to do it.
Buy a quality paint stripper, Kleen Strip "Aircraft stripper" or Zip Strip worked well for me. You coat them and let them sit, then i brush them with a stiff bristle brush. Wear gloves, bad clothes and glasses for sure. Then after you have coated, sat and brushed, hose them off. I had to do this set 3x to get it all. Then hand polish.

You found the only clean set of PYO's left in the wild. Well done
I was SUPER lucky with this set, the guy had them on his truck 5k miles AND had the weights removed from the front when he bought the truck.... It was surreal. For $100 even....

Alright, now that I'm done being an adult for the day, I managed to snap some picts before the sun went down.

Narrow wheels, tires under the fender, and a slightly different design makes it look much taller. I'm pleased.
