BoominX: it s not Pep Boys fault for enforcing state law.
Pep Boys Futura tires are GREAT tires in many sizes depending on what you are using them for.
I have heard nothing but good things about the Futura Mud tire. Of course its not the top of the line rock crawling monster with impossible to cut sidewalls, but it does wear great and does everything a good MT tire should.
Cooper makes good tires, I have had experience with 4 sets of their off brand tires on trucks and Jeeps, all tires worked well, especially for the $$$$.
If you are not tackling the Rubicon daily why shell out big $$$ to have name brands on your tires that will only last you 1-2 years anyways? I would rather buy cheaper MT's then throw $$$ down the drain to look cool!!!
