I just bought a set of mastercraft c/t and my tire guy said he has had guy's put 50000 miles on them and they were a very good all around tire.

They're made by Cooper.

I have Mastercraft tires on my CTD and wife's Monte and had them on my old Blazer. I know that various sizes and styles will wear differently but I have had good performance from them.

Why put cheap tires on an expencive truck? Thats like sticking a set of cheap tires on a cadillic. Pay a little more and get a BFG A/T that will easily see 70k. Ive used them on all my 4x4s and purchase my tires from sams club to get a good deal. I know theres a probibly a less expencive dealer than sams but i travel a lot and every city i go has a sams for my rotations. You asked and thats my opinion. Sorry if i offended anyone running mastercrafs.

get the pro comp xtreme a/t. Im running those. They are by far the best tire I have ever bought. They are very hard rubber and have an E load range. They wear very slowly, arent loud going down the road, and go though anything. I am going to get these again for sure. I really would get those. amazing tires all around

I'm sure Master Craft is like most brands, they have good, and less quality tires in their line up. Years ago, I used to run some off and on, but recently bought a used truck with them on, and before I got it home, was determined to get rid of the aprox 1/2 worn tires. They were noisy, rode very harsh, and they are now in the back of the truck, but not on the ground. Make some one a good deal, as I don't want them. Now part of my problem, I do not own a 4 x 4, and dislike the noise of off road tires. Put Michelin highway tread on and am happy now. (265 x 75 x 17)

The mastercraft C/T is identical to the Cooper S/T. I have run my first s/ts about 30K and they have @ 40% left. They have worn well, driven pretty quiet and worked really well off road considering their road manners. Three years ago they were one of a very few M&S 17's in E for our trucks. I consider Cooper to be pretty darn good tires for the money.... have used many over the years on our ranch vehicles in several tread patterns. However, they apparently had issues a year or so ago with the S/T and S/TC. I remember a thread on here talking about massive tread separation. Probably worth searching or someone with more skill than I can provide you a link. BTW our distributor said procomp is also largely owned by Cooper. I dont know though. Good Luck
