Great performance all around

Cons:

10 ply tire - weight
|
|
Running these on my 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Have had them on for 18 months now. Great snow traction and off road performance while being mild on the roadway; no loud humming or spongy feel. I siped the center lugs myself which really helped the ice traction issue here in the Colorado Mountains! These tires have worn like iron while providing a nice responsive ride. Being a 10 ply tire, they area heavy compared to my other AT tires. Other than the weight....no complaints here.

Thank you to all you loyal posters. I was very picky when it came to buying my next set of tires. After careful review on this site I decided on the Cooper Discoverer STT's.
(I bought these tires 3 days ago)
I have a 95 Toyota 4Runner that has a couple inch suspension lift so that it clears the 33*12.50's and also has a Lock-Right rear Locker among other mods.
The drive to town takes about 18 minutes on the highway and these tires dont make much noise at all when new. We will see how they sound once they are broken in.
I am yet to try them in mud/sand/rock but the day I bought them I hit the trails up here in Norcal and tried them out in snow/ice. They did well. My 4Runner is converted to manual locking hubs and I did stop before we hit the snow and locked the hubs just to be safe. (I did not engage 4wd though) The snow these tires hit was VERY hard packed snow and lots of ice. About 2 1/2 feet of snow that we were walking on without sinking through.
I was very impressed with these tires and I would give them 7 for snow on a 1-10 scale and definitely a 10 out of 10 on trail terrain.
I will post feedback on my next review which will be testing these tires in mud.

Ok I have a 2005 F-350 4x4 crew cab short wheel base single wheel with the factory 18 x 8 wheels. I bought the first set of these coopers in 2005 they started having problems right off the bat. Cooper recalled them and came out with a heavier duty tire of the same size (35 x 12.5 x 18)So I traded out for the new tire. I have put nearly 40000 miles and they are at 1/2 tread left. I pull goose neck trailers for up to 500 miles on the interstate and the trailer has about 30000 lbs loaded weight. Never had a problem with flats or the tires handling the weight. My truck can smoke these for about 120 ft on pavement and they are still good with no cracks on the side wall or chipping of the lugs. The only problem I have is the out of round. I even took the truck to Tallahassee to a guy that have a trueing machine. He said they were way out when he cut them. They were great after that. Now 15000 miles later they are do the same thing. They are not cupped or wearing irregularly. I scared they have bad cords in them and now looking for something else to buy.With all tire in the 325-400 dollar range I am on here reading reviews to try a get a good tire. Will not be buying these again.

I have just purchased a second set for my other 4x4 one ton, after having purchased the first in Dec. 1, for those who understand you need to carry chains in the Winter and do not tow a 30,000 lb trailer this is excellent tires, and I live on 8 miles of Gravel Mountain Road.
For Snow, it means no chaining till it gets deep or Icey.
I could purchased any tire, but chose these. My old set is two months old, but they have been given a real test.
A-1 tires, as for wear miles on any deep tread, I say for the top line tires it will be wieght,driving habits, and road conditions.
Good driving!

Pros:

I currently have over 60K on these tires! They have been the best tires that I have run on my 2004 Ram 1500 HEMI 4x4. 90% on road wear, wore evenly, very "grippy" even at low tread. I will keep putting these tires on my truck as long as they mak
|
|
Cons:
|
Vibrate quite a bit at low tread, considering that this is an aggressive tread, I balk at marking this in the negative column. It is the only thing that I could come up with.
|
|
I would highly recommend these tires to any prospective buyer. They came highly recommended to me, and after 60K+, I won't buy any other tire unless Cooper stops making them. They have been the absolute best tires I have run! If you are able to get an unlimited balance and rotate with your purchase, I would do it religiously. They wear great, but they will chatter quite a bit if left unrotated.

The tread chips and does not hang on to the tyre

The tread chips and does not hang on to the tyre in serious stuff. Coopers say they fixed this and changed the formula, but whatever they did has not fixed it. I bought new STT's in 2011 and they are absolutely crap. Never again Mr Cooper, you're not up to Australian conditions unfortunately.

I have these tires on a 2001 GMC 2500HD crew cab 4x4 with the 8.1L engine. I got almost 60000 miles on these tires, which I didn't think was possible and yes the truck is driven everyday either hauling hay or animals somewhere. I have never been stuck in any mud I have gone into. Yes they humm on the pavement but tell me what mud tire doesn't. Looking to get my next set.

I have these on my Hummer H2 in 37x12.5x17 size and they turn heads in appearence. The first set of these lasted 40,000 miles, the set I'm needing to replace now have 56,000 miles. The difference in miles was due to me not rotating them enough. I live in the Smoky mountains and rotating at 3,000 miles is the key to getting more out of them NOT 5000 like i did on the 1st set (my bad). Performace wise I've only got stuck once with them, and it wasnt the tires fault, it took a bullozer to pull me out of the mud as I was buried clear up to the floor of the truck. Mud and trail is not a problem with these, snow is OK, ice sucks, with ANY tire. Once broken in they are what I consider very quiet on the roads, as I do about 85-90% of my driving on paved roads. I guess the fact that I'm getting ready to put my 3rd set of these on the Hummer says I'm sold on them. The only negative I've had was with the facotry on another ser of different coopers I had on the wifes FJ Cruiser which wore out at 16,000 miles. After alot of arm twisting they gave me a 50% refund which I applied to a different brand for her FJ

quietest mudder, even wear

Cons:

rock cuts

Bought these in 37-12.5-17 had them for 35000 mi on an 06 dodge 2500 gas. Still have around 50% tread on them. Two out of five were out of round when i bought them and they sent me new ones. Try that with dick cepecs. Quietest mud tire ive seen but not the best in mud. ok in snow, had worse on ice. Have some rock cuts in the tread but nothing tore off. Ran some 285s on my diesel towing and they wore out at 30000 mi. much better life with no torque or weight. Much cheaper than toyos seem just as good. Never had a mud tire wear even until now. Great tire just not for towing. My only complaint is they throw rocks real bad until 50% on gravel roads,hard on mirrors, windows and paint.Cant seem to find a better tire though, they stood behind my out of round ones. Cant complain ive had alot of worse tires that cost more and were terrible on the road,or fell apart like cepecs. Might buy again not bad other than the rocks they pick up.

I bought these tires for my 2001 dodge 2500. I immediately noticed a better smoother ride. These tires are quiet compared to bfg,s and Goodyear muds. Great traction in snow and ice. I drive a mountain pass each week in the winter and rarely have to use 4 wheel drive. Tires were siped. I compared these to the toyo mud tires and the coopers are a far better tire. I highly recommend these tires, great ride, awesome traction in mud and snow and great value.

These ain't your grandfathers Coopers of yesteryear! These are serious MT's!
Whats great is that @ the 285/75 R16 size, they are load D. From what I research a year ago, you WILL NOT find a Load C tire in that size in a 16" rim. Hence my delight in the load D rating of the Cooper.
Furthermore, the sidewalls are sinister, aggressive & functional as all hell!! Air 'em down & they flex superbly for my TJ. Have yet to get a puncture. On road they are predictable in both dry & wet conditions. In snow, they shine!
I'm definitely going to be buying a 2nd set when the time comes.
