COOPER ST-C TECHNOLOGY
If you do 80% of your driving on coarse rocky
roads and need a tire that's more cut and chip
resistant than a ST but quieter on-road than a
STT then this is the tire for you - the Cooper
ST-C (Cut & Chip Compound).
SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR COARSE ROCKY
ROAD/TERRAIN
A special addition to the Cooper ST range, the
tire that outperformed 16 other brands of
leading all-terrain 4x4 tires to be rated
Australia's No.1 off-road tire*, the Cooper ST-C
has been developed specifically for customers
who do most of their driving on coarse rocky
road/terrain that requires greater cut and chip
resistance.
INCREASED CUT, CHIP AND LUG TEAR RESISTANCE
The Cooper ST-C is made with selective changes
to the compound of the S/T that increases cut,
chip and lug tear resistance by up to 90%. A
nylon overlay increases tread pattern strength
and reduces belt separations - the nylon acts as
a protective layer making it harder to cut
through to the steel belts.
40% Road & Sand
60% Dirt & Mud
- Specifically designed for course rocky
road/terrain
- Increase cut, chip and lug tear
resistance
- Quieter on road that the STT

7 REASONS WHY COOPER TIRES ARE SO
GOOD
- Coopers have deeper treads, up
to 30% more than some brands, which
means you get more tire for your
money, more kilometers, more grip,
more resistance to punctures.
- Coopers have deeper tread
patterns. Today many manufacturers
are lowering tread pattern depths,
which reduce wet weather and off
road grip.
- Coopers stand up straighter.
Most Asian and Australian brands of
4X4 tires have a round or "belly"
shape in the sidewalls. Cooper, by
design, stands straighter to deflect
objects.
- Coopers have see through treads.
The latest tread designs have open
straight grooves for wet grip and
self-cleaning - Cooper tread designs
are all the most current designs.
- Coopers have round edge treads,
not square. The current thinking in
4WD tyre design is self-cleaning
patterns with round shoulders, V
shaped tread grooves and deeper
tread patterns. Square edges track
on the road, causing irregular
shoulder wear.
- Coopers are aftermarket
producers. In tire manufacturing
there are two types, original
equipment suppliers, and after
market suppliers. Cooper produce
exclusively for the aftermarket so
they don't compromise on quality or
performance to meet a price or the
criteria of a vehicle manufacturer.
- Coopers have high quality inner
liners. The most important
characteristic of a tire is its
ability to hold air. Cooper uses the
best quality inner liner (Haolobutyl)
as well as a thicker liner to give
almost 100% air retention, where
others vary the quality of compound
and the thickness to reduce cost.
