Cooper Discoverer S/T Tire Review - Four Wheeler Network

Cooper likes to call these tires an all-terrain. They don’t really have the huge voids of a mud-terrain. But calling these tires an “all-terrain” is sort of like saying Kate Upton is a “girl. These aren’t Cooper’s flagship tire, but we think they very well could be. They might be the most aggressive “all-terrain” we’ve ever tested. They have a great combination of tightly spaced lugs and large void areas that make them work well over a wide variety of terrain. We were looking for a tire that performed off-road but got us better performance on the street for our daily commuting. We bolted these to both our ’01 TJ and our ’98 Cherokee, and they worked great on both. However, they do sort of sound like a mud-terrain tire. We say “sort of,” because while even the deaf Trasborg could hear them on the road, they were by no means annoying on either of the vehicles we’ve tested them on. The hum from the tires is more than many other all-terrains but still doesn’t come... However, even though they seem more aggressive than most other all-terrains, they weren’t able to get us as far up the dune as a more aggressive mud-terrain. So long as we weren’t trying to climb dunes, it’s a really easy tire to live with in the sand. Source: www.fourwheeler.com
