Tires

[setty7]

anyone ran the cooper discoverer stt? Is it a good tire that I will get alot of miles out of? Good on and off road? Or should I go with the toyo mud tires or nitto trail grapplers? Thanks for any input!

 

[setty7]

Sorry man, I couldn't really tell ya. I don't deal much with cooper tires. I'm running wrangler TDs on my rig. Here is what I found about the coopers though. Cooper Tire

 

[setty7]

how do you like your wranglers?

 

[jdpber]

the coopers are a good tire i sell a decent amount of them.. had them on a DD jeep for a while. and the life depends on how you drive them.. i got almost 60k out of mine.. BUT i was not doing burn outs, hard turns, and took turns easy and babied the heck out of them.. how you drive dictates the life dramatically.. One can make a mud tire last 50+ if they drive conservatively.. but the discoverers are good for an easy 60 as long as you dont drive like you are a race car..

STT's will be my next tire. I had Cooper ST's on my old truck, and I loved them.

 

[setty7]

Im really thinking about getting them, does the tread pattern look cool in person? Same as online?

I love my TDs, never got stuck in the snow, even in the blizzard we had =)

 

[setty7]

td's?

 

[ChiTahoe]

td's?

Wrangler TD

I'm runnin LT 265/75R16. Gives the truck a nice stance.

I gotcha do they do good in mud?

 

[ChiTahoe]

I don't hit mud very often but they sure as hell grip in the snow and ice here.

We got some freakin snow didnt we?

My uncle's fleet has those TD's and Dunlop Radial Rover's on their silverados, they seem to be a really good tire when it comes to things like potholes and road debris that would normally cause punctures (compared to the Dunlops). They also do really well at the jobsite, I think they'd be a good choice if you want a decent capable tire.

 

[setty7]

which ones are you refering to battlewagun?

Thats a good group your lookin at. coopers might be a little louder. your actually lookin at the same group i did before i got my nittos. ps- i love them. quiet on the road and track well. good luck

 

[setty7]

which group? do you have any pics of the interior light sound contro and your head and tail lights? Also how does your flo pro sound? happy with it?

 

[ChiTahoe]

Lol yea, this winter was something. At work we got 20 foot ceilings and I could walk up the roof on side of the building with the snow drifts lol.

Setty depends on your price, I can buy wranglers for 130 each so that's why I got them.

 

[setty7]

what about any of these..wrangler mts, Nokian Vatiiva M/T, bridgestone dueler mt or fireston destination mt, or the kumho road venture kl71 (sick looking!)

 

[bowtiefreak]

the kl71 is what my tahoe has. Can;t review them yet, only a few miles on them. They do have a great look, low cost and all that.

Nice man what size? How do they do in the mud and on the road? How about tread life? Any problems you've had? Thanks for all your help!
