I have had the Coopers (Discoverer STT's) on my H3 since 339 miles. They did awesome at the Rubi, in the sand at Pismo, and on the road in general. I would get them again. Price sounds about right.

Yeah, the guys we went on the Rubicon with were even commenting on how well the Coopers performed on the trail.

I know H2 Rocks had problems with hers. Don't know what size she was running though.

Anyone run them in the snow? I'd like a snow/ice opinion on these.

They are heavilly siped so should do well in ice and snow.***


*** Note - Pure speculation on my part besides knowing that they are siped

i have had them on for about 5000 miles. On road still relatively quite. The do very well in snow. On ice they do very good job for a mud type tire. If your concerned about ice get the cooper atr's. My wife's titan wears those and they do awesome on ice. You wont be dissapointed with either of these tires. good luck

I was running 35x12.5x18. The sidewalls on the Coopers seemed stiffer than other tires, and airing down for traction was a must. I had a terrible time keeping the Coopers balanced. I ruined at least one that I know of, (no visible damage, just was out of round or something) and suspected another of causing the rig to pull one way. They performed really well in the mud and on slickrock but I never got a chance to try them in snow and suspect the siping on each lug would provide good traction. The tire store I bought them from took them back under warranty and put on BFG's for a $40 per tire difference. (BFG being $40 more)

BTW, The Coopers weren't any louder either.

MarineHawk is running 37" Coopers, and I don't think he's had any problems.

Good luck with your decision.

Thank you all for the good info. If I do decide to get tires I think it will be the coopers. Since I dont have a lot to spend I have to decide if I want to buy a brush guard and lights now and get tires when I wear out the Duelers or forget the brush guard and lights and get the tires now. Hmmmm
