Re: cooper tires
I've had 2 sets of STTs and will put a set on my '94 the next time it needs tires. I would not hesitate to buy them. What are model are they?

Re: cooper tires
Agreed. I ran 285x75-16 on my Blazer and they had great traction in all conditions. I would buy them again for sure.

Re: cooper tires

Re: cooper tires
I have ran the Cooper Cobras on several of my trucks the last few years and i like them. Good ride, low noise and good wear.
Recently while calling around checking availability I ran into one tire store owner who got almost irate at the mention of Cooper tires. Said he would not even fix a flat on one. Said they were all made out of the US now hence his dislike of them. I admire his loyalty to American made goods and all but his phone manners need some work.

Re: cooper tires
I've run nothing but discoverers M/T's i like them for dirt road/ offroad and theyre great in the snow and stick to dry pavement like none other. but the tread life is only around 30,000 before i change them with an 1/8 inch left.

Re: cooper tires
cooper discoverer atr 235/75 15 Great tires, Quiet, Rides Nice, Does not pick up gravel, awesome traction (dirt, mud, wet grass, etc.) I have always had good luck with coopers, I just wish they made a tractor tire.
