Tires Cooper or Achilles
For as much time as you spend on the freeway I would 100% go with the Discoverer AT3s! Such a dope tire! Superb road manners, ultra quiet, and awesome capabilities when you push them!
Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S! Went from KO2’s to these and it’s a night and day difference in terms of handling, smoothness, MPG, and most important (for me)- cold/ wet weather performance!
I am a big fan of Cooper discoverer tires. Currently running the rugged trek in 275/65 R20 on my 1500 AT4. Quieter than the Goodyears that came with the truck.
They performed admirably, especially for the price. To my ears they were quieter than the factory Dunlops, and they definitely lasted longer. I replaced them after around 45,000 miles (~72,000 km since I see you are a northern neighbor) because of a sidewall bubble, but that was courtesy of a massive pothole rather than any sort of defect. There was still tread life remaining.
Studded Cooper discoverer snowclaws not much to look at but excellent traction on snow and ice
Easily, Coopers. Ran the AT3 on my last truck (Silverado). Had right at 58,000 miles on them when I sold the truck with plenty of life left on the tires.
I’ve ran BFG KO2, Cooper AT3, Cooper STT Pro, and Cooper ST Maxx. All of them have been good tires but my favorite by far were the ST Maxx.
Replaced with Cooper AT3 XLT, which also have the RWL sidewall like the STT, and am over 50% tread at 38k miles. They are quieter, too.
They lasted 18,000 miles on my 2015 Mazda 6 before I was down to the wires. I mean for the price you get a ..... tire. They are not horrible tires that will be unsafe or that will handle horribly, but they are budget tires that won’t last long and that are loud specially with age.
They suck lol. They are loud, they hyrdoplane like a motherfucker, grooved pavement like overpasses makes them do this weird shimmy thing, and they wear quick. They cause the ABS to kick on super early, and lose traction fast.
