Tires Cooper or NANKANG
They may not be the absolute best winter tire, but they're a solid options and much better than all seasons.
I just put on the Cooper Discoverer Road + Trail AT last week on my Disco 5. I have done about 150miles on them, mixed surface streets and highway speed (75mph) but no off road yet. They have been good so far, Im happy with them as for road comfort and noise. My significant other didn't notice any difference at all and that confirms my thoughts on good comfort and little noise change. :)
So I just got these Cooper Strongholds put on my truck. Went from a P tire so I was glad to get a nice rugged tire on. They are practical for what I need and looking forward to seeing how they perform in the snow. So far in the bit of mud I’ve been in they have great traction. They ride nice and are not super loud. I’d recommend these tires.
I would consider Cooper a mid range tire. They’re not cheap but they’re not premium. I have a 2007 Tacoma and it’s got 300,000 miles on it so I’ve ran many sets of tires. Just recently put the Cooper Discover A3 on my truck and they are great in the snow.
I’ve had both and the Cooper is superior in every condition. I ran them on my GMC Sierra but had BFG’s on several 4WD’s over the years. Where I lived we got lots of rain, some snow and occasional ice storms. I always had excellent traction. I drove them 60k miles and they still had tread left.
I also have a set of coopers on my tj. I’ve been very impressed with them so far and love how they chew through the really deep stuff, mud or snow. Main thing is that they’re heavy which has put some wear on my steering rack and tire carrier, they can be pretty loud on the freeway with the top off but I love that.
Nankang NS-2R. Semislick tyre made for endurance.
With one set of this I made more than 1.000km on track.
And they are cheap.
I’m in eastern Canada, and I’ve had those Motomasters tires that are designed by Cooper. They are pretty good when new. Not as good as Nokians in deep snow, but pretty decent. They wear out quickly however, and the performance degrades significantly as they wear out. They lasted about 25,000km and I could not even get the car moving on a slightly inclined icy driveway.
I have Cooper tires on my F-150, tires around 4 years old now and they are cracking pretty bad too
Budget Coopers are horrible tires.
