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. :)
Nokian is the original OG in winter tire. In fact, they practically invented winter tires and have been developing winter tires since. It's all I will ever buy for winter tires. Remember that these tires were developed for the harsh Finland winters. It's why I'm currently running some Hakka R3s on my car.
Nokians all the way. IMO they're well worth the money, they're a top tier tire made in Finland.
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.
Solterra owner here, living at 6k feet in the Sierra/Tahoe area..Installed WRg5s a month ago and it's been icy, near the freezing point on several occasions now. Maybe its the Solterra traction control, maybe its the tires...maybe its the combination of both, but I've been testing in black and glazed ice on the roundabouts and the tight icy corners and they won't. break. loose!
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.
They handle rain and snow pretty well... The worst was the ice storm down in Vancouver back in February. They did amazingly well for not being true snow tires and without studs
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 have the same Nokians... Let me tell you something, it does have great grip in winter but it's sooo noisy and it's uncomfortable. When I came back to the default Nexen tires it was like I turned the volume nob to zero. Complet silence abd I felt like I was floating.
Got mine a few weeks ago. Can't say I'm crazy about them. I drive a Prius Prime. On stock tires I got about 95+mpg(summer) on my 120mi daily commute. When I got G4, I was getting ~85mpg(summer). When I got G5, it dropped to about 75mpg(now). With just the gas engine, I got about 55mpg on stock tires, ~49 on G4, and something like ~45mpg or a bit higher on G5. I know new tires are generally more draggy. But this kind of number is still concerning, even though G5 has certified low rolling resistance and G4 didn't
