Tires DUNLOP or Cooper
My '02 Outback also rarely put wear on its tires. I drove that one much more offroad too and it had Cooper Discoverers that held up extremely well in all weather - snow, rock roads, summer asphalt, muddy parking lots.
My wife’s L322 on the coopers is stone cold boring in snow here in Colorado. She’s from the south so she’s always a bit nervous in the snow but she just commented to me yesterday that she feels so confident in that thing with those tires (I had made a comment that I thought the Coopers had worn in to be quite loud an she rebutted saying she doesn’t notice nor care due to how they perform.
i recently switched from bfg ko2 to cooper discoverer at3 and love them. only issue is they pickup alot of rocks. and i live on a dirt road so constantly picking them out. but they ride great great traction in the wet. do ok in mud snow etc. ive had on 3 vehicles one was a honda element. rode like it was on rails. my excursion same and when does slide very predictable even with lsd locking poweslides.
I’m also really enjoying the Cooper AT3s I just put on and I’m getting slightly better mpgs
I had the smell of spanking new Cooper Discoverer Road and Trail in my garage all weekend. Decided to give these a try. Will say these are very quiet for AT tires
I put on a set of Cooper Endeavor Plus tires. Have had them on for 40K and still have 6 mm left on the tires, so I should get 60K+. Quiet, comfortable, and work pretty good in the snow. They ran me $563 at tire Rack for a set of 4 and another $100 for install. I would definitely buy again.
I have the same set of tires and have noticed when my driveway is wet or icy it gets a little squirrelly. I did drive in a snow storm the other day and they did pretty decent, no complaints but they do kinda suck on the ice.
I've also run these tires for two winters. They are average at best for a winter. Do they get you around safe compared to all season or the oem summers, for sure. But in the world of winter tires, they have pretty bad traction on hard pack and ice.
Most go with Pirelli, Michelin , Falken where as Cooper is C grade tire.
I have brand new Coopers on my vehicle. One month after installing, I hit a pothole and the tire is now compromised and requires replacement. The tire is leaking air and has a large bubble on it.
