Tires Pirelli or Cooper
Not sure if it’s just a difference in driving habits, but I just got my OEM Pirelli’s rotated with 30,000mi on them and I am still at 6/32 all the way around. R1T Quad, mostly highway, All Purpose (never use Conserve), Standard height. I feel like I’m the only person who likes the OEM Pirelli?
I’d recommend Cooper Discoverer STT Pro, they handle well as daily driver offroad tires, road noise is not that bad on the highway and their mud and snow performance is very good.
As mentioned the old tires were shot with 2016 date stamps and cracks all over. Replaced with a set of Pirelli P4 Persist AS Plus tires aka the cheapest legit all-season tire ($99/ea). Car drives much better now and will be much safer once the rains return.
i have the cooper rugged trek and they’re awesome! they more aggressive but still quiet on the road.
I have been very happy with my Cooper Road and Trails. Good wet and dry weather traction so far and quiet, or at least not noticeable to me.
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. :)
Crossclimate 2 is definately best in snow, with average tread life. Pirelli is a best "summer" tyre of the bunch, but really suffers in longevity.
I'm getting tired of the tires on my GS. They're far from worn (10k miles, P7 A/S 3 Plus, pretty much still full tread), but are terrible in the rain. Up until recently, it was a sort of fun kind of terrible (easy oversteer, 4 wheel drifts, etc.), but yesterday was sketchy understeer at way too low of a speed. I didn't like that. I imagine emergency braking is equally awful. I don't want to find out.
Cooper tires are a joke. I just got a set and one popped on a gravel road and the other just started losing air for no reason.
