Cooper Discover stt??

Has any one had Cooper Discover stt tires? How do you like them? Is their much road noise? I can get a good deal on 4 but wanted to make sure they are good first. Thanks

Funny you should ask, I was going to post this very question. The last issue of Four Wheeler did a review on them. They(FW) seemed to like them, reported very little road noise as far as mud tires are concerned. I too was wondering about their off-road ability. I saw somewhere that they have this "armor-tek" that is supposed to increase sidewall durability. We'll see.

I was just looking and it seems as if these tires have been discontinued? Anyone know for sure? It would kind of suck to have a flat and not be able to replace it.. I can get 4 new "31x10.50" SST for $200.

As far as I know the STT is an improvement design over the previous model. I'm not sure what they replaced, but the STT is supposed to be better.

Would a agressive lug like that throw many rocks on gravel or not?

The Discoverer STT is the new tread design which is much more agressive (with sidewall lugs), whereas the Discoverer Radial STT is the old (out-of-date) tread design.

I am just curious as to how many miles you can get out of a set of the new STT's. Anyone got any feedback on this topic? I really like the looks of the new tire but need to hear more about performance and treadwear before buying any. I do know that the old Radial STT's wore down very quickly.

I have the STT's on my 95 Wrangler. I like them A lot, they have had pretty good life on the road, I dont put to many miles on the road but I probably have about 8k or so and the tires still look good and fresh. They handle great in the Mud also.


Edit: DOH Dead Zombie thread raise of the day for me I guess.

I have 315's on my 02 PSD, heavy *** truck, I tow max gvwr all year long and these tires kick butt! Quiet as one could expect from a road tire, can't hear them over the gentle hum of the diesel, not squishy when loaded down with weight, and awesome in the mud! BUY THEM! I paid 300 PER TIRE for mine!!!
