- This is a Comparison of the three new variations of the Cooper Discoverer AT3. I like how Cooper has approached the tire delivering different features and benefits to different types of customers instead of having a one tire fits all type of approach. Cooper is a quality tire manufacturer that is based in the United States. See the links below if you want to look at the tires in more detail. If you need a set, click the Tire Buyer Link below.

This video is 5 years old . And it’s still awesome in 2023 I came back to see the difference between the xlt and LT great video thank you
Thanks for watching!
Same for me in 2024
I have the at3 4s on my Tacoma and have had no issues going on 3 years and hardly any wear. These tires are amazing ! The wet weather we get here in Virginia is very unpredictable and these tires are very sure-footed in wet conditions.
Great to know this. I recently purchased the 4S in 255/75/17 for my 2nd Gen Tacoma and I haven't really put it to the test. My first impression was I thought it was fairly quiet during my road trip to southern CA.
I'm going with LT version, only because I've split sidewalls a few times on basic off road.
Great to know I ordered a set for my 21 Tacoma up here in Jersey.
I have older AT3’s on my older Silverado and love them.
I’m hoping to feel the same with them on my Tacoma
It truly is a fantastic tire 4 trucks in my family have them. Great tire for fl. Wet conditions. Great mileage, low noise, believe it or not it does great in mudding florida roads and wet grasses.
Great to hear! Which series did you get?
@b g
@@nathanaelnicol1256 at3 LT
Thanks. I think this is next for me
My favorite all terrain is the AT3 4S. It provides a great balance between highway and all terrain.
Thanks for the feedback!
Mine are incredible in the snow, iv been so surprised
How are the HS towing??? I’m looking for a new tire for my 15 Yukon and I tow a 7800 lb camper…
I have the older version the A/T3 and they worked great in the snow, off road in mud and, and on the street. With pretty low road noise.
They chop up a little though. The new ones are suppose to be better.
I have a 2016 Ford F350 Club Cab with original tires: Tire
Size: LT275/65R20/E
Michelin - LTX A/T2 with 39000 miles on the Truck &
Tires. A tire just blew on the highway today 6/17/2021 and caused quite a bit
of damage to the Rear Fender. It was on the highway and the temp was 105 F and my
speed was 70 MPH.
Now I don't know what to do I don't trust the other tires on
the Truck!!! However, they are supposed to run 60,000 miles. These are supposed
to be the best tires you can buy. List price on these tires is over 500.00
each. but now I am thinking of changing Brands!
Plus, I have all this damage to my Truck. I do have pictures
of everything.
Note: There was a very large Explosion when the tire blew
without any warning.
I was still about 100 miles from Home. So, I put on the
spare, stopped at the first stop I could about 2 miles down the road to check
the tire pressure on the spare. It only had 45 lbs. of air. So, I added air to
the spare and continued home without any more issues.
The best and most extensive tire reviews out there. Thank you for all the great information. I never knew so much thought went into tires. I’m 42 and have overlooked how important a good tire is.great video
I just bought the at3 for my expedition today. And we had a lake effect snow event last night with a foot of snow. I'm very happy with the way they handle snow and ice. That wagon goes like a tank.
Awesome! Thank you for your feedback.
@@CampusautoCo op
You should try an actual snow tire sometime
@@gary0050 I'm sure snow tires would take it to a new level. The roads are usually cleared pretty quick.
I just had a set of Discoverer AT3 XLTs installed on my F 150 and I love them. Smooth and quiet and they look great.
Great to hear!
put them on my F150 rides good but I feel every crack and bump in the road. Do you???
@@Steven_ologist these are a heavier duty tire. The ride is a little rougher but I'm going down the road with my motorcycles in tow the truck rides great and even so when I'm hauling a ton of gravel or dirt.
Cooper tires are so under rated in the off road/ truck community they really are great tires
Totally agree!
Probably because they're relatively new.
They’re heavy though
I love my Cooper Discoverer AT3 LT's. I have a 1997 K2500 Suburban. We load up the family and tow the boat over several mountain passes here in Washington state. These tires handle everything we throw at them; snow, heavy rain, towing, forest service roads, slippery boat ramps, and long highway trips all with out issue and very little cabin noise. I've owned KO2 and hated them, couldn't wait to get them off my vehicle. I will be replacing my tires this fall and Coopers AT3 LT's will be going back on the Burban.
No dog in this fight besides just ordering the LTs, but I'm curious what made you dislike the KO2 so much.
@@anthonycrots2161 Totally fare question. I bought a pare for my Jeep TJ in 2004 timeframe. I know a long time ago and yes they’ve made improvements to them since then but the hype/cult following was the same back then. For me they gave my light soft top Jeep a very rough ride. They felt heavy compared to other tires I’ve had. The tried pattern clogged easily and became slicks. Even aired down they felt square, limiting traction. Now with that being said the Jeep is a very light vehicle. I’m sure I would had better performance in a slightly heavier vehicle. I’ve known a lot of Tacoma guys run them them and like them. But for me they didn’t work well in the Jeep and for even heavier vehicles like my K2500 Suburban I prefer the Coopers.
This review has helped me greatly in deciding which of these cooper tires to purchase. Very good video and great explanation of each tire and scientific analysis spoken in laymens terms
Glad I could help!
I’ve spent way too much time trying to figure out which AT tires to get and I think I’ve decided on the XLTs in 285/75/R18 for my 23 Tundra. Sounds like everyone has good things to say, and they’re a little bit lighter than comparable ones. Thanks for the videos and sharing your knowledge. 👍
Hey man I’m between the AT3 4S and the XLT. I don’t need the load range tire but I love the raised white letters. How have your XLTs been if you ended up buying them?
@@mattm5786 I like them! I went with 275 70 R18. The white lettering n my white tundra looks really good. They’re not loud tires, either. I’m happy with my purchase.
@@carrow2250 that’s awesome if you live a snowy area how are they in that kindve in environment I live in southern Ontario and we usually don’t get it too bad. But I will be running them through all the seasons.
@@mattm5786 I live in the PNW so its mostly rain here. Haven’t tested them in the snow.
Been a copper fan boy my whole life run their line up on every car I’ve ever had and never been let down!!
Can't go wrong with Cooper!
Recently purchased a set of at3 lt for my gmc 2500hd.Shop owner said I couldn’t go wrong with the Coopers and several customers in the store agreed.Thanks for the recommendation
Good stuff
Good review of these tires. I have a full set of the AT3 XLT's on my 2015 Ford F350 which is a 4 door cab, 8ft bed, 4wd and electronic locking differential, and 20" stock rims just to set the baseline. I have towed fully loaded 5th wheel trailers through the mud in Florida after endless rainy days and weeks using these tires. I mainly credit the sidewall for being the reason I don't get stuck besides the obvious aggressive tread pattern. They handle great on the road loaded or empty. They ride very quiet and it has no vibration. I recommend these all day, any day, for someone who has trucks similar to mine regardless of brand.
How are they in the sand?
I run these on my Rubicon gladiator in 285/75/18 and I couldn’t be any more impressed
They are fantastic in heavy rain and sand
You think the XLT are over kill for a 1500
I've ran these Cooper Discoverer AT3 LT tires on my half-ton GMC 4x4 since 2015. I rotate my tires every 5,000 miles and I've gone through 2 sets since 2015. I live on 50 miles of heavy gravel, plus I hunt and get firewood so need off-trail in dry and mud...then head to town for groceries on the highway. I also live in Montana so have winter ice & snow conditions to deal with. I can NOT say enough GOOD things about these tires. I've had an average of 55,000 miles on each set. This last set that I'm about to change out has 61,000 miles on them! Great job on these tires, Cooper!
Went with AT3 4S. Glad I did. Wow they feel amazing. Put on A 2019 Chevy traverse. Whole different feel now 🤙🏼
How is Road/highway noise?
Thank you for resolving what was a mystery to me.
You're welcome!
Just put the at3 4s on my 2016 f150. Smooth ride and very quiet. Thanks for the info on these tires. Very good in the snow and rain. Good looking tire.
Glad to help
Did u go through snow ??
Tires did very well in the snow. Still very quiet and never hydroplaned in the rain. Very nice looking tire also.
@@JUSTJESSE-sx7ib yeah I’m debating on the at3 4s and the falken widepeaks at3
Do you tow at all with the 4s?
I love the XLT’s on my truck. It’s almost always on the highway but I still go off-road to go camping on the weekends. The LT construction gives me the confidence to go over rough terrain.
Right on
How was the road noise
@@angeljose6261 Tire noise is very minimal. It is comparable to the highway tires that came with my truck.
How about MPG? Any effect on that??
Thank you for the info and redirecting me to this video! I kept looking for some proper review for cooper and this was the best! I`ll go for the AT3 4S on my hilux after seeing this :)
Awesome!
This video helped me buy a set of AT3 4s for my 19 Dodge Durango, and now I came back to reconfirm my purchase of XLT’s for my new titan pro 4x!
Install my XLT on Monday. My Armada needs some new shoes, hopefully they're as good as people say.
You will be happy. Its a good tire.
Update please!
501 N 503 any update?
Just bought four of these coopers at3 4s and they are awesome. I asked the installer what he thought of them and he turned to me and said they were the best.
Awesome. Let me know how they do.
How is the highway noise for the at3 4s?
@@grahameread5719 excellent. I don’t hear nothing at all.
What vehicle are they on?
@@bretring 2007f150
I have the Cooper AT3 LT275 70r 18's on my Tundra. They have good dry, wet, and snow traction. 15k miles and the treadwear looks great. Happy with these tires.
I have a 07 tundra double cab do you think those would fit on my truck?
@@stevencomstock3332 I believe this is the biggest tire you can run with stock suspension. Good all around truck tire so far.
Duck Cluck Goose thank you for the response I hope it will fit haha!
I have an 08 Tundra. Currently running KO2’s in 305 size with level kit. I really have no complaints with them other than loss of fuel mileage and road noise for the last 25k. I am almost to 100 Thousand Kilometres on them. Am leaning toward these Coopers as replacement. Did they effect your mpg’s at all and how are they in the snow? I’m in Canada and run snow very often!
Awesome, Thanks for the feedback. How are they doing now?
Good vid. I'm all in on Cooper suv/truck tires. STT Pro on the Trooper (third set) and AT3 LT 10 ply on the 4runner, which replaced the Yokohamas . Never had a flat on any Cooper tire, despite the rocky off road trails we have in western Montana.
Thanks for the feedback!
Thanks for the video. I have BFG KO2's on my 2006 4x4 2500HD duramax, and ran them in snow and desert, towing boats and trailers, and I am replacing them after 9500 miles with the ATS3 Cooper, they are completely worn out even though I rotated them as per manufactures specifications. My Son's Truck is a 1/2 ton with a lift kit, and he didn't do much better with his KO2's. He also pulled trailers and such. My 1994 Jeep ZJ has the KO2"s, and they are fine after 15K miles. Pretty sure it has something to do with the weight of the vehicle, and towing / hauling. Going to give the Coopers a go because I have had good luck with the Dick Cepek Mountain cats that they no longer make, and they were a cooper tire made for Cepek.
BFG had a problem with the tread compound and accelerated wear with some sizes. They changed the compound and the new tires are going to be out in January. They lost alot of customers becasue of this.
For someone in a Ford F150 in Montana who spends maybe 30% off road and mostly on gravel roads do you feel it's worth going with an 8 or 10ply tire? I've been on the Bridgestone Dueler A/T Revo 3's and have no flats ever. No leaks or issues whatsoever. I'm considering the Discoverer XLT but wondering if I really need to go 10ply. Any thoughts are helpful.
Your reviews are great, btw!
Out of those three tires, which one would you recommend for a 2018 Toyota Tundra Crew Max 4wd that tows a 31ft travel trailer that weighs about 7400lbs? I live in Pennsylvania too so the snow is going to be a factor also.
I currently run a 35" Nitto Ridge Grappler and they suck in the rain. These will definately be my next set
Good choice.
Best tire I’ve ever owned out about 75k on them and still had plenty of traction left
which ones did you have?
Thanks for the comparison. Really helps explain where the Cooper website leaves me wondering. Missed that red sharpie though.
I've been looking at these for a while and Walmart offers them in my size (235/75/15) for 74$ per tire, but they don't specify at3 at all. They are listed as "A/T" and in the pictures they don't have anything on the sidewall but "A/T". They are also rated at 60k (105T), so do you guys know if there is a difference?
They are not the same. Cooper makes tire to Walmart Specs especially for them.
Good to see this review - just ordered some AT3 LT's for my 2003 Expedition - I couldn't say no to the price and this review sealed the deal.
Thank you for the detailed video!
Glad it was helpful!
@@CampusautoCo Definitely! I'll have to do a video of them in the future!
Hello. I am leaning toward the Coopers rather than the K02 mainly for price but also because, I currently run Cooper and they have met all my needs. I find it interesting when talking about airing down the tire for more traction, you were on the XLT tire (which i think is 10 ply) I was thinking about geting a 10 ply tire, not for towing, but for increased traction when air down for increased traction, such as when you are stuck in snow or mud. I am at times out on off road roads or trails alone in my truck and getting stuck is something I try to avoid. But when stuck do you know if airing down a 10 ply tire versus a non 10 ply such as the AT3 4S is any difference in traction when trying to get unstuck? Thanks!
I like the XLT side wall in 18s for my Ford F150
Good choice
I have a 2006 Toyota Tacoma and I have the at3 XLT’s on my truck with a 2 inch lift with size 285/75/16 and it makes my truck look so nice and beautiful even though they are bigger tires I run my tire pressure at 40 psi and I ride a lot of highway and minor off-road they are quiet and very comfortable when I do go off the road it makes me feel confident. Love the at3’s only tires I’ll ever buy for my trucks.
Really great tire. Great traction all year around. Very quiet for an All Terrain tire. I've put 45000 miles on a set of XLT's on an 04 2500hd. Still have a solid 30% tread life left.
Very nice!
I have the Discovery AT3 LT in Lt 265-75/16 on my Silverado. They have been good tires so far, only had them for about five months. As far as noise is concerned, they do sing a bit, this is due to the tread being of a bit of an open design, I don't mind the singing, it's a good tune.
Just got myself the 4S for my 2WD '07 4runner. Looks cool and capable but without that "bro" look
Surprisingly quiet on fwy and very comfortable. All positive so far. I'll update this comment in few years with my real thoughts. Going a little off road to Coxey Trail from Apple Valley to Big Bear this weekend so we'll see how these set will hold up.
I would love to get a long term update on the 4s!
Campus Automotive Inc went there last weekend. Few tough and deep spots but the 4S handled them effortlessly, not a slip. No chips. Pretty happy with the purchase.
I’ll update this comment in few years.
@@CampusautoCo - here is your update - ruclips.net/video/_LJPnLHzwG8/видео.html
I have 19 4runner nightshade with the XP 20x9 et14 wheels with the BFG Rugged Terrain 275/55-20. I love the Rugged T's but they are discontinued:(
With the 3" lift going on with tax return I am thinking a 275/55 (32"OD) or the 265/60 (32.5" OD) Coopers. 90% on road mileage
@@CampusautoCo Long term you say :) you would probably have to subscribe
do you think the Discoverer AT3 4S would be a good tire for my 2011 Ranger extended cab? tire size is P225/70R15 and is available in this brand thx
Very helpful video. I'm looking for an American made tire that performs well on my F-150 4x4. Leaning toward a 10 ply E rating for towing stability and higher tire pressure when needed, Most of my time will be on the highway but occasional off road use. I'm leaning toward the Cooper AT 3 LT. Firestone and Bridgestone also offer nice tires. Not too aggressive but a bit of a rugged look. Not too noisy either. thank you!
You could also look at the Continental Terrain Contact AT. Skip the E rated tires. They will ruin your ride and they are way overkill.
What I noticed right away after getting these tires oh, it was like as if the suspension was changed as well do I state-of-the-art off-road suspension, it handled potholes very well oh, they still do 5 years later. Hardly any mileage on them though oh, very good in the snow haven't gone off-roading with them have a quad for that what's mud tires. But they're very good oh, and they're installed on a Toyota RAV4 V6 with the trailering package. Great tires!
Awesome. Thanks for the real world feedback!
Oh?
@@Polemicist_ 😂😂😂😂😂
Matt, can you recommend a replacement tire for my 2022 ram 1500 rebel? I never really go off road it’s my daily driver, lots of bad roads here in NJ and snow. I was researching the cooper AT34S just wanted your thoughts. Thx you
since they stopped production of the cooper discoverer m+S (i drove 300.000 km on these tires on my 2 landcruiser) i had to get a new tire. nokia hapa... lt2 in snow is b...s.... for this season in got the new cooper discoverer at3 4s. i drove it twice on snow allready and i‘m realy happy so far. probably even better than the old m+s, and much much much better than the nokian.
Awesome! Thank you for that. I don't see too many Nokian Tires around here but I hear they are great.
I will be putting a set of the AT3 XLT's on my '99 Tacoma SR5 next week. Definitely a bit of overkill, as I use the truck mostly on roads, with some occasional trailer hauling in the summer, and part-time, too (it's my 2nd vehicle). But the LT is not available in 31/10.5R15 - a size that limits many tire options. I could buy 265/75R15, but those are usually STD range. I really appreciate this comparison review ... thanks!
Let me know how they do. They seem to be a great tire.
you can never go wrong with an LT on anything larger than a car.
I fit 315/75 r16 in my silverado 02 vortec 4.3 ... looks great, awesome tire durability !
Awesome!
I love the xlt I have 33" they are smooth quite and grippy as all hell
Cool
I am torn between the 4s, XLT and Grabber ATX. I had bad wet traction with KO2 so I hesitate to go that route. After 30k miles on them they were slippery. Mostly highway driving. Leveled Tundra.
@@dannakoneczny3930 I think the xlt is going to sirve you well its quite it's great in rain I don't think you can go wrong with them
Dan Nakoneczny I also have a levelled Tundra 08 and have been running KO2’s for last 100k. I have no complaints other than loss of mpg’s and road noise from them. I don’t go off road all that much anymore but still like a fairly capable tire when I do. Am leaning toward these Coopers XLT’s but trying to get as much feedback as possible. I need a tire that wears well, and gets snow/wet traction more than anything.
Getting my xlts put on my 2011 silverado tomorrow went with a 285 65 18 since I'm leveled I think I'll do pretty good. I was torn between those and the toyo rt.
This will be better than the RT
@@CampusautoCo awesome, I'm already getting compliments on how they look.
How would yall compare the at3 xlt to the toyo open country at3. I'm currently running the toyo at3 for treadlife, dry, wet, and snow traction. 33x12.50r20 04 yukon Denali with always a good amount of weight in the back and also tow. The toyo at2 I was highly disappointed in for performance and treadlife lasting only 25k miles. The at3 I'm impressed with so far with 10k miles but still have a ways to go to see about treadlife.
Cool, I appreciate the feedback on the Toyo's.
@@CampusautoCo I went ahead and decided ima run the cooper at3 xlt on my next set and compare the 2.
@@jwatt95 What’s an ima?
4s or XLT on a Sequoia 275/55/20. Like the look of the xlt's more. Are they "better"... I meen more aggressive? Are the XLT's stiffer than the 4s?
Do 4S. The XLT have more Ply so they will ride firmer.
235 70 r 16... Hyundai Santa Fe gls 3.3lv6 and I think 17 and 18s are available for this model, but rugged tires may need more space. So my beef is I like the cooper at3 s xlt? you mentioned the side wall looking better i agree, and know that is is more protected...same tread pattern as the Cooper at3 4s... but, for 16s, its hard to find a side wall that rugged as well as the tread to match. Ko2, atx, etc. The one new tire less know is the Radar Renegade AT5S...i like the sound of coopers heard good things, they are on sale know...but seem like all the bigger tires 18 threw 30 get the the bad ass look, 16s get the look just not as mean, plus the side walls on the atxs would be tight on the discovery at3 4s' any thoughts?... have you had a look at the Radar Renegade at5s3 ? Or would you mind taking a peak?....
Radar Renegade at5s3 is a cheap offshore tire. Pretty much junk. If you like the Cooper, stick with the 4s. You will get a much better ride.
Do you plan to do a video or can you comment on the new Cooper Discoverer Road and Trail A/T Tire? I have the AT3 XLT's and have been great tires going on almost 80k miles on them . I drive a half ton truck and do pull a big travel trailer in the summer months, but considering trying the updated new Road and Trail A/T tire by Cooper, have loved my XLT's but my biggest thing i would change about them is the stiffness of the ride. Thanks
The 4s is incredible in the snow.im up to 2 feet no problems.
Heck yeah!
Mine worked great in about 10 inches of snow on my F150
I have a 2021 Toyota tundra. It comes with a passenger rated tire. We pull a 9000 pound 36 foot RV. Tundra can pull it, but when there’s wind there’s a lot of road walk. I’m thinking it’s the P rated tires. Do you recommend the Cooper LT‘s to resolve this issue or am I just grasping at straws?
It will help some. You need to do the rear TRD sway bar on the Tundra too!
Look like the old Remington Wide Brute. Best tires I remember!
Old School!
Do all of these tires come with white lettering on one side and black on the other? I want black but don’t want the inside of my tire showing white letters
This was a very helpful review perfectly explaining the tire differences and purposes
Looking into these for my Sport Trac, only issue is they aren’t severe weather rated with the 3 peak symbol. I’m running Cooper AT/Ws at the moment and they are fantastic they are snow rated with the 3 peak symbol.
The at34s is 3 peak snowflake rated.
Correct
i only drive a Tacoma but I'm planning to get the LT version just because thats how I roll. Heavy duty tires on a light duty truck should last a VERY long time.
Sometimes, but I would rather keep the ride if I could.
Big fan of your channel! I've got a 2016 Ram 4X4 Sport and am looking at going to a 285/60-20 tire from the stock 275/60-20. I currently have the Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus tires and I love them, but they are not offered in the size I want to move to. I am considering the Cooper AT3 XLT and General Grabber ATX, which is what brought me back to your channel. 95% of our driving is On-Road which is why I like the Pirelli, they are not squirmy and very confidence inspiring on the road yet aggressive enough for the look I want (don't want a dedicated highway tire). We do have horses so when we tow, it's generally a trailer full of hay and in wet grass and/or muddy areas. What would your tire preference be? Also, I hear you mention lower, mid and higher tier tires. Would you be willing to make a video detailing what criteria puts certain tires in these categories? Again, thank you for your very informative videos, your channel is my go-to for tire info.
That’s a great idea for a video. I think you should stick with the factory size if possible. I would recommend the General Grabber ATX over the Cooper. I would also recommend the Continental Terrain Contact AT. The bigger size tire will crush your fuel mileage, especially while towing.
@@CampusautoCo Thank you! The reason for wanting a bigger/wider tire is to get a little more wheel protection. I am not the only driver and others don't take as much care as I do to not scuff the wheels on curbs, etc.... Fuel mileage isn't that big of a concern for me, as we have cars we drive as daily drivers.
Is that XLT the best all terrain for towing you think? Looks pretty highway friendly.
Just got the AT3 lt on my Tacoma and they handle horrible in the snow. I was sliding everywhere at really slow speeds. I ran some Toyo highway tires in snow last year and they handled the same. AT3 handle pretty good in mud and dirt though
I agree. I put a set of AT3 LTs on my Tacoma last fall. They are the worst tires that I have used in snow.
Well I believe it all depends on how you are trying to trek on slippery surfaces. Snow and ice are going to be very tricky regardless of what tire you use and I'll give you an example, during winter time one year it snowed overnight and my job usually puts out an alert for dangerous driving conditions but didn't this one time and the road to work was completely iced over and I was following several cars ahead of me and behind me and once we hit the iced part which ended up being most of the way, the first car wiped out and I was barely able to get away from the drivers that didn't know how to handle the situation. I pulled off the road, put my 2015 off road tacoma with Cooper at3's in 4x4 and left everyone behind and I was the only one headed towards work. These tires handled absolutely awesome and like I said, you have to know how to drive on these kind of surfaces from experience.
good info thank you for sharing. I run AT3 XLT on my Chevy 2500HD 6.6 on stock 18's they are great. On my Tundra-Toyo M/T 70k and now on R/T 33x12.50x20. Honestly the Coopers seem better. Toyo is more aggressive looking but the Coopers simply work. They are half to cost as well. I have been in snow, mud, rain etc. No noticeable noise.
Thank you for the nice explanation on three tires. Well done. I have a Ram 2500 and can't decide if I should go with the LT or XLT series. Noise isn't a huge factor or gas mileage for that matter, do you think so?
It really depends on how you want the tire to look. I think everything else is the same.
Xlts !
Great video!! 👍👍
And we all know everyone is picturing their truck with the At3 Xlt going thru some mud and driving to work on the highway. Even the small truck guys.😎 " I think I can get them At3 XLts on Chevy Colorado"
Right on!
Did you get them and if so how do they ride
Looking to replace my oe Wrangler Duratracs on my Silverado. They're great tires, but much too noisy for my purposes. I believe the Coopers would be a good choice, but are they quiet on the highway?
Cooper says the three peak snowflake symbol is only available on certain sizes of the Discoverer AT3 LT. Any idea which ones?
Great tires great review thanks , note 4 folks are not tire gooroo s Goodyear bought cooper recently
You are correct
I have the at3 4s on my 4runner 4x4, its been great so far in Colorado mountains
Awesome!
Which is best for a mix of snowy winter mountain roads and Ohio and Michigan roads?
All three would be fine. It all depends on which vehicle.
2019 ford f150 lariat 4x4
Stock OEM tires are Goodyear wranglers -P275/55R20
Towing a 6500# (with 600# hitch weight) travel trailer once a month through the summer.
Do I need E rated tires or would P or XL work?
GVWR of truck is 7000#
Rear axle is 3800#
Payload is 1762#
I do not off road but so like a bit more aggressive looking tire - hoping the 4s will fit that bill.
I’m debating between these tires and Nitto ridge grapplers. I have a 2018 ram 1500 eco diesel (lifting it 6” and putting 35x12.5x20s on) wanted to you what you do in my shoes? These XLTs or Nittos? Or any other recommendations you have
Just had my at34s recalled just wondering if you could enlightening me on what and why thank you
Sidewall Bulges.
Nice review.
Do you believe 4s is better on wet road than ko2? Mainly interesting for road driving
Yes, definitely
Thanks for the info, is the AT3 4S a LT tire? Also does it come in Size 275/70 R18? I have a 2021 Ram Rebel with Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac Tire but i find them a little bit noisy on the road and they are heavy tires. I'm looking for something with less noise and easier to roll for better mpg. Preferably winter rated. What do you recommend? Thank you
Try the Toyo Open Country AT3
Question I have a 2010 Silverado LS. 17 inch rim with fender flares. My friend and I were using the tire calculator and found the two following options: 305/65 on a 17 and 285/70 on a 17 rim. would that work since that truck is rated at 265/70 on 17inch rim? Right now im using 245/70 on 17 inch. but the fender flares make them look incredibly small
Quick question for you... I just bought a 2018 4Runner and frequently tow a trailer with 3 ATVs. Approximately 3,500 lb (gross weight). I don't want to over do it with the tire. Would recommend the 4S or LT? I had the XLTs on my old Jeep and they were great, but at times, a rough drive on the road. I appreciate your help.
You will be fine with the 4S. The LT would be 8 or 10 ply and make it ride rough.
@@CampusautoCo Thanks!
I know this is an old review but if someone reads this could you tell me if the Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S has a rim protector or not. I have not seen any info on this question anywhere. Thanks.
I don't think so.
They do not.
Going to buy 4s for my silverado. I do 95% highway driving. Little off road for fishing and hunting. Want a smooth quiet ride. Who ply would you recommend? Thanks. Love the videos
1500 or 2500?
1500
Hello - I'm also leaning to the cooper discoverer at3 4s - I have a 2011 Ford F150 4x4 Crew and live in Northeast Ohio - we get Lake effect snow at times - Go off road 5 %-maybe 10% - tow a little - mostly light loads (ATVs) - Have Michelin Defenders LTX and shoulder gone with 55K. Also considering Hankook AT2, Continental Terraincontact AT or HT, Firestone LE3 and General HTS60 - I saw you HT review - have not seen a AT review with above mentioned. Interested in your suggestion - I'm an easy going driver. Thank you Todd
Dot the Continental Terrain Contact AT. I do have two videos with that tire in it.
Looking for a tire for f-150,which can perform well in snow and slippery icy roads for Ontario weather , one of the advice people gave me is despite the truck has 4x4 , all terrain can land you in trouble when driving on snow and ice. So many pickup truck owners has advised to go winter tires and change them with all season in summer. Any advice on what to buy which also has aggressive looks
Try that Michelin Agilis Cross Climate.
I know Im late to the thread but between the Ko2 and the AT3 xlt which would yield better mpg?
Which is better cooper at3 xlt vs falken wildpeak LT AT3W? On a Jeep Wrangler if that matters?
I think the Falken would be better.
@@CampusautoCo would it matter that I’m in the south and mostly road? I do plan to go off road but mainly gravel road, some mud, and sand.
Would you say the cooper at3 xlt is quieter on the road than the bf Goodrich ko2? I'm looking for a tire for my 2010 fj cruiser. The ko2 are great and not that loud on the road but I'm thinking of trying the cooper's. I know the ko2 is probably a better tire but I like how the at3 xlt has an aggressive look and could possibly be quieter on the road?
Hi I have a 05 dodge ram 1500 I don't really do much off roading but I don't like the look of the 4s. What do you think about going with the Lt or XLT ?
The LT
@@CampusautoCo thanks
What is recommended for my 2020 ram limited 1500 with stock 22”s, I’m always on the highway but also like the agressive looks I rarely go off roading but also live in Chicago where it snows alot in the winter months.
Move out of that depressing hell hole and sell that pos and move somewhere where u can actually offroad and have fun absolutely zero public land to offroad at in illinois
I'm looking for something for my new F250. I do a lot of highway driving and like a quiet ride but I also need something I can push snow with in the winter here in Michigan. Any suggestions?
I'm watching this because I bought Nitto Ridge grapple tires and I think they suck! They are quiet and look cool..but on a wet road they will get you killed! Haven't experienced snow yet but can't imagine they will do well there either.
I have a 2016 f150 Ecooboost 4x4
Would this be a good pick in your honest opinion?? Thanks
S4 better wear life than wrangler adventure/kevlar for Tundras ? Thanks
Yes
Do you recommend AT3 XLT's for Chevy 1500 Trail Boss???
Sure. Don’t they come with Duratracs from the factory?
I would. They would look and perform great on that truck
I know you love the grabbers atx. But I don't do any off roading. Maybe to the odd fishing hole. I need a all terrain tire good in the winter but good on the pavement with good wear. Can you recommend anything. Thanks
This Cooper would be a good choice. The Continental Terrain Contact AT would be another good choice.
@@CampusautoCo thanks for the reply your video's are awesome. Keep up the great work. Cheers
What’s your view on the at3 xlt vs the bfg ko2 looking for a good tire for soft sand and snow?
K02 all the way.
@@CampusautoCo - What is your view on the at3 xlt vs the bfg ko2 for rainy/wet road conditions? Which would be safer? I don’t want to be hydroplaning or slipping if it rains.
My dad had ko2s when I had the old AT3s in Colorado. ko2s we’re not great in snow compared to the AT3s. Other than that they were both great in our experience.
@@CampusautoCo ko2 are just garbage and so overrated.
The Cooper at3 are much better.
So are the XLT acceptable in the ice snow and cold? I run KO2 usually. Might try the duratracs this winter. But. I'd try these first if they are any good. I gotta have white letters on my tires.
Duratraks are great
Yea they are acceptable on snow and ice.
@@CampusautoCo I went with the 275 70 18 Grabber ATX
@@IMiss_The90s How do you like ‘em?
@@Icutmetal I put 50,000km on them. Still about 3/8 tread or more. Sold em. Bought a second set. I prefer them to KO2.
Love the LT 6 ply .. 2000 4 Runner ..
I will be putting the AT3 4s on my Xterra in a week it will be a test to see how they do because I was going to put the Falken wildpeaks on my Sierra but may change my mind if these do well
Awesome!
How do you like them 8 months later?
@@jeffsnider7842 put them on the Xterra did great over the winter months. I also put them on my Sierra but I don't drive that much at all I did notice a gas mileage drop but that was expected as I went from a not very aggressive Goodyear SRA and jumped up a bigger size also
You got the lt and xlt backwards. Xlt is for the 3/4 ton towing and hauling
Hello. Do these tires feature white lettering on both sides or just on one of them?
One side
I thought I would try the AT3 XLT’s this time around on my 08 Toyota Tundra after reading a ton of reviews. They have been a great tire on wet, rainy weather but are absolutely horrible in any snow condition. I rotate religiously every 10k and they are wearing very quickly. I have an alignment done every time I put new tires on and it is spot on. If it looks like it might snow my traction control light comes on...... disappointed to say the least. I have tried different tire brands every time the truck is due for tires looking for the “one” brand that works the best on my truck. I had BFG’s on prior to these Coopers and will without a doubt be going back to BFG when these are worn out. I already dread next winter as there will still be tread left on the Coopers but I will be slip sliding away! They might work on some trucks but definitely not mine. They have been a big disappointment to say the least and they were not much cheaper than the BFG’s
Great feedback. I don't blame you for going with what works.
I have 35s on my truck and I love them.
But I hear the Ko2’s are horrible for wet road or rainy/slippery conditions. I hear the Coopers are much better for that situation.
@@anthonygiordano3991 I just rolled 50 thousand kilometres on these Coopers, they are getting worse in wet conditions now and have become quite noisy. I can’t wait till these are worn enough to replace them with BFG
@@jackjuby9520 - I don’t know what to believe anymore.. 🤷🏻♂️ I’m hearing the same spiel from both sides.
I am considering the Cooper Discoverer A/T All-Season 265/70R16 112T as for Ram 1500 , Good choice ?
