Cooper Discoverer ATP 265 75 16
Ok I know there is not a lot of info on these tires that I could find but what I have found they say it is a good tire so I picked up a set for my t4r they was 475 shipped plus 40 buck to have them mounted an balanced...
I thought I would start this threaded and update it as I tested these tire out..
Here is what I like so far
Road noise is low
Ride is great
The price was more than right.
Will update more as they will be test over the next few weeks.

I've had mine for about 7 months and have no complaints. They handle the trail fairly well and are good on the road. Can't beat them for that price!

Wow, thats a good deal. I got mine from Discount Tire as well back in December. I have Discoverer 265 75 H/Ts and love them. I dont know why the H/Ts are more expensive than the A/Ts thought. I just looked on the website and the H/Ts are $20 more a piece. I would think it would be the opposite.
Im thinking my next tire will be a 285 75 Discoverer AT

Hmmm. $720 shipped for a set of 285's. I've been cruising craigslist and looking at $350-600 for various used sets. Might be worth a try.
Any of you guys air down regularly when you hit the trail? Any feedback in that regard? They don't say much about the sidewall construction on the website.

The KM2 is a good tire, my guess is that user error may have been a factor  Regardless, it's good they didn't get stuck

The Discoverer A/T 285s have a average review of 9.4/10 on Discount Tires website. Ive never seen a higher review. You should definately give them a try. Then you can tell me all about them before I decide to buy them
