Tires Cooper or OEM FORD

I’ve lived in northern Colorado my whole driving life and I think the mav handles great. I still have the stock tires on and while I do drive very carefully when it’s snowy I have had almost no slipping/sliding

Easily, Coopers. Ran the AT3 on my last truck (Silverado). Had right at 58,000 miles on them when I sold the truck with plenty of life left on the tires.

I’ve ran BFG KO2, Cooper AT3, Cooper STT Pro, and Cooper ST Maxx. All of them have been good tires but my favorite by far were the ST Maxx.

Replaced with Cooper AT3 XLT, which also have the RWL sidewall like the STT, and am over 50% tread at 38k miles. They are quieter, too.

Go with your Uncle Cooper. I’m on my second set on my Wrangler and have had great luck with them.

Running the cooper's in a 35x12.5 currently and they are LOUD as expected but they sure do look good lol ????

Coopers, they performed better year round mud-ice/snow over the BFG. I’ve been hearing a lot about balancing issues with BFG from the tire shop we use too.

Actual performance? Cooper AT3s (no joke, those tires are freaking amazing)

I liked the handling but the OEM tires were trash (as they often are). Luckily I ran over some road debris that caused to get a new set of tires anyway. Once that was sorted out it is pretty entertaining.

My experience with the Cooper AT3:

2011 Land Rover LR4. I Put about 50k miles on the set in 2 years. No punctures.

* Excellent on road manners

* Quiet, smooth.

* Even tread ware

* AWFUL (I.E. not safe) Snow and ice performance

* Poor mud traction, poor gravel traction, mehh wet traction.
