Tires DUNLOP or Cooper
New tires are Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT 285/75R17, which have a 129 load rating (4,080lbs) and only weigh 56lbs. They are 11.2” wide so hopefully don’t rub like the BFG’s (will be installed next week), and weighing 10lbs less per tire is a big difference which will help the MPG. And a 60k mile warranty is nice.
Always go AT tires, they provide the best of all worlds, especially when you don't take the vehicle off road. I swear by Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT's and BFG T/A KO3's
I put 90k on my original Dunlop tires, and will just be replacing them now. Great tires!
I just got my second set of Cooper Discoverers (225/70/R15).
The updated version are more aggressive looking and there’s a little more road noise now, but not bad.
My old set performed extremely well in rain, mud, snow, ice, and regular daily driving. They also outlasted their high mileage rating, and I’m averaging 27mpg on my 2016. Zero complaints.
I have had them since the end of February this year. Drives pretty quiet and has excellent road handling and performance, especially when raining. I am pretty happy with them.
I had two sets of Dunlop Sport on my C class in the past, my opinion are that they are good quality/price ratio but not top tier. I would personally consider getting Dunlop in the future.
I bought a set of Sportsmart mk3 last year on my mt09, and I have to say, It's the best choice I've made. The rear is now done after 15k kms, and I ride quite aggressive, power wheelies, fast twisties. I didn't expect it to last this long.
cooper tires are great, firestones will ride like shit (i have all season firestones ._.)
Bought a set a year ago 235/70/15 and they catch every pebble in the road and are so thin they keep popping pin holes in them, not to mention cracking on the inner parts of the tread and they are almost new.
I am dissappointed with them from use. Yes I was a lil hard on them, didn't constantly hammer down on them but I am at 5 for tread on the front and the back is bald now and have only 24000 miles/39000kms out of them.
