Tires DUNLOP or Cooper
Slippery situations involving rain and snow have fully convinced me of their grip. Get them. I have 22s and still bulldoze through most. Wet, muddy hills though? No problem. Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S 285/50/22 is specifically what I have. Very quiet.
I just got them for my Accord last week. So far they have been a good buy. They are far quieter and feel grippier on wet pavement than the Goodyear Eagle LS-2s that they replaced. I'll ll have to see how they wear, and feel how their performance changes over time.
Put a set on my 2017 Ford Explorer Limited up sized slightly 255/55/20 . Had for 2 weeks and have been very pleased with the performance. We have had heavy rain, Snow and ice and they have been very predictable.
The stock tires actually perform quite well (my stock were Dunlop AT20 Grandtreks). For anything other than mud, fantastic. Sand and greenlaning were no problem.
I’d recommend Cooper Discoverer STT Pro, they handle well as daily driver offroad tires, road noise is not that bad on the highway and their mud and snow performance is very good.
Great tire with awesome grip; however I prefer the q4 because the 5s wear out faster.
The Q5/Q5S is a good fire and has great grip with relatively low maintenance in the sense that you don't need to run warmers. What does suck is the wear, which is pretty aggressive ????
A few weeks ago, on my brand new 2023 base model I swapped out my stock Dunlops for the Continental DWS06 Plus A/S tires and have been miserable since. Yes the Continentals did their job on a recent ski trip where the roads were a mix of ice, wet and snow, but on dry roads I feel like the car handling has diminished significantly (sidewall flex) and just don’t enjoy driving it in a spirited way now. The Dunlops are a bit of a harsher ride and nosier but I’ll take that anyway over these Continentals in conditions without ice or snow.
Just bought 4 new cooper pro control tires. Been driving for a week and they are a bit loud and have a slight shake or vibration. Already took the car in to double check balance and they said it is fine. I am still getting the vibration.
I had these tires for about 8-10k miles then took them off. They did ok for turns and handling but I did not have good overall experience
