Tires Hankook or Cooper

I’ve had Hankook DynaPro HT on my 06 4Runner for 8 years. No issues, only 40K. Plenty of tread. But time to replace soon.

Ive run Coopers for years on my vehicles. Currently have the Endeavor Plus tires on the AWD Equinox. Had them about a year now. Like them a lot.

I had Cooper ATPs on my previous truck and was really happy with them. I sold the truck when the tires had like 40k on them and they probably had another 15-20k left in them. They were quiet and good in the rain.

I've got a set of discoverer at3 4s as my summer tires and discoverer snow claws for the winter. They're good tires for summer though, especially for the price I paid. Probably 80% as good as a Michelin or BF Goodrich at 60% of the price. The snow claws have been excellent.

Some more budget friendly brands that make good tires are Hankook.

Yes, it is worth it to spend more money. They will last longer, be more comfortable, have more grip, and make less noise.

We just replaced the stock Yokos with Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail ATs. Don't have a lot of miles on them yet but they're quiet so far and have performed well in the rain.

My favs: Hankook kinergy PT last forever. Michelin crossclimate 2 are great in weather. Uniroyal tiger paw are a decent bargain.

Of those three, I'd go with Coopers

A buddy of mine had them installed on his Honda. He is a cheap guy, he took them because of the great price he got from a local tire shop. His road noise was up at least 50%.
