Tires YOKOHAMA or Cooper

after looking online to see what the best bang for the buck *appears* to be, the Cooper Discoverer All-Terrain for $114/each is a pretty bangin' deal. I haven't loved Cooper's wet traction historically but they've made big strides in the past few years about catching up with that.

I always used Yokohama, but that was on a dodge Dakota. I love Yokohama tires personally

This doesn't apply to you, as you're in California, but my winter tires are Yokohama and they're the best winter tires I've ever had. I've had Michelin, Pirelli, Bridgestone.

I like Cooper tires but any brand listed here works great

Yokohama are best high quality for the $. They cost less than Michelin, continental, etc but perform just as well, imo.

Yokohama is your best bang for the buck on the list. You are never going to be mad about going with the Michelins though.

The Cooper tires I have owned all gave good value. And they were hands-down the best tires I have ever owned for wet conditions.

The Evolution MTs are great unless you’re doing hardcore rock-crawling, since the sidewalls aren’t quite as strong as the more expensive MTs like the KM3s, etc. The Coopers are also the lightest MT I’ve seen, which is a plus.

I am currently running some Yokohama Avid H4s, I have not been very impressed with them dry road handleing is nice however, snow and water is another story. I only got close to 35k out of these tires and I am looking for something that handles the same if not better and will most importantly give me better tread wear.

Soooo yes and no. I live in Fairbanks, AK and they honestly did pretty decent for deep snow HOWEVER once it went -40°F and that snow slowly turned into hardpack I instantly swapped them out for Falken AT Trails. Although not as good as a dedicated winter tire they did WAYYYY better than the Avid GTs which almost lead me into a few close calls since THEY HAD ABSOLUTELY 0 TRACTION
