santalars Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Got my new tires fitted this weekend. Cooper Discoverer STT. My first impression is that it was the right decision. Have expected that they are much louder on the road, but there is just a bearly noticable humming. I also can't complain about the on road performance. Haven't tested them in any real off-road conidtions yet, but will report then. Size is 265/75-16. I had 235/85-16 fitted before. There is a noticable loss of power at motorway speeds due to the increased width, but it's acceptable. As you can see in the pictures, this is the absulote max size my landy can take (2" lift) as they slightly start rubbing in the rear wheel arches with twisted axles. Apart from all the reasonable things: they are looking great on the truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santalars Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 Have a look at camskill.co.uk. They will give you a shipping rate online as well. I paid €550 including shipping to Ireland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonycougar Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I've just had some cooper Discoverers fitted too, although mine are the slightly less agressive ST's. I have another set of proper muds and I needed some with more road bias too for when I am not mud plugging. I am really liking mine too.

scatt Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Ive had 33x12.50 cooper stt's on for a year and they have been great!!! They have been used hard offroad on hard onroad with trailer towing etc. They wear well, mine have done 11700 miles in year and show no signs of wearing out anytime soon.
