I got my new tires mounted up today and I decided to go with the Cooper Discoverer AT3's. I did quite a bit of research into these or the Cooper zeon LTZ's and there was just more good things pointing in the direction of the Discoverers( designed by the MT/DC guys, 55,000 mile warranty, tire reviews from all over the place, slightly more aggressive tread pattern than the A/T tire and last but not least the $75.00 MIR offered my Cooper on these tires. I got a really good deal on them when two local tire shops got to price beating each other. 275/60/20 tires, mounted and balanced, lifetime repair, lifetime rotation, free alignment, free tire disposal,(one of the tire techs loaded my old tires right into the back of his pick-up),and tax for $919.92. Let me know what you guys think.
I feel like I farted in church, every just seems to be looking at my post! No comments on my AT3's? God bad or indifferent, you won't hurt my feelings.
I am gonna test them out in the rain today, it has been pouring all night. As far as the road noise there is absolutely no road noise at all. I thought I would get at least a little bit but there is none at all.
Even though the individual blocks are fairly large and aggressive (which usually would make a poor wet pavement tire), I think with the decent amount of siping they should do fine...

Drove to work this morning in a nice steady downpour and the new tires handled very well. I was even looking for more standing water to run through just to make sure they really were handling that well. Loving them so far hope to get a chance to get off road this weekend and try them out in some mud. There seems to be plenty of that right now.
No 08 ram needs 20s and 35s might be more price wise but they sure are nice
The 20's are too heavy and I would like all the weight savings I can. And I can't justify the extra cost of tires for 20's. I paid almost $1400 this summer for the tires I have now. And I hear tires for 17's are cheaper due to being more available in bigger sizes.
