Cooper tires very good. Just had them installed. No noise great in the rain. Much better than those goodyear garbage tired.

I have them here in the UK.
All pavement driving and have a T bar lift.
They are much better than the stock Goodyears with better handling in the rain.
I have over 27K miles on them and they still have over 3mm+ left on the tread.
I rotate at every oil change 5K and have them between 38 and 42 PSI depending on laod etc on my 20's.
Their size is 275 60x20.
The road noise is better than the Goodyears and not even noticeable.
Hope this helps?
Al.

I put Coopers on my stock 20s because of two reasons. One, they had a higher treadware rating (460 I think) than the stock tires which means they would last longer and two, they were cheaper than a set of the stock tires I had. I bought a brand new set of Coopers off ebay for 300 plus 100 to ship and another 100 to mount and balance one I got them here. Everyone around me locally wanted 750+.

Default Cooper Discoverer H/T Plus

I just put a set of 255-55-18 cooper Discoverer H/T PLus on my 06 Saab 9-7X. The tires are GREAT!! The installer tried to talk me into a set of Sumi tires that were $60 more per tire. I wanted an american tire put on. Don't ever think twice about putting on a set of Cooper tires on anything you own!!!
I will only buy and drive on Cooper tires.

Ok I've tried every route besides bringing this thread back from the dead but I am heavily considering these tires. I'm just wondering approx. how many miles I can get out of them. Right now I have the Goodyear Wrangler SR-As. They have 32,000 miles on them and they are due to be thrown away. So I'm just wondering if the tire in this thread is worth the investment. If you guys have any other suggestions for a good highway tire and I am all ears, or eyes.

I have run 285/50-20 for two years. I think they are a very nice tire for the money.

How long do you think they will last? If you say 50,000+ I will buy them.
