πŸ’‘ Is the Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT 255/65R17 a Good Tire?

The Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT 255/65R17 is an all-season all-terrain tire designed for mid-size SUVs and crossovers. It delivers balanced on-road handling and light off-road traction on gravel and dirt surfaces through its hybrid tread design with stable shoulder blocks. Ride comfort is reasonable for an all-terrain tire, though road noise is noticeable at highway speeds compared to traditional touring tires. Tread life is adequate for mixed-use driving but falls short of dedicated highway tires. Rated 3.5/5 by TirePath, it offers versatile capability for occasional off-road ventures but is not optimized for serious trail use or maximum on-road refinement. Currently priced from $247.99, it is available through major online tire retailers.

About This Tire

The Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT 255/65R17 is an all-terrain tire designed for SUV and light truck drivers who prioritize versatile traction and year-round capability in mixed driving conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on balancing on-road stability with off-road traction across diverse terrain types.

This tire features Cooper's all-terrain construction with aggressive tread blocks and siping patterns engineered to handle both pavement and trail surfaces. The 255/65R17 sizing provides a solid contact patch for medium to full-size SUVs and pickup trucks, while the compound formulation targets consistent performance across temperature ranges. Without available driver evaluation data, the tire's real-world performance characteristics remain to be established through user experience.
