Check availability & current price βAbout This Tire
The Cooper Discoverer Rugged Trek 265/70R16 is an all-terrain tire, designed for pickup truck, crossover, and full-size SUV drivers who prioritize capable off-road performance and comfortable on-road driving in everyday use. Its tread design and compound focus on balancing aggressive off-road traction with highway stability and all-season grip, including light snow conditions.
The tire features a durable all-season tread compound molded into a bold, symmetric tread pattern engineered for even wear and longer tread life than traditional off-road focused tires. Cooper's Stable Trac Technology is built into the inboard tread blocks to provide road stability and control, while omni-directional micro gauge siping enhances grip on both pavement and rough surfaces. Whisper Grooves between the center and outer tread areas help reduce road noise for improved comfort. Driver feedback points to excellent wet and dry traction capabilities, with good comfort levels and predictable handling response in daily driving situations.
Compared to traditional all-terrain tires, it leans more toward off-road durability while remaining more livable on the road than a full mud-terrain setup. Overall, it's a solid choice for truck and SUV owners used primarily for mixed driving conditions in both on-road and light off-road environments.
