πŸ’‘ Is the Cooper Discoverer S/T Maxx 235/85R16 a Good Tire?

The Cooper Discoverer S/T Maxx 235/85R16 is an all-season commercial all-terrain tire designed for work trucks, full-size SUVs, and cargo vans. It delivers solid off-road traction on gravel and dirt surfaces while maintaining adequate highway performance through its aggressive tread blocks and cut-and-chip resistant compound. Ride comfort is firm with noticeable road noise at highway speeds, typical of heavy-duty all-terrain designs. Tread life is competitive for commercial applications in its category. Rated Good by TireRack based on 72 consumer surveys, it excels in durability and moderate off-road conditions but is not optimized for fuel economy or quiet highway cruising. Currently priced from $287.99, it is available through major online tire retailers.

About This Tire

The Cooper Discoverer S/T Maxx 235/85R16 is an all-terrain tire, designed for pickup truck, SUV, and van drivers who prioritize off-road capability and year-round traction in demanding conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on cut-and-chip resistance, stone ejection, and maintaining traction across loose terrain while delivering confident performance on paved roads.

The tire features a symmetric hybrid four-five rib design with an open tread pattern and multiple block edges for clawing traction on soft soil, rocks, and gravel. Stone ejector ribs and non-parallel groove walls help prevent rock retention and stone drilling, while in-block sipes create biting edges for wet weather performance. Driver feedback points to strong wet weather performance and excellent comfort levels, with solid dry traction and good long-term durability in real-world use.

Compared to highway-focused tires, it adds significant off-road traction while maintaining reasonable on-road manners and noise control. Overall, it's a solid choice for work trucks and recreational vehicles used for job site access, gravel roads, and moderate off-road adventures where durability and all-weather capability are essential.
