π‘ Is the Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT 235/80R17 a Good Tire?
The Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT 235/80R17 is an all-season all-terrain tire designed for full-size pickup trucks and SUVs. It delivers solid dry traction and adequate wet performance thanks to its aggressive tread pattern with variable-pitch tread blocks for enhanced grip. Ride comfort is firm but controlled with moderate road noise typical of all-terrain designs, while tread life appears competitive for the category. Rated Good by TireRack based on 64 consumer surveys, it handles mixed on-road and light off-road conditions well but lacks the specialized winter traction of dedicated snow tires. Currently priced from $276.99, it is available through major online tire retailers.

The Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT 235/80R17 is an all-terrain tire, designed for pickup, crossover, and SUV drivers who prioritize off-road capability and year-round reliability in diverse driving conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on balancing aggressive off-road traction with comfortable on-road performance through specialized rubber compounds and interlocking tread blocks.
The tire features tough, interlocking tread blocks engineered for off-road action, with individual lug designs optimized for improved tread life and resistance to irregular wear. Alternating scoop lugs in the shoulders work alongside distinctive hook sidewall molding to provide grip in gravel and loose soil. The specialized rubber compound meets severe snow service requirements, earning the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol for light snow capability. Driver feedback points to strong wet and dry traction performance, with good comfort levels and dependable handling across varied terrain.
Compared to highway-focused tires, it adds off-road traction while maintaining reasonable on-road manners. Overall, it's a solid choice for trucks and SUVs used for mixed driving that includes dirt roads, gravel paths, and seasonal weather challenges.

"Worth considering if you need reliable all-terrain performance for both daily driving and weekend adventures. Tread noise on highways is more noticeable than dedicated street tires."
