πŸ’‘ Is the Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT 235/85R16 a Good Tire?

The Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT 235/85R16 is an all-season all-terrain tire designed for full-size pickup trucks and large SUVs. It delivers solid off-road traction on dirt and gravel while maintaining adequate highway performance through its aggressive tread blocks and reinforced sidewall construction. Ride comfort is firm with noticeable road noise at highway speeds, typical of all-terrain designs prioritizing durability over refinement. Tread life appears competitive for the all-terrain category based on its robust construction. Rated Good by TireRack based on 64 consumer surveys, it handles mixed driving conditions well but lacks the on-road comfort and quietness of highway-oriented tires. Currently priced from $231.99, it is available through major online tire retailers.

About This Tire

The Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT 235/85R16 is an all-terrain tire, designed for pickup, crossover, and SUV drivers who prioritize off-road capability and year-round traction in everyday driving. Its tread design and compound focus on balancing aggressive off-road traction with on-road comfort through interlocking tread blocks and specialized rubber compounds.

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 with distinctive hook sidewall molding to enhance grip in gravel and loose soil. The tire meets severe snow service requirements and displays the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol for winter capability. Driver feedback points to strong wet and dry performance, with good comfort levels and reliable traction across varied conditions.

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 trails, work sites, and seasonal weather challenges.
