Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT 275/85 R17 Ford F 150 1,000 miles November 10, 2025
Haven't had these for long, but have taken them on a wide variety of surfaces. So far very pleased with them and look forward to see how well they perform in winter conditions. I was looking for a good all around LT AT tire that wouldn't fall flat in inclement weather, I think these fit that well.
