The Discoverer A/T3LT is Cooper's On-Road All-Terrain tire designed for the drivers of pickup trucks, work vehicles and full-size SUVs who need a tire that provides the rugged durability required to keep up with their active lifestyles. Engineered to tackle dirt, gravel, mud and the urban jungle, the Discoverer A/T3LT combines off-road prowess with agreeable on-road comfort and year-round traction, including light snow traction that meets the tire industry's severe snow service rating requirements and earns the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.
Durable-Tread Technology combines a shred-resistant silica compound with the Discoverer A/T3LT 's next-generation all-terrain tread pattern. Cooper's Even Wear Arc Technology optimizes the shape of the footprint for balanced pressure at the contact patch, improving handling and promoting even treadwear. The tread pattern is designed to aid dry traction, while Whisper Grooves between the outboard tread blocks help reduce noise throughout the tire's life. Stone ejector ledges help prevent punctures due to stone drilling, and the alternating scoop and cleat lugs in the shoulder are designed to provide grip on rock, in thick mud or loose soil. Deep, circumferential channels and wide, lateral notches improve hydroplaning resistance, while multiple zigzag sipes in the independent tread blocks create the biting edges needed for traction in slippery conditions. Snow Groove Technology uses saw-tooth block edges to trap snow in the tread for effective snow-to-snow traction.
The internal construction of the Discoverer A/T3LT consists of a robust, two-ply polyester casing. A single-ply, nylon reinforcement above two high-strength steel belts further increases durability and handling response, along with providing high-speed stability.
Note: While non-winter tires featuring the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol may provide additional longitudinal snow traction beyond what all-season (M+S) tires not bearing the symbol can deliver, they do not match the capability of a true winter tire in all adverse weather conditions.
El Discoverer A/T3LT de Cooper pertenece a la categoría: Dentro/Fuera De Carretera Todoterreno y fue diseñado para conductores de picops, vehículos de trabajo y vehículos utilitarios deportivos (SUV, por sus siglas en inglés) grandes, que necesitan un neumático que proporcione la resistencia y durabilidad requerida para mantener sus estilos activos de vida. Fabricado para lidiar con tierra, grava, lodo y la jungla urbana, el Discoverer A/T3LT, combina destreza todoterreno con una comodidad agradable en carreteras y tracción durante todo el año, incluyendo superficies con poca nieve, lo cual le permite cumplir con los requerimientos de la industria en cuanto a nieve severa y le permite poseer el símbolo “tres picos montaña/copo de nieve”, 3PMSF (three-peak mountain snowflake symbol, 3PMSF).
La tecnología "Durable-Tread" combina un compuesto de caucho con sílice resistente a desgarros, con el patrón de la generación más reciente todoterreno del Discoverer A/T3LT. La tecnología "Even Wear Arc" de Cooper optimiza la forma de la huella para obtener una presión balanceada en el área de contacto, mejorando la maniobrabilidad y proporcionando un desgaste parejo. El patrón de la huella ha sido diseñado para mejorar la tracción sobre superficies mojadas, mientras que ranuras "Whisper Grooves" entre los bloques externos ayudan a reducir el ruido a través del ciclo de vida del neumático. Soportes para expulsar piedras ayudan a prevenir perforaciones y hendiduras alternadas en la parte exterior de los hombros, proporcionan tracción en rocas, lodo espeso y superficies sueltas. Canales circunferenciales anchos y ranuras laterales profundas mejoran la resistencia al deslizamiento sobre agua (hydroplaning), mientras que múltiples ranuras pequeñas tipo zigzag en los bloques de la huella, crean la cantidad de bordes adherentes para proporcionar tracción sobre superficies resbalosas. La tecnología "Snow Groove" utiliza bordes con dientes serrados para atrapar nieve en la huella para mejorar la tracción nieve con nieve.
La construcción interna del Discoverer A/T3LT cuenta con una estructura robusta de dos capas de poliéster. Una capa de refuerzo de nailon por encima de dos correas de acero de gran fortaleza, aumenta aún más la durabilidad y la respuesta al girar el volante, además de proporcionar estabilidad a velocidades elevadas.
Nota: Mientras los neumáticos no identificados para su uso en invierno, pero con el símbolo tres picos montaña copo de nieve, 3PMSF (Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake, 3PMSF) podrían proporcionar mayor tracción longitudinal en nieve, que la ofrecida por neumáticos para toda estación (M+S) sin el símbolo 3PMSF. Sin embargo, ninguno iguala la capacidad de un neumático verdaderamente para invierno, en climas con condiciones adversas.

...The wet weather handeling is the best I have experienced of any tire I have tried. The tires handle snow and ice like a dedicated winter tire...
These tires are great on out 3/4ton 4x4 Suburban. The wet weather handeling is the best I have experienced of any tire I have tried. The tires handle snow and ice like a dedicated winter tire. They are quiet if rotated every 5K. The tread wear is faster than other highway tires, but the trade is worth every mile as the traction has impressed consistently. The tires can be hoppy if you don't have them roadforce balanced properly where they match the tire and rim for proper runout. Absolutely worth the money, always love a fresh set, and they work well until the tread wears to the indicator bars. A+ for an all-season highway tire that will concur rain, snow, dirt, and rocky terrain. They load up a bit in the mud, but where we live the clay will coat a mud terrain too... get snow chains and use them for mudding if you really need to get somewhere crazy.

...and deep snow traction has been great...
This tire has a much smaller diameter than the OEM Goodyears despite being the same size. When viewed back to back, the AT3 LT is actually a whole inch smaller in diameter, which is unacceptable to me, and I am accounting for treadwear.
Pros: Treadwear has been very good, and deep snow traction has been great.
Cons: Sizing, noisy for a relatively mild looking tread pattern. Doesn’t particularly excel in any other area, although that could be considered a pro for a balanced AT tire.

...In the snow rushing to the airport we were safe and I was able to trust the tires. They are a perfect combination of winter and summer tire for me, ... predictable in snow and wet.
Thoroughly impressed and really happy with my purchase. I had a pop-up camper on the back of my truck and the tires were responsive and supportive. In the snow rushing to the airport we were safe and I was able to trust the tires. They are a perfect combination of winter and summer tire for me, quiet and good milage on the highway, aggressive when off road, and predictable in snow and wet.

...Good traction all around, even when you put it in sport mode and stomp on the gas. Can feel a bit squishy in corners, but never lost traction...
Overall a great choice. Quiet ride in all conditions - really noticeable when driving on ground-down highway between these tires and other vehicles. Good traction all around, even when you put it in sport mode and stomp on the gas. Can feel a bit squishy in corners, but never lost traction. Did notice a drop in MPG (about 2) after changing from the stock all-seasons that came with the truck. Treadwear is a bit iffy - have some odd center wear like they were severely overinflated, even though I'm religious about maintaining proper inflation and alignment. However, did a lot of heavy towing recently so I'm going to blame that. Definitely staying with Cooper AT3s.

Smooth ride, even at highway speeds. Surprisingly quiet...
Smooth ride, even at highway speeds. Surprisingly quiet. Load rating of these tires has made it easier to haul my trailer and tractor. When towing, my truck has more controlled steering due to less drag on the rear. I've always had good luck with Cooper tires but these are the best truck tires I've ever owned. The tires hug the road, no matter the weather. Haven't had any hydroplaning issues on roads. On the job site they cut through mud and dirt easily. I rarely have to use the four wheel drive. I wouldn't go "mudding" with these tires but they aren't made for that. Haven’t had them in the snow and ice yet so I can't comment on winter driving but on wet, dry asphalt and in the mud these are the best truck tires I've owned. Too bad they are discontinuing these tires. I would definitely buy them again.
