The Discoverer A/T3XLT 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/T3XLT combines off-road prowess with agreeable on-road comfort and year-round traction, including in light snow.

Durable-Tread Technology combines a shred-resistant silica compound with the Discoverer A/T3XLT'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 Rugged Traction Shoulders feature alternating scoop and cleat lugs and biting edges designed for 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/T3XLT 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.

...Road noise doesn't exist, wet and dry performance are exceptional...

I've recommended these to everyone, honestly so grateful I found these tires. Road noise doesn't exist, wet and dry performance are exceptional. Amazing treadwear, what more could you ask for. On a another note I've had some scary curb hits, lifted trucks are not for most parking lots, these sidewalls have been thoroughly vetted. I've had them rotated 3 times, they have towed 8k plus for over 3k miles. They still role perfectly round. I run them at 42 psi, my installer put them at 55 psi.

...I use it everywhere such as in deep snow, on ice, mud, rocks, sand and highway! ... Then when it's time to turn off onto back roads, fire roads, gutted roads, muddy roads, snowstorm/blizzard enhanced travel and more...these tires always come through...

Just blown away by this tire. I use it everywhere such as deep snow, ice, mud, rocks, sand and highway! It is a super quiet tire on the freeway as I even forget I'm driving AT tires at speed. Then when it's time to turn off onto back roads, fire roads, gutted roads, muddy roads, snowstorm/blizzard enhanced travel and more...these tires always come through. I'd say these Discoverer XLT's are way better than any Toyo or similar, let alone the famous KO2 which should only be reserved for rides to starbucks since those both ---- in most conditions, though they look good and aggressive. The Discoverer AT3 XLT's have an aggressive look as well but actually come through for me every time. I am super impressed. I have put this model tire on my brand new 2023 F150 as well and they are perfectly adept for me to conquer everything. People forget that tires make the drive, not all of the technology from the truck manufacturer cuz without great tires for the condition you're in, the super crawl mode or Baja mode won't work worth a crap. Get some great tires and I recommend these if you want to be happy about your choice.

I live in Montana on a long dirt road and these tires have yet to fail me in the dirt, light snow, deep snow, and rocky trails. These are obviously by no means rock crawling tires, but they are able to hold their own on the trails around here.

After going through various tire brands & models, I finally found the absolute perfect tire that I'm never giving up. I'm on my second set and went from 315/70R17 to 35x12.50R20

Insanely perfect ride quality, and in 3rd Gen Ram 2500/3500's ride quality is highly sought after and these tires make a massive difference. There also super quiet on the highway

I highly recommend these tires to everyone looking for amazing ride quality, handling, traction and great tread life

...great wet traction, great snow traction...

Solid tire! Very pleasant on pavement - low noise, great handling. On trails it EATS terrain. Super stable and tough. Great wet traction, great snow traction. Can't say for sand, but got me through some squelchy mud track with no issues. Forded a river too. Zero complaints. Looks great on my 2011 Land Cruiser. Definitely my new tire...

...The AT3 XLT stick on road and off... They are better then both the Goodyears and the BFG in every way...

To be honest I had not heard of Cooper tires 6 months ago. I am glad I have now. Cooper makes tires for may others brands including Mickey Thompson. I did a lot of research and the ratings were so good I had to try them out. They are great tires. I would recommend them highly. Now let me tell you why. I have a 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL and it had street tires on it. Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar 245/75/17 (stock tires). On a jeep they look like I skipped leg day. They worked well but did not look "Jeepish" . The Goodyears worked good on road and well off road too. I did not like the way they looked so I bought a set of Rubicon take off's with the BFG KO2 285/70/17 .. They looked good but that was it. Crap tires. I lost 6 MPG they dont stick on the road at more than 20% throttle . Off road they work better than the stock tires but not by a lot. The BFG extra sized could account for the better off road. They gave up a lot on road. I put about 6000 miles on BFG and would not recommend them to anyone I sold them and got the COOPER AT3 XLT and they are much better than the BFG KO2 in every way. The AT3 XLT stick on road and off. They are quieter smoother and I got back 3 of the 6 MPG that I lost. They are better then both the Goodyears and the BFG in every way. The Coopers AT3 XLT have good side bitters and look Jeep worthy. The Coppers are just a tad larger then the BFG in the same size. The Cooper AT3 XLT 285/70/17 are a great tire. If you are looking for a good Jeep tire give this a good hard look. It looks more aggressive in real life then in the photos. Another note the Coopers are an E load range so stronger. if you are thinking BFG KO2 get the Coopers AT3 XLT it is better in every way.

...I can't express how great of a difference my ride is! Not only it is 70% quieter, but it's 80% softer/smoother. I have a rough road on my daily commute, and these tires absorb nearly all road roughness...

The original tires on my truck were nearly gone and old. They were the AT Hankook's. I purchased a set of these Coopers after much research. I can't express how great of a difference my ride is! Not only it is about 70% quieter, but it's about 80% softer/smoother. I have a rough road on my daily commute, and these tires absorb nearly all road roughness. I also have to drive in some muddy conditions here and there. The truck would often slip and get stuck, but with these tires, I lose no traction. Will definitely purchase again!

I just checked my mileage on this set of tires that I purchased in February 2020. I can't believe it but I'm at 65,000 on them and still have plenty of life left. These are on my Toyota Tacoma. I have my alignment locked in place w/ tabs (aside from toe) and I do rotate tires (Back to Front, Front Crossed to Back) each oil change and I do 8-9k mile interval changes. These tires continue to impress. If they ever wear out I'm getting them again. Relatively light compared to others in it's category too.
Wet performance is good. No problems in snow. Dry and off road is great.
