The Discoverer EnduraMax is Cooper's Crossover/SUV Touring All-Season tire designed for the drivers of crossovers, SUVs and pickup trucks looking for a tire that combines the ride comfort and light handling of a touring tire with the enhanced durability provided by integrating all-terrain tire technology. The Discoverer EnduraMax is an all-weather tire developed to deliver confident all-season performance year-round, with light snow traction that meets industry severe snow service requirements and receives the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.
Cooper's Durable-Tread Technology helps the Discoverer EnduraMax resist abrasion and wear from rough conditions, and is cut- and chip-resistant for impressive endurance on gravel roads. The symmetric pattern is designed to minimize tread noise for a quiet experience. Four wide, circumferential grooves work with lateral notches to help evacuate water from the contact patch for enhanced hydroplaning resistance, while sipes and edges of the independent tread blocks deliver traction in wet conditions. Winter Grip Technology utilizes sawtooth grooves for grip in snow, while zigzag sipes in the shoulders provide traction on slick surfaces.
The internal construction of the Discoverer EnduraMax is designed to retain its shape over rough and uneven surfaces for even pressure and constant contact with the road. Armor Belt Technology features extra strength, light truck steel belts to provide enhanced strength, and a nylon reinforcement delivers high-speed capability and durability.
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 may deliver, they do not match the capability of a true winter tire in all adverse weather conditions.
El neumático Discoverer EnduraMax de Cooper pertenece a la categoría: Turismo Para Toda Estación (Crossover/SUV) y fue diseñado para conductores de utiliautos (crossovers), vehículos utilitarios deportivos (SUV, por sus siglas en inglés) y picops que buscan un neumático que combine la comodidad del andar y maniobrabilidad de un neumático de turismo, con la mayor durabilidad proporcionada por la integración de la tecnología para neumáticos todoterreno. El Discoverer EnduraMax ha sido desarrollado para proporcionar un rendimiento confiable durante las cuatro estaciones del año, y al ofrecer tracción sobre superficies con poca nieve, satisface requisitos de la industria, en relación a condiciones de nieve severa, y cuenta con el símbolo “tres picos montaña/copo de nieve”, 3PMSF (three-peak mountain snowflake symbol, 3PMSF).
La tecnología "Durable-Tread" de Cooper ayuda al Discoverer EnduraMax a resistir abrasión y desgaste debido a condiciones duras, además es resistente a cortes y laceraciones, lo cual permite una durabilidad impresionante, al ser usado en carreteras de piedra. El patrón simétrico de la huella ha sido diseñado para minimizar el ruido y ofrecer un andar tranquilo. Cuatro canales circunferenciales anchos trabajan en conjunto con ranuras laterales, para ayudar a evacuar agua del área de contacto con la carretera, de esta manera, se aumenta la resistencia al deslizamiento sobre agua (hydroplaning). Los bordes y pequeñas ranuras en los bloques independientes proporcionan tracción en condiciones mojadas. La tecnología "Winter Grip" utiliza ranuras con dientes serrados, para obtener tracción sobre superficies con nieve, mientras que, pequeñas ranuras tipo zigzag en los hombros, proporcionan tracción sobre superficies resbalosas.
La construcción interna del Discoverer EnduraMax ha sido diseñada para mantener su forma sobre superficies difíciles y disparejas, al mantener una presión pareja y contacto constante con la carretera. La tecnología "Armor Belt" proporciona correas de acero para camiones ligeros con mayor fortaleza, para hacer el neumático más fuerte; un refuerzo de nailon proporciona durabilidad y capacidad para rodar 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.

What’s the Best Touring Tire for Premium CUVs? – 2024 Test 2 – With Winter Update (22:11)
We’ve tested Touring All-Season tires before, but never like this! Eight Touring tires, the best of the best, both 3PMSF branded [all-weather] and traditional all-season options, take to the street and the track to see how they stack up. Using our new Alfa Romeo Stelvio to represent the popular CUV segment, TJ and Brent put these eight contenders through the paces on the road, on the track, and in the winter elements!
Ratings highlight excellence in the Cooper Discoverer EnduraMax, with customers praising its smooth, quiet ride (9-10 scores) and long-lasting treadwear (8-10 scores). Winter traction earns consistent praise for snowy conditions (8-10), though ice performance shows occasional 7-8 scores. Wet grip and hydroplaning resistance are strong (8-10), complementing standout dry traction (9-10) with responsive handling. Reviews emphasize reliability for crossover/SUV drivers seeking year-round capability, with many noting improved confidence in varied weather. While most categories show 7-10 ratings, a few mention modest ice traction limitations. Overall satisfaction is high, with customers frequently highlighting balanced performance across comfort, durability, and all-season versatility.

...They have much better wet traction and we had a snow storm not long after installing these and they lived up to their severe snow rating and did significantly better in light/deep and packed snow...
Installed these approximately 30 days ago/2500 miles in early February 2020. I previously had on Firestone FR710 which came new with the car from the dealer. I initially noticed that the tires were much more smoother and had better responsiveness to them. They have much better wet traction and we had a snow storm not long after installing these and they lived up to their severe snow rating and did significantly better in light/deep and packed snow. I felt much more safer with these tires combined with the AWD of the SUV.

Have only used had the tires a few weeks, but they have seen rain and snow on both city roads and the highway. They have performed great in adverse conditions and provide great traction on snowy backroads. They are also smooth and decently quiet in the highway. Previous tires were in a bad way, so the upgrade to these has been very noticeable. Have the same Coopers on another vehicle and have had the same positive experience there too.

I really appreciate being able to discuss my driving circumstances with Tire Rack to obtain an apt recommendation. Hydroplaning and wet leaves had been a problem. These tires handle that and my dirt road well. There is some noise on grooved freeway surfaces, but I only encounter that infrequently and Tire Rack warned me of that possibility. I like getting my tires at Tire Rack!

I only have 1000 miles on the tires but at the moment I am very satisfied. I moved off BFG tires because of puncture failures. The ride feels improved. I caught the end of the 2024 Thanksgiving snowageddon in NW PA. The tire performed amazing in the snow. I had an 80 foot driveway that was full of 2.5 feet of snow.

...Dry traction has been fantastic... When alone I drive the van far more spirited than with my family, and these tires have handled my 'faster than normal' cornering speeds...
I purchased these as part of a wheel/tire package. The folks at Tire Rack did a fantastic job of installation, from new TPMS sensors and balance, it was a great purchase. I have a little over 1000 miles on them, and so far so good. Dry traction has been fantastic and I have driven through some heavy rain and street flooding. I have not been able to force them into a hydroplane situation, so my confidence with these have been great. We haven't had any snow fall here yet, so I can't comment on that yet, but I feel they will be good to go when it does eventually happen. My van is a brick on wheels and not known for being a quiet van (with Stow and Go seats), so the first 400-500 miles I could hear a low humming noise from these tires (which didn't bother me). Now that I am a bit over 1000 miles, the humming sound has gone away (kind of liked that sound lol). When alone I drive the van far more spirited than with my family, and these tires have handled my "faster than normal" cornering speeds. I really can't complain about these tires and can recommend them to my fellow mini vans dads out there. I am hoping to get 4 years from these tires, with scheduled rotations.

Way better than the OEM tires... Tires performing as advertised and have improved the handling of the Tiguan...
Way better than the OEM tires. Have driven across the state of Colorado multiple times in all kinds of weather: Dry, Rain, Snow, mixed. Over passes, on the interstate, twisty two lane roads and in torrential rain. Have also made multiple trips up 10 miles of gravel road to get to a cabin at 8,000 feet. No hydroplaning, sliding, skidding or issues with traction in snow. Tires performing as advertised and have improved the handling of the Tiguan. Mileage is also better than with the original tires and not showing any signs of wear. Very happy with this purchase and would definitely buy again.

...Much quieter than the Continentals. Very comfortable ride...
Have only just gotten these tires, so not much info so far. Much quieter than the Continentals that were on the car from the dealer. Very comfortable ride. The choices of where we drive don't cover what we do: a mix of paved and dirt roads, plus in town, some highway. Would like to give more input after they've been in use longer, like late winter and next spring during mud season.

...They are very quiet and handle pavement transitions on bridges comfortably...
These are my initial impressions of the Cooper Enduramax tires for my wife's Crosstrek. I choose tires for family safety here in New England that have excellent wet and light snow performance ratings. If the price of the original Yokohama Geolander tires that came on the car weren't so expensive, I would have bought another set. They were still legal after 75000 miles but naturally we're getting a little hard and not channeling water as well. Many tires in this size have higher load ratings for heavier SUVs but I didn't want to compromise ride quality. So, what do I think? The straight through grooves are wider than I expected from the photos, so they tend to pick up and hold a few half inch or less pebbles. The upside is hydroplaning on a wash or large shallow puddle is non-existent. They are very quiet and handle pavement transitions on bridges comfortably. Tread squirm was a little disconcerting during break in but directional stability is good now. Only had one light snow storm so far and they handled it competently. Very few tire weights were needed to balance them but I now have detected a vibration at about 70 mph after about 1500 miles. Never had that with the Yokohamas. Overall a very good value. I'm 70 years old, and own a small collection of sportscars, racecars, and a few motorcycles. Trust these for your daily driver. Probably update my review in a year or so to let you know how they progress.

...Only have about 5k on them, as we waited a few months to get them installed... They don't make more than about average road noise (the Escape is not the most road-quiet car in the world), and seem to be wearing evenly with no abnormalities...
After doing a lot of research (and I mean A LOT), I finally settled on these tires for my girlfriend's '06 Ford Escape. They got good reviews from many sources, and the price was excellent. I took them to a local Pep Boys to have installed, and I haven't had a single issue with them yet. Only have about 5k on them, as we waited a few months to get them installed.
They are decently quiet and quite smooth on roads and highway, and don't seem to get too terribly hot. They don't make more than about average road noise (the Escape is not the most road-quiet car in the world), and seem to be wearing evenly with no abnormalities.
This is my first-ever experience with Cooper, and they seem to be a reputable brand. These tires don't seem to be the BEST (Michelin/Pirelli/Continental quality), but they are definitely a very nice step up from entry-level "value" brands. For the price, I don't think I could've found a better value with performance vs price. 60k-mile warranty seems pretty standard in this category, so can't really complain there.
I highly recommend these Cooper Discoverer Enduramax tires if you have a smaller SUV that doesn't need any kind of LT-style tire.
