Most customers rate wet traction highly with scores of 9-10, highlighting reliable grip and hydroplaning resistance. Some 7-8 scores still show strong performance in rugged all-terrain conditions.

...Surprisingly grippy in the rain even with highway speeds. Only slippage I got in the rain was one specific turn I do when commuting back home from the gym - a right hand turn onto an uphill road and I would slip on the white strip for the crosswalk. Other than that, no issue in the rain.
So far I really like these tires more than the Discoverer STT. More because of the type of driving I do. Mostly road but will take on dirt/gravel roads. These are a great all terrain tire. Looks more aggressive without the loud knobby noise on the road. No issues or punctures with rocky trails in AZ. Mud isn’t too much of an issue as long as you’re in 4x4 or AWD.

Only slippage I got in the rain was one specific turn I do when commuting back home from the gym - a right hand turn onto an uphill road and I would slip on the white strip for the crosswalk. Other than that, no issue in the rain. Snow was tricky. Upstate SC got hit an ice/snow storm early last month and did fine for the most part in 3-4 inches of snow. Slow speeds and 4x4 engaged. However, when driving through UT at the beginning of this year, we drove through Spanish Fork mountain range and lost traction going down the mountain with maybe an inch or two of snow. Granted I was hauling a CRV and didn’t have 4x4 engaged. I lost traction when downshifting from 2nd to 1st gear. Could’ve ended real bad but managed to get back on the road and regained traction.
All in all, it’s a great AT tire and I’m pleased with the wear. I’m probably due for a tire rotation and ideally get them rebalanced. By the looks of it, I’m just getting to that first large wear bar on the outer tread. At this rate, I’m hoping to get 55k+. Will likely check back in once I’m due for a tire change.
Highly recommend these tires if you want excellent off road capability while maintaining a comfortable ride on the road.

Most customers report excellent winter traction, with snow and deep snow scores predominantly 9-10. Ice traction receives strong 7-10 ratings, though a few lower scores highlight variability in extreme conditions.

I have used these tires on ice/ on snow/on dirt/ on dry, and wet roads, and there is nothing to complain about...
I purchased these tires to replace the factory 245/75/16 tires on my Tacoma. I was looking for a factory-spec size that provided more ground contact. I have used these tires on ice/snow/dirt/dry, and wet roads, and there is nothing to complain about. I tow trailers regularly and keep the tires at 40 psi, which keeps the truck very stable. MPG did suffer a little, but these tires will not disappoint. rotated every 5000 miles. Great on interstate or cruising backroads. Dropped summertime mpg from 21-22 down to 19-20 and winter from 20 to 18.

...We left at 7 am there was 4" on the ground with a lot more scheduled for later in the day. We effortlessly drove by multiple cars off the road and stuck in the snow. We even stopped a couple of times to offer help. Not once did we have problems starting back up, nor did we have issues slipping or sliding. The traction was always spot on no problems, mind you this is a road that has seen a lot of traffic weather related problems...
Ok this is a new tire for me. I've had Bridgestone tires for years. Bridgestone quit making the 265/70R-17 Bridgestone Dueler A/T RH-S TPC Spec SL model. The offered replacement from Bridgestone didn't look like it would work for a snow environment like we get at 5500 ft in pine mountain club, ca so on to Cooper their marketing video with the showing dry, wet , snow, and sand got me interested. At worse case I'd sell the tires with low mileage and get something else. So on to the fact that sold me. We get frequent and intense weather so when we get snow, we get snow. It can be ice on the bottom with a layer of slush then the snow cap. So with new tires installed. My wife and I had a scheduled trip to Beverly hills.

The traction was always spot on no problems, mind you this is a road that has seen a lot of traffic weather related problems.
Cooper tires have more than impressed me the snow handling was my primary driver but I have no issue with wet or dry handling . My one experience on sand was great after I dropped the tire pressure to 25 psi. The only condition I didn't check out was silt. On highway 17 going to Santa Cruz in winter when it rains, silt washes out to the road and well it turns into the slip and slide highway. Tire Traction can be nonexistant. I have no equivalent in southern california so i didn't test this even though someone from the bay area with these tires who drives 17 regularly could comment on this. Yes I would buy Cooper branded tires again no question!!! Over the years I've had Goodyear, Yokohama, Bridgestone and now Cooper's on my expedition. To date Cooper are the hands down winner.

Customers overwhelmingly rate the Cooper Discoverer Rugged Trek's dry traction as excellent, with most scores 9-10. High marks highlight confident grip and responsive handling in rugged conditions, aligning perfectly with its all-terrain design. A few 7-8 scores still reflect solid dry performance for intended use.

...Great traction. No complaints over here!
I was a huge fan of the Falken Wildpeaks but I wanted something slightly more aggressive but not as aggressive as mud terrains and it was the perfect tire. Price was decent and they wear great! (I cross rotate every 3k) no chopping or bring load on the highway. Great traction. No complaints over here!
