Tires are designed specifically for different vehicles and wheel sizes. Tell us about your vehicle or the specific size you want so we can help find the right tires for you.

The Discoverer STT PRO is Cooper's Off-Road Maximum Traction light truck tire developed for the drivers of pickup trucks, Jeeps and SUVs who want confident, go-anywhere traction without sacrificing on-road performance. The Discoverer STT PRO is designed to provide impressive off-road capability combined with acceptable levels of on-road traction and civility.

Beginning with a robust, chip- and tear-resistant compound, the Discoverer STT PRO is molded into an aggressive, high-void tread pattern. Deep starting tread depths and alternating cleats and scoops in the shoulder lugs enhance traction in mud and other soft terrain, and mud release dimples help the tire self-clean. Anti-stone retention ribs at the base of the tread grooves eject small rocks to assist with preventing punctures due to stone drills. Wide lateral and circumferential channels aid hydroplaning resistance, and in-block siping creates additional biting edges for improved grip in slippery conditions.

The Discoverer STT PRO utilizes Cooper's Armor-Tek3 Construction technology, which features a robust, three-ply polyester casing to improve puncture resistance. Two wide, strong steel belts support the tread and are reinforced by a single nylon cap ply.

While Off-Road Maximum Traction tires, which are often called mud tires, are branded with the M+S symbol and able to churn through deep snow, their typical oversize applications and the relative absence of snow-biting sipes in their large lugs can challenge their on-road wintertime traction on packed snow and icy surfaces.

...Rock crawling mixed with wet mud on a 45 deg. incline...didn't even break traction with them aired down to 15psi...

I had a set of (5) 37/11.5/R17's on my 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL Unlimited Rubicon for 45,000+ miles (all 5 rotated every 10,000 miles) in every terrain South Louisiana can through at them. I also made a 3000 mile trip to Gatlinburg, TN to Buffalo, NY then back to New Orleans, LA in 5 days and they preformed flawlessly. These tires are amazing! Quietest road noise of any mud tire out there! They handle exceptional on road in daily driving, my 21 mile (one way) trip to and from work on highway was a Brees. The city roads and even the extreme pot holes on the streets of downtown New Orleans felt non-existent. The Off Road traction and capabilities of these tires are outstanding! Rock crawling mixed with wet mud on a 45 deg. incline...didn't even break traction with them aired down to 15psi. You want a tire that will give you (in my opinion) the best multi purpose use daily...Look no further!

NOTE: This was my first ever set of mud tires, didn't really expect to get 45,000 miles. I really should have rotated them much more often...I started to get some vibration in the front end around 35,000 miles. Now, part of this was do to not having adjustable track bars front and rear of my Jeep when I installed the 2" Mopar lift causing ware and tare. The other part was the tire rotation intervals...had I done them every 3,000 miles, I would have prolonged the life of the tires to 60,000 mile easily and prevented some of the ware and tare on the steering components. The uneven ware caused by the lack of rotations made the vibrations and noise in the tires to much.

I am quite impressed with this tire in deep snow which I spend a lot of time wheeling in both deep fluff all the way to very deep 2'+ spring snow where flotation and traction are king. I also feel that the rubber compound is soft enough to have good snow grip without siping, had a set of the original STT's that were not siped and they still did well in the snow...

I purchased this tire for a modified mostly dedicated off roading rig. I had the tires siped from the beginning which is not great for tire life if you have tire abusing lockers but helps very much in the ice and snow traction, also helps on slick rock. I am quite impressed with this tire in deep snow which I spend a lot of time wheeling in both deep fluff all the way to very deep 2'+ spring snow where flotation and traction are king. I also feel that the rubber compound is soft enough to have good snow grip without siping, had a set of the original STT's that were not siped and they still did well in the snow. I love this tire and will probably buy again.

...They drive well in wet or dry weather...

This is my second set. I got 40,000 miles out of the first set. I love the tires. They look killer on my truck. They drive well in wet or dry weather, light snow, ice and not too noisy for a mud tire. I haven't had it off road. Make sure to rotate often or tires will cup and you will have vibration issues that balancing won't fix. I will continue to buy these again!

...High mileage but still has decent traction on pavement...

About to buy my second set, absolutely the best mud tires I have ever purchased, High mileage but still has decent traction on pavement. These tires have taken on some of the worst roads I have ever driven on, everything from sharp rocks to sand and mud with no cuts or chunks taken out. I will buy these tires til they stop making them.

My second set of the SST Pro's and still am very impressed with the ride comfort, handling in all terrain types, and longevity. Noise is a little loud but that's expected with such an aggressive tire. Constantly get complements on how they look. I got about 55k on my first set. I've driven over snow covered donner summit and never had any trouble with traction. They're on the expensive side but definitely worth the investment.

...I'd say the biggest sacrifice you need to consider when purchasing this tire is how much do you value quite ride and comfort?...

Tires looks are second to none! Best looking tire for a truck period. Tire is used for mainly daily driving with the idea of weekend warrior and some. For a daily driver, it's not a bad at all for an off-road tire. I'd say the biggest sacrifice you need to consider when purchasing this tire is how much do you value quite ride and comfort? Highly recommended running what the vehicle manufacture tire pressure specs are in these tires. Place I had install the tires recommended me to run these at 55psi . After a year i decided to put it back to 32psi and what a difference!! I have put about 45,000 on these bad boys and i still have 10.5/32 of tread left. If you like compliments buy these tires!!

...ultra quiet...

COOPER truck tires are the best kept secret in off road tires. Unbelivable quality, tread life, ultra quiet and can make a mediocre 4x4 a trail monster. Economically priced. I learned of these tires when my buddy lifted his new DT Ram and was floored at how killer they are!!!! Ive bought COOPER in the past and always had terrific luck, but when putting tires on 4x4 pickup with a lift kit I only would buy BF Goodwich All Terrain K/O's, Goodyear MT/R Kevelar or Mickey Thompson Baja's. These COOPER truck tires are just as good and better in a few areas.

This tire is great. Everything it promised to be. Good looking, long tread wear, puncher resistant. The only thing I can think off as a negative is they are noisy and need to be rotated as required. I will buy them again and again.

...Wear has not been noticeable in the 4000 miles I have driven them...

I have been very happy with these tires. I drive mostly highway to work but try to get off road on the weekend as much as possible. Noise on the highway is noticeably louder than stock which is to be expected. They are quieter so far than I expected with the size of the lugs. The off road performance has exceeded my expectations. I have done mostly hardpack, sand, and light mud. I have not encountered a situation where I was disappointed with traction. I plan on replacing these with the same tire again. Wear has not been noticeable in the 4000 miles I have driven them. I usually air down to around 15psi when I hit the dirt. I have these paired with some method 702 wheels so I will be trying to air down a little bit more at a time to see how they perform at a lower pressure.
