Anyone have these? Had Cooper Discoverer ATs that were worn down to the rubber. Def want an aggressive tire. Tire dealer wanted to sell me Cooper Evolutions, to me they look like car tires or something that goes on a 2 cylinder crap crossover. I'll let you know how the Trailrunner ATs are on my Jeep soon

Tires mounted and balanced. Had them now for a few weeks. Great tires, and they really look good too

I have Cooper Discoverer AT3s on my WJ and they are really great in snow but I haven't tried them much in mud. They bite well on turf. I just bought a 2000 XJ that needs tires so I'm interested in your purchase.

The only time I had it in mud was on a trail with holes filled with large rocks so the actual traction was good. I figure in REAL mud the tread blocks would pack up right away. The best part that I like about them is they wear well on dry pavement too. I bought them for snow but run them all year because I don't want to spend the money for another set of wheels and tires for summer. They are supposed to last 40K+ miles but I only get around 30K because the way I use them. I deliver newspapers and there's a lot of low speed maneuvering, U-turns, K-turns, and start&stop driving. They are like $149 each mounted and balanced, free rotation, and hazard insurance. AND they are 16s!

the cooper at3 is one of the top 3 all terrain on the market. Doesnt surprise me that you have had a good experience with them. Thats pretty much par with what i hear from customers
