I've had 3 sets of Coopers on my last 2 trucks, after the originals wore down, no problems with any of them. I have roughly 10k towing on the A/T3's I put on last fall, so far so good. Went with the A/T3's as we live in snow country.

I had them on tow vehicle as well as trailer and another small Ford Ranger. All of the vehicles they were on had tire separation failure. Over 40% of them. Interesting thing was even my friend who uses a lot of tires for his rental yard said the same thing. I will never buy another Cooper anything.

I have had and used Cooper tires for years and have had a problem once years ago, they replaced the tire , with balance with no problem and apologized for any problems we had. I have Coopers on my Ford F150 now.

I had 2 sets of the AT3 and was very happy except for the milage, mid 20k on both sets.

Howdy!

I put Cooper tires on my 5500 Chevrolet MDT. Tire company tried three times to balance them and never could, they were out of round. I even put Centramtic tire balances on still could not balance them out. Tire company pulled all the Coopers and replaced them with Toyo's and my truck ran smooth as glass.

I've had Cooper Discoverer HT3s on my F350 for almost 2 years now with zero complaints. Went to the Coopers from Michelins.

If you belong to FMCA, they just signed an agreement that may save some money. Good luck!
