Cooper - ATR vs ST?

archwayanimal · May 17, 2011

Looking to change my current tyres - Grabber TR - to something a bit more forgiving on the tarmac. My 110 spends most of its life on the road rather than off (90%), so need something quieter and less harsh! Have been steered towards Coopers, but can't decide between ATR and ST. Anyone use ATRs? Assume these are more road-oriented but not totally useless if/when I need to venture off-road (albeit nothing too extreme!)

Thanks in advance.

Been told coopers hard to get hold of.

Sounds like ATR's are the way forward, but agree they are hard to find - spoke to Cooper supplier who told me he can't get them.

Other option could be Toyo Open Country A/T or H/T but have not found many comments on these...

Decided to go for the new Grabber ATs instead. Does not seem to be much written about these yet so looking forward to trying them out...

ST Discoverer are the way. I`ve had a set on my Defender for 3.5 years. Rotated them every 10,000 kms and are still in good nic. I haven`t even had to rebalance them on rotation. Probably going to get about 75,000-80,000 kms out of them, and they are brilliants on the tarmac!:cheer2:
