Cooper tires Query
It's time for tires for my GMC 2500 4wd gas
We pull a 7,500 lb (dry) 5th
Local shop promotes the Cooper brand , made in USA , good prices
We Have run them on our Jeep with good success
Any input on Cooper or your fav TV tire brand and why would be appreciated
Thanks

Cooper HT3 - LRE on our TV. Alittle less aggressive tread. Like how they handle/feel.

I've had Cooper's on an older truck in another state since 1998. They wear like iron and give good traction in the snow. Don't recall what model they are.

I appreciate the input from all
I'm leaning toward the Cooper HT3
I dont need an agressive thread and I like the low noise level of this tire
Made in USA, local service, good pricing
All good enough for me
Thanks 👍🏻

I have the Cooper Discoverer HTP on my truck and love them. The HTP is a unique tire and fro what I understand it isn't available in all parts of the country. They don't even show them on the Cooper website. I've herd they are made only for sale at Discount Tire in some regions, not sure how accurate that is. All I know is I got them from my DT for $150 each for my 235/80R17 LRE. I see a lot of people running them down here, probably because of the price. They are not the same as the HT Plus.
I used to only run Michelin MS2, but decided to try the Cooper because of the price. Best move I ever made.

I just got Cooper AT3s on a trail blazer. Only about 500 hundred miles on them. Already used on a logging road. They are like day and night compared to the "p" tires it came with. They are not loud at all in fact real quiet tire, so far. I do know tires get louder with miles, at least all traction tires I have had. The shop owner is on his 2 second set on a chev 3500. He pulls horse and TTs trailers.
