Supposedly they have a comprehensive review of Mud Terrain tires in that issue and I'm looking for what they say about the new Cooper Discoverer STT - as I'm looking to get those soon. So, if you have it could you paraphrase what they say in the mag.

Thanks,
John

If nobody gets to it soon, I'll give it a quick read when I get home this evening. IIRC, they are a good overall tire but have limited sidewall flex and not a ton of grip on the rocks. Exceptional fit and finish and rated as a decent dual purpose tire with more emphasis on moderate off road use. Best I can remember from the article as this moment. HTH.

Oops, yep, sorry. Basically what I posted is the meat and potatoes of the testing. The tire got a good overall review with the exception of being loose on the rocks. The assessment was compound as opposed to sidewall flex though. Shoot me an email if you want a scan.

BTW, the digeridoo project has had some progress lately... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
