Been using AT3's for years. First set had >60k miles when they were replaced. I have around 10-15k on the new set and are still going strong. They are rotated around 6-7k miles and are Range E's.

Keep the tires air pressure to spec and rotate them and you will get the mileage out of them. They are also great in snow & ice.

Great tires!!!

My guide i Wyoming had them on his older Explorer sport truck. Rain, light gumbo, rocks, steep up and down, and he used 4-wheel drive a total of about 15 minutes over four days. I'd say they work.

These are the Cooper Discoverer AT3 LT's, E range. Going to wait a bit as I am not driving much right now.... If Michelin goes on sale then I will pick the Defenders. If not then the Cooper's. Thanks all for the input. I know the folks here actually own them and drive on them. Web site tire seller/company reviews not so sure.

I had them on my truck and after a while they would shake rattle and bounce at highway speeds. I did the opposite, I went to Michelins and never went back. The difference was night and day for road travel. The coopers vibrated on the front no matter how well they were ballanced. As soon as I got Michelins, it stopped. They have lasted longer, too. You get what you pay for.,

I've had 2 sets. I didn't get a ton of miles out of either set but they were decent for the money. I have Toyo's now and like them allot more.

I like the AT3. They are my winter tires. Got hankook mounted on other rim's. Hate the hankook tires. They wear well but suck IMO for mud.

I just had good luck with coopers.

The Tundra I bought has Mastercraft? tires on it. I really like them.

It seems that Copper tires wear out faster then some.

My Coopers (ST Maxx) were done after 30k miles. Just put on a set of the Falken AT3W’s. Ride/noise is good at this point (only about 500 miles). They were $217 each for 295/70r18. About $110 cheaper (per tire) than the Cooper’s.

I don’t mind spending extra for tires that LAST (Michelins), but not for 30k mile tires.

These are on a 2015 Ram 3500.
