I have run two sets of Cooper Discoverer H/T Plus tires on my truck and have zero complaints. With the treadwear indicator suggesting I should get a new set of tires before winter I learned that Cooper no longer manufactures this tires, or at least not this version.

In searching for an alternative I have it narrowed down to the Pirelli Scorpion ATR or the BFGoodrich Advantage T/A, both in 265/60R18.

My truck sees mostly road use with occasional snow, but not enough to warrant dedicated winter tires. A few times in the spring I venture off pavement onto gravel/dirt mining trails to access old strip mine fishing ponds.

What was nice about the Coopers is they had a wide and squared off shoulder as opposed to a more rounded shoulder, which gave the truck a sporty look. Curious if anyone has first hand experience with either of these potential replacement options, and maybe even has a photo of their rig to share.

Thanks in advance.

I don't have any experience with any of those, but I'd go with the Pirelli's based on tire design, reviews, and is an all terrain tire as oppose to a highway tire.

Scratch that!

Costco is running a deal on Bridgestone tires currently. The Alenza AS Ultra appears to be a decent tire and with all the perks (free rotation, roadside assistance, etc) plus the discount it is a pretty good deal. Anyone have experience with this tire?

Next month Michelin goes on sale at Costco, and while not quite as generous of a discount all the other Costco perks apply. The all-around best rated tire from Michelin is the CrossClimate2. While it is a great performing tire (have a set on an XUV), it is an interesting tread pattern that might stand out more on a Pathfinder, with the larger wheel well, than on an XUV. Anyone have experience with this tire on the R51?

It's an usual tread design, for sure, the CC2. I think they belong more on an cross over SUV.

IMHO you get a superior tire, in a Michelin. I guess the gaps are getting more narrow now.
If you purchase a Costo Michelin brand, you get an extra year warranty on that same Michelin tire.

I purchased Costco Defender takeoffs, and have now two years on them. Honest to G, - I can not tell if they have any wear on them. I rotate tires myself and they look like new.
