I have an 02 limited with 17 inch rogue rims and im looking for an affordable AT tire. I also, have a 2 inch BDS lift. I'm looking at the Cooper discover AT 3 any good? What size with my 2 inch lift? And what size fits in the spare tire well? 245/75/17 or 245/70/17. Not looking to burn a whole in my wallet.

Thanks!

Qbny94, I just got a set of General Tire Grabber AT2's and I could no be happier with them. I have put about a thousand miles on the so far, and they do no have terrible road noise, and work great off road.

No to mention I think they have a great stance and tough tread! Check out their ratings on tirerack and you will also see!

I have a 2" lift and the same tires. 245/75 16 and love them. On road and off they perform well.

Thanks i will look i do beach driving also and preferably i want white writing on my sidewall

[FaaipdeOiad]

Meant to put a close up also.

[FaaipdeOiad]

I put white on the inside. They come white on the other side. Although I love them I'll admit I really wanted the grabber AT2's but at the time they were on back order everywhere...

Im sorry to hear that! I was actually looking at those Coopers as well, but changed over when I saw the price. At Discount Tire I payed $160 a tire, mounted and balanced.

Actually, I just looked… the tires were the sst maxx

hey where do you go on the beach?? im going back home to visit for the 4th (im from southold, north fork) and i want to do some wheeling on the beach when im home, where can i take my rig? i got a 2.5" lift and skid plates so clearance really isnt an issue, and i got a set of grabber at2's for my jeep (havent installed yet) but im putting them on before i go home and then i can tell you how they do on the beach, i picked up some 265/70/16's for $160ea. check out www.discounttiredirect.com for good pricing on the tires they also offer free shipping on them

Now what size works with my BdS 2inch lift that wont rub? And which size still fits in my spare tire space? Dont know whether to get 245/75/17 or 245/70/17

245/70-17 is what you want.

Discoverer AT3 and Grabber AT2 are both great tires. The Grabber carries mountain/snowflake rating but the Discoverer has greater tread depth. Can't really go wrong either way though.

[hammerz71]

Agreed, you can't go wrong with either tire. Was at a trade show around the time Cooper released the AT3 and they were saying it's the first Cooper tire designed by the Mickey Thompson / Dick Cepek engineers who came over in the acquisition. That's a lot of off-road know how in them tires...

Been happy with my Falken rocky mountains.

I run Firestone Destination A/T's on my Ram 1500 and they are fine.

I don't have any experience with the coopers but just finished off a set of the grabber at2's. I got about 55k out of them and they were an awesome tire in everything but mud. That was the only reason I didn't buy them again. A couple of guys I wheel with were running the Goodyear authoriy's from Walmart and they would go through stuff I would never even consider with my grabbers. I never had any luck with Walmart tires in the past so I was pretty hesitant about getting them but a guy at my work runs them on a half ton Chevy. He's got about 20k on them and they look new. So I finally picked up a set and wow am I impressed. These things hook up in the snow, dirt, deep mud, everywhere I tried. I have about 15k on this set so far and they still ride and look great. Best part is they're only 160 a tire for my 31's. The only bad thing I can say about them so far is they hum a little on the highway but not real bad.

[hammerz71]

That's how I feel about the Nitto Terra Grapplers on my WJ. Damn good EVERYWHERE except mud, they cake up real fast - but then again they are an A/T tire. Without a doubt the best wet pavement tire I've ever run though...
