I find a lot of the time when people are complaining about the traction of them that the problem comes back to the pressure that they are running in them.
Most tyres you would run 36-40 psi , whereas with the Coopers I have found that running 32 up the front and 30 in the rear (if it spends most of the time with no weight on the deck) eliminates most of the problems.
The Cooper has a true light truck casing so you don't want to be running them as high as most other brands otherwise they will jump around and not have a good contact patch with the road.
Another one of the problems is that a lot of people forget that the utes of today go like a cut cat and are expecting far to much out of A/T and M/T tyres without lifting off the loud pedal.
