    I was looking at Cooper ST Maxx not AT3. Looks like the BFG may win the argument !

    I'm happy if I get 40 -60,000kms out of a set. I get Pissed off when you just wear (f#@k) one tyre out I'm a big fan of the BFG,s but also had a good run out of some of the cheaper AT's out there.

    One requirement with the replacement for the Safari was I had to be able to fit 15" rims. Can put on new rims and tyres for probably less than you'll pay just for tyres.

    perfect for one is not perfect for the other, but for a average budget tyre mostly used on the road but needed to grip up off road when needed the Kumho KL78 would be one of the top tyres, thats based on what tyres i have had, i wouldnt hesitate to buy them again.

    sounds like the shop you bought them off might be pulling you're tit and cant be assed doing it properly for you,the guys that sell the coopers are a brilliant company to deal with I haven't had a issue yet that couldn't be resolved

    MM, what are your thoughts about the Cooper AT3's slipping in the wet? Do you get that feedback from your customers?

    had some deal tyres had to be rotated wheel balanced every 5000 by cooper agent, if you went over the kms warranty void drive on gravel warranty void, they wore out in half the time kuhmho kl78s did abit dodgy in the wet average off road. for the money spent not worth it.

    I got the at3 coopers 246/70/16's 4000km ago and I really rate them I drive mainly on narly gravel/ rock base and they have shown hardly any wear .I took it easy for the first couple hundred km on the tarseal until they got bedded in and they are as good as the Goodyear silent armours I had on which only lasted 20km from new. The at3 is also good on our slippery Ingham Brite on farm and are good on wet grass as well. The road noise is slightly more than the silent armours but they are slightly more aggressive so not a biggie. The tread depth is huge . I definitely rate them.
