I had a set of BFG AT tyres on my last Discovery, which were very hard wearing, very tough. But they also hit my economy quite badly, and once they wore past 10,000 miles the compound became harder and they became noisy. So when I needed a set of tyres for the current Discovery I decided to look at the new Cooper ST Maxx and the Goodyear Duratrac. I found a very good price on the ST Maxx at £100 each and after reading extensively I bought a set. I have to say I'm delighted. The tyres are exceptionally quiet despite the aggressive tread. They self clean nicely and I've never been stuck when venturing offroad. On tarmac they grip exceptionally well and are very reassuring. I've never lost traction even in horrendous rain and greasy roads. I have to say I'm a steady driver but even so I reckon these are exceptional and can't recommend them highly enough.

Changed from 18ins to these better on the road and off and very little road noise for a AT tyre

The only car on the trip to Romania that did not need the help of others when driving in deep mud, I can't say anything about durability yet, it looks great, I chose it because of the unavailability of Duratrac GY and I really don't regret it.

Tyres bought with the idea that they are most suited to a US car. Aggressive AT. I read a lot of reviews before buying - from USA and Australia. The price convinced me too - a tyre with character, plus just what I needed. It grinds mud nicely and is a lot of fun to drive - it wears out slowly - it grips reasonably well - compared to HP road tyres it rumbles at low speeds

I am satisfied with the choice I made. The noise level is more than acceptable, a little deficient on wet asphalt. off road it deals well with mud and withstands the roughness of the ground without problems. good longevity.
