    Was wondering if anyone with Cooper Discoverer AT3 LT tire size 265/70/R17 in load range C if they have the 3pmsf?

    I heard only certain sizes of the LT version are snow rated. Thanks

    Take a Look at the Cooper Rugged Trek on tirerack. I just got them Installed and love them so far. Quieter than the Wildpeaks I used to have and work great in the summer thunderstorms so far. They also have a 3 peak rating. The shop had no problem balancing the tire either.

    I got 265/70/17 on my truck. They have selectable side walls too (knifes or mountains)

    Hopefully Cooper AT3s are better than the Cooper ATRs I ran several years ago. They sucked in snow and were nearly worn out after only 18K miles.

    Those look nice, I ended up getting the Cooper AT3 LT size 265/70/R17 in C and they are snow rated. I read up on the Rugged Trek and they seem more of an off road all terrain tire. I got the AT3’s because I heard they are more of pavement driven all terrains and I’m usually on pavement more than 90 percent of the time. I heard they were also really good in the rain since it rains a lot in NC so went with those.
    Really liking them so far.

    The previous owner of my truck had on p rated Kumho Road Ventures AT51 on before, they were good tires for the price also, but it was time to change them.

    I’m not sure since the previous owner had them on before I bought the truck. I put about 15k miles on them myself though.
