I put 40,000 miles on these tires including three trips to Moab. The AT3's replaced a set of Cooper Discover ST/Maxx, 265/75R16, Load Range E. I have not driven in the snow with these tires and typically avoid snow when I can. They were good to very good in all conditions, including good pavement, bad pavement, graded roads, rocks, sand and mud, wet or dry. I recently completed a 3 week overland trip to Cabo San Lucas on Cooper Discoverer AT3, 265/75R16, Load Range C tires. I was thinking skinny tires with spacers would be better than wide tires with no spacers? I could see a wider tire working well for high grip slickrock type terrain, while from what I understand skinnier might be better for looser low grip surfaces?Ī big concern of mine is off camber situations and traversing side hills, I’ve got a pretty top heavy rig, not sure how much tire shape can help to alleviate that though. And a good amount in Moab area, so slickrock, sand, loose debris and sand over sick rock. My off-roading is typically in Colorado conditions like described above, the typical loseish soil, some wet/ slime. Otherwise I really wanted to try the st maxx. Weights a big factor on my underpowered right that’s why I narrowed down to the revo’s, coopers and wildpeaks.
#BRIDGESTONE REVO 3 VS FALKEN PLUS#
That plus I think i mistakingly ran the coopers at too high of pressure for the low weight of my rig and considering they’re 10ply, that could have been all the difference right there and maybe it wasn’t a factor of width.Īnyway I’m now deciding between a set of the same size revo’s or try the falken wildpeaks in 235/85, or in 4 ply 265/75. Now i think the bridgestone might just be a better tire, I’ve been super impressed with it. I didn’t do much serious off-roading in the coopers to be able to judge. I could cruise along in 2low in situations that I did not expect to be able to. with the bridgestone in similar terrain, loose soily gravely Colorado dirt, and loose baseball sized debris. I remember not being very impressed with the coopers in 2wd and not aired down, would get wheelspin pretty easy and have to go to 4 in spots I should have been able to pass sticking to 2. I’ve got bridgestone revo 3’s in 265/75, and had cooper at3’s in the past in 235/85 Cooper’s were 10 ply and bridgestone are 4. I’m looking at a few tires and in a few different sizes for my 16” wheels.
