Re: Cooper Discovery AT tires any good?
Obviously, the Tire debate could go on forever.... I'm looking at
replacing the original GY GSA's on my '03 TJ, which by the way, have
treated me extremely well. I would rate them very good overall,
although I haven't had them in more than 5 or 6 inches of mud, the
performance in 16 inches of snow is commendable. 36K miles on them
and they've still got 10+K left. As I understand, GY is discontinuing
most sizes of the GSA with the exception of the 30x9.50/15. I'd like
to move to 31x10.50's and I am looking at BFG AT's and the
Bridgestone/Firestone AT REVO. I am very familiar with the BFG
product as it has been around forever, but does anyone have an opinion
on the REVO? Consumer Reports rates them as "excellent", but I'd like
to hear what the folks here have to say as I trust the judgement of
<some> fellow Jeep owners.

Re: Cooper Discovery AT tires any good?
I put the AT Revo's on my TJ about a month ago. Went with the 31" variety.
So far I love them... haven't had them offroad yet, but have heard reports
from a few people at work who also have them that they perform well (they're
running them on everything from full-size PUs to Nissan Frontier's).
They're definitely better than the GSAs in the rain... my GSAs were horrible
in wet weather. That's one of the main reasons I switched since my TJ is
my daily driver.
Here's a pic of my TJ w/ 31s and a 2" RE Budget Boost:

Re: Cooper Discovery AT tires any good?
I have no complaints about GYs. My OEM GY Wranglers lasted 48K on my '99 TJ
with no problems whatsoever, and they probably would've lasted another 8 or 10K
had I kept them on. I changed them because the tread was getting a little thin
and I wanted to avoid any "surprises." (I hate surprises.) I'm currently
running GY Wrangler GS-As and haven't had a problem in the 10K since I put 'em
on, and I've run them through some pretty rough terrain. We had a foot of snow
here in KC about a month ago and I got around just fine -- much of the time in
2WD. They are a little noisy, but they're great tires.
