Has anybody heard anything about cooper tires. I was looking at a cooper wildcat 235/70/16 a/t. Just wondering if anybody had any experience with cooper tires.

Ok wildcat radial AT's are Dean tires which are made by Cooper tires, anybody heard of them?

I have run them on 2 vehcles. I really liked them on my 4runner. Had wildcat 31x10.5 They wore well, had good bite all around. Deep tread, I would guess 15/32 or better. Had a little hiway humm but I like that anyhow. Cant remember what they have for sipping but I remember "drift busting" in high school with the 4runner. They never let me down then, and I didnt know much then except "pedal on the right..."

I remember buying themin 1997 or 8 for $70 ea (31x10.5).

I looked at them online before I ordered my grabbers. Deanhas a lot of good looking tires. I never went far enough to price check though...

I dont know about Wildcats but I have the ATR's and I like them a lot. Havent had any trouble in rain, snow or offroad and the price was great. I would buy them again and you cant beat the price.

the atr's are good all around tires. I have had 1 set of the atr's, which replaced the at's (i've had multiple sets of the at's). they are both good tires and would recommend them to anyone for a good at tire.

I agree, I was going to switch to Firestone Destination AT's but I'm not going offroad enough to justify the price (Although they got great ratings onroad and there isnt that many reviews for ATR's). Looks like I will be sticking with the ATR's for my next set, at least for now.

Well I bought 4 Wildcat 235/70/16's and I am impressed. They really hold the road and their not any noisier than the stock tires that came with the KJ, at least not to me anyway. Deep tread, haven't been off road with them but I think I made a good choice.
