The Cooper Discoverer Winter tire is installed on crossovers, SUVs, and pickup trucks. It belongs to the High Terrain category. It is characterized by improved performance on snowy and wet surfaces.
The tread pattern is distinguished by a serrated profile of the vertical walls of the longitudinal drainage and the original shape of the so-called "snow" grooves. These features allow the tire to retain snow, thereby increasing traction on such a surface. In addition, the tread uses "three-dimensional" Micro-Gauge lamellas. The special profile of their vertical walls allows for very rigid restriction of block mobility, thereby increasing the stability of traction properties and accuracy of handling on slippery surfaces. The tread part of the tire is made from a rubber compound based on natural rubber and silica dioxide. In combination with the use of modern polymers, this allows the tire to retain elasticity at negative temperatures, along with increased strength and durability, improving resistance to mechanical damage and abrasive wear.
Key features:
- serrated profile of the vertical walls of the drainage and the original shape of the "snow" grooves improve traction on snowy surfaces;
- "three-dimensional" Micro-Gauge lamellas improve traction and handling on slippery surfaces, prevent overheating of the tire;
- rubber compound based on natural rubber and silica dioxide with special polymers retains elasticity at negative temperatures, reduces the risk of mechanical damage, improves resistance to abrasive wear.
