245/60R18 Cooper Discoverer Road+Trail AT.
traveled 228 miles to San Luis Obispo on stock tires was averaging 37.4 MPG. I got the new cooper tires while I was there. Traveled back averaging 36.9 MPG! Not that big of a loss and I love the look of the tires!

That looks great!!!

How are they for road noise?

I went from the stock Contis to Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws and can't tell the difference but I'm not very sensitive to tires like some folks (like my brother).

I haven’t noticed any difference in road noise! I definitely drove with the radio off to see if I heard anything though

Those tires are a perfect match for the Maverick! Great looking truck.

Good choice. Now that Good Year owns Cooper that tire series was redesigned. I can say that the ride is good and the tire is quiet.

These are the stock black appearance package wheels. I really like them

Those are exactly the same tire and size my uncle has on his 22. Great tire. He has a decent amount of miles on them and still look great and he loves them.

With the larger tire circumference of the 245/60r18 tires the odometer will be off by 3.3%. That means when your odometer shows you travelled 100 miles you really travelled 103.3 miles. That’s going to affect your mpg calculations so your mpg probably didn’t drop as much as you think.

Sweet. Thank you for posting this. I’ve been curious about the impact on mpg adding decent tires would have.
Looks amazing and you’ll have plenty of grip anytime you need it.

Discount Tire doesn't carry this model... Where can I find information on it?

Another question... Discount Tire seems to have a bias against Cooper.... are of their tires are rated 'Better', but none 'Best'.

Odd.

I got them at The Tire Store in San Luis Obispo. But I’ve seen them at American tire depot and tire rack. I found them on Amazon also

I never liked the way the stock tires looked on my truck. I’ve heard a lot of good things about the cooper discoverer AT3 4S tires. These are the predecessor to those. I’m very happy with them. Got them for $900 out the door. Plus there was a rebate.
