Got back last week from a 2 month trip and thought I would give some
feedback on how the Cooper STT’s had performed. They are 245/70-17’s and are on a 120 series Prado TD that was loaded up and towing a 1.4 tonne (when loaded) camper.
So far I’ve done 3,000kms on tracks and 10,000 on the black top and I’m quite pleased with how the STT’s are going. The off road traveling from
Melbourne included the
Flinders ranges, the east and west MacDonnald ranges, the Plenty hwy and central Qld, with no punctures on the dirt. I did pick up a nail in
Burleigh Heads. I ran 30 rear and 23 front (cold psi) on the Plenty hwy.
The tyres are showing some stone cuts in the tread and have the odd small bit of the tread missing from the sharp stones but they still have all the lugs attached. If they continue to go as
well as they have so far, I’d buy them again.
Cheers Anthony
And btw, I don’t have any interest or affiliation with Cooper, or any other tyre brand or reseller etc etc…

Well done Anthony,,
When we did the Plenty,
Oodnadatta,
Birdsville track and
Walkers Crossing road in '06, I was running 22-25 psi in mt Cooper ATR's, and 15 psi, in sand.
Never had a issue with punctures, sure there are a couple of cuts, and chips, but look at the service I have had out of these Coopers, and I cannot bag them, only the ride in the Navara.
Just clocked over 100,000 on them,,
Doing fine
Check out my post,,, ThreadID: 53295
