Geolander or bridgestone 694 are both a country mile in front of any Cooper. We have the ATRs on wifes Jack and I have 694 on my Jack. And we run Geolanders on a lot of work utes. Coopers last
well but are punture prone and dicey in the wet.

I had Cooper ATR's on my Hilux, not a good tire at all. I now have the Pirelli Scorpion ATR's, wow what a difference. I expect the Geolander to be up there as
well, the Pirelli's are an awesome tire and priced similar.

What size tyres are you replacing? If they are 18" go the Geo 12's I have them on my Pajero and after 30,000km still very good. Excellent in the wet. If you are looking at 16's" or 17" Go the BFG t/a they are by far the best all terrain 4X4 tyre. You will pay $300 to $330 each. With the Geo 12's they are $440 each. I have had Cooper tyres before & would not buy them again because there are better products for the $$$$$.

G`day,
"With the Geo 12's they are $440 each".
I don`t know if size makes a lot of difference in price, but I bought a set of 5 Geo GO 12`s A/T-S size 31x10.5x15 for $200.00 each F. & B. last May in
Bendigo.
Bought one in
Cairns last September fitted, and with a new Mag wheel valve insert for $220.00.
Geez that`s $240 less than your price of $440.00 for what size??
Regards
Scrubby.

G'day scrubby, Yes size does matter!!! LOL. My Pajero VRX came standard with 18" wheels & had
Dunlop Grand Trash on so I had the tyres changed to the Geo's. Trust me 18" Geo 12's are $440 each in Vic!! What annoys me is BFG's t/a's are $174 each in the USA to fit my 18" wheels. They range from $500 to $580 each...in Australia if you can get them. I need someone who imports stuff from the USA to PM me & tell me that they will get the BFG's for me!!! There is a very limited range of 18" tyres in OZ for 4WD's that's why new Pajero owners whose vehicle has 18" wheels reduce the wheel size to !7" when they order the new car. Monty
