Cooper's Stronghold AT: Built for Adventure
Large, go-anywhere truck-based campers and overland builds are having a moment right now—well, let’s be honest, so are large trucks in general. The demand for heavy-duty pickups like the Ram 2500/3500, Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500HD, Ford F-250/350 Super Duty, Jeep Gladiator Rubicon, and even the Ram ProMaster 3500 van is higher than ever. With this surge in popularity, the need for reliable and versatile tires has also increased. Enter the new Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT, a tire designed to meet the demands of today's heavy-duty trucks and overland builds.
Introducing the Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT
The Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT is now available in E and F load ranges for wheel sizes ranging from 16 to 20 inches. This tire is built to provide exceptional performance in a variety of conditions, making it a perfect choice for heavy-duty trucks and overland vehicles.
Snow Performance and Durability
One of the standout features of the Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT is its Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) rating. This rating indicates that the tire has been tested and proven to provide superior performance in snowy conditions. With this tire, you can confidently navigate rough and slippery terrain, knowing you have the traction needed to handle the elements.
In addition to its snow performance, the Stronghold AT offers a 60,000-mile treadwear warranty, ensuring long-lasting durability. Cooper has optimized the center of the tread for loose-surface traction, added ledges between the lugs to prevent rocks from getting lodged in the tread blocks, and included strategic siping for better snow traction and cornering stability.
Built for Adventure
If you've been following the recent trends in overland and camping rig builds, you'll notice that many are being built on 2500- and 3500-class truck chassis. These trucks offer significant load-carrying capabilities without being as enormous as Class 5 machines like the Rossmönster Baja Series. The Discoverer Stronghold AT is specifically designed for these types of vehicles, offering more choices for those looking to do a bit of everything with their trucks—or even their vans, like the Ram ProMaster 3500.
Trusted Performance
The Cooper Discoverer Stronghold AT is part of the well-regarded Discoverer AT tire family, known for its reliability and performance. Cooper, a sub-brand of Goodyear, has a reputation for producing high-quality tires that meet the demands of adventurous drivers. While we have yet to test the Stronghold AT on a heavy-duty truck, our experience with other Discoverer AT tires gives us confidence in its performance.
