Default Discoverer STT tires

Does anyone have any opinions on these tires? I am in the market for new 18" tires and I really like the style and size for my Disco 2 with a 2" Rovertym lift kit. I read that the Nittos wear fast. I also like the BFG AT's but really like what I've read about the Cooper STT's on the UK forums. Thoughts?

Default RE: Discoverer STT tires

I work for FedEx Home delivery and I use the Cooper ST-C on the drive axle of my Sprinter and I really like them. I will be buying a set of 4 for my D1 pretty soon.
They are good in the snow and mud. When I get stuck on ice I just spin the tires around 20 mph and melt the ice down to dirt and then away I go.
We burn through rubber and these have lasted longer than the Michlins that came on the van.
