I have a 2001 D2 with an OME medium duty in the front and heavy duty in the rear. It might have given a 1” lift when it was first installed but I consider it to be at stock height now.

I am looking at replacing my current worn out tires they are stock size which I don’t mind but they are very old and dry rotting. I am thinking about getting the Cooper Discoverer A/T because they are cheaper but they don’t have stock size but they have 265/60/18.

First of all would this fit? And second, has anyone tried these or do you have any recommendations for under $200 a tire?

265/60r18 will fit fine. I have run 265/65r18s with no rubbing, and as large as 275/65r18 with no rubbing on the street and minor rubbing off road.

The Coopers are a fine tire, I've run a couple sets. I'm generally unimpressed.

Iin your price range, I'd recommend looking at the Kenda Klever AT2s (linked below). I've never personally run them, but they are a *very* similar tread to the Falken Wildpeak AT3W which I've run 3 sets of and loved. I nearly got a set of these Kenda's for my most recent set, but got a set of Dick Cepek tires instead. I've really liked the Dick Cepek a as well, but they're closer to $220 in that size.

Thanks for the advice, how often are you going off roading? I probably go 5-10 times a year. I like the tires you shared.

what do you mean by generally unimpressed by the Coopers?

 

I run 265/65r18 for over a year now on OEM suspension without any issues except the speedometer shows exact speed or 1-2mph less at freeway speeds.

 

Great. I have just purchased my tires and they will arrive on Monday and I’ll let you know the fitment!

 

I go offroading roughly once per month, so about the same amount.

I've found the Coopers behave a lot like an all season tire instead of an all terrain, except they're also not very good in the rain. I had more trouble with them hydroplaning than any other truck tire I've ever ran. Particularly once you reach about half tread the performance really drops off, more than most tires I've run.

 

I'd be really surprised if these fit on OEM shocks..especially at full lock... keep us posted.

Shocks don't effect tire fitment. Springs are what determine ride height.

 

My Bad not sure why I said that lol.

I’d be surprised if those tires fit on a stock suspension set up…with out rubbing at full lock.

keep us posted
